Remember, Iran lost 2 million people and still wanted to persist the war..the USA lost 2 thousand soldiers and they already scheduling a retreat...

Iran v Iraq = 8 years & 2 million dead. No territorial gain

US v Iraq = 25 minutes to take the entire country. Saddam Hussein found hiding in a hole in the ground.

It's like comparing humans to dumb animals
