Overall quality of organizing a war was better then. Now this is just fucking circus with a president that struck the bottom of morals and logic. I do not advocate for the USA, but all the wars before, at least, we're not looking so dumb. It may be my perspective, though.

Lol. The only reason this doesn't happen now is because US soldiers haven't made it to Iran. I would guarantee that raping would exist now as well. I meant that the whole picture of war was portrayed better and the government didn't act like a circus. It just acted as a set of dipshits.
