Only WWII and Afghanistan for sure. The Persian Gulf war had removing Saddam Hussein been one of the prequistes to success. The Civil war I need to more on before commenting. The Korean, Somilian and Revolutionaries wars.. Maybe.

Bosnia and Kosovo should have been dealt with by the Europeans.. with ground troops. It's a joke we had to depend on Clinton. But given the circumstances, yes.

All the others, no.

NO to all the wars we or the side we supported lost.

What about the War of the Pacific?

[King]

What about the War of the Pacific?

Did we support Chile? If so, then yes.

[Boris]

Or the Philippine-American War?

[Tetro Kornbluth]

Iraq-Iran War Yes - put the Shah back on the throne

While no fans of the Ayatollahs.. I must be hackish here and ask "why do you hate freedom?"

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Iraq-Iran War Yes - put the Shah back on the throne

While no fans of the Ayatollahs.. I must be hackish here and ask "why do you hate freedom?"

The Shah is definitely the lesser of evils here.

While no fans of the Ayatollahs.. I must be hackish here and ask "why do you hate freedom?"

The Shah is definitely the lesser of evils here.

While I've never known an Iranian who disagreed, surely the best option would have been to reinstall the pre-Operation Ajax Iranian Parliament and goverment system and call fresh elections.

Actually we should add CIA special ops and projects to this list:
Operation Ajax: No
Operation PBSUCCESS: No
Operation Gladio: Should have been done differently
Operation FUBELT: No
Operation Chaos: Hahaha.. No
Operation Charly: Good god no
Operation Cyclone: In retrospect, No, but at the time - Maybe
Project Minaret: Surely this was unconstutional, but then again the CIA has never cared about such trifling things.
Project MKULTRA: Uhhh... No.

If you don't know what these are... there's always Wiki.
