Iraq and Afghanistan have both been failures, USA and UK troops are still dying there, almost by the day.
Iran will be a much worse failure, they are more technologically advanced than you think.

Iraq and Afghanistan is far from being a failure.... I love it when people call it a "war". It's not a war. A war when the armies of two governments fight each other. Seems to me that the governments we were once fighting are no longer in power. Now it's an occupation. What you have right now is terrorists attacking US troops.
I don't understand all of this talk about the US leaving. We went to war with these countries; We own them. We are still in Germany, Japan, and Korea. Pulling out of Iraq is the worst thing we can do; The moment we leave these terrorists will turn their attention fully on the new government of Iraq which will crumble, and then they'll focus their attention back on us - On the US mainland.
As for Iran.... Whatever. It will be another joke, the "mother of all battles" just like in Iraq. We have missiles we can launch from the US that hit Iran; We have planes they can't see and aircraft carriers off their coast. The president of Iran has less support than President Bush does. It will be more of what happened in Iraq; Their army will flee into the darkness and hide like cowards. And the missiles they just launched..... They have some decent range, but they aren't exactly accurate.
