The war went well. The occupation and aftermath turned out to be a bigger challenge.
I mean, if you ask most people when the war in Afghanistan ended they're not going to say 2002 or whatever, so that's a bit misleading.
Maybe not the best person to ask, but...

If you ask congress it wasn't even a war.
yeah no. until there's a foreign invader, any act against the invader is war. war ends with the annihilation of relevant parties or when the invader leaves.
That's not what was said. The OP was quite blatantly talking about the invasion operations, not the occupational operations.
Your pedantry is unnecessary and unsolicited.
what you're talking about? I'm op of this comment thread, someone answered (in a pedantic way), I disagreed. what you on? I'm just happy that Ukrainians are alive because they didn't follow what appears to be wrong advice... sheesh...
Rather than bother trying to arguenwith someone who is blatantly trying to twist bad faith and pedantry I'll.just say this:
Ratio.
I'm in the wrong. never chat with someone so ready to slap adjectives and doesn't elaborate. I fall for it every time, my bad. ratio to you too - whatever you think it means.
