I'd argue that the Iraqis did not resist to the same degree as the Ukrainians, nor were they as well supplied by outside parties.
most wealthier nations did not have the same level of economic interest in Iraq to try to assist it.
i think this is a huuge understatement.
Did any country actually assist iraq in any fashion?
Right, but not during the war.
I feel like it's apples and oranges. The US and Russia are not on par militarily, the Iraqis and Ukrainians did not share the same level of enthusiasm, and most wealthier nations did not have the same level of economic interest in Iraq to try to assist it. It's a drastically different scenario.
In 100 hours, U.S. and allied ground forces in Iraq and Kuwait decisively defeated a battle-hardened and dangerous enemy. During air and ground operations, U.S. and allied forces destroyed over 3,000 tanks, 1,400 armored personnel carriers, and 2,200 artillery pieces along with countless other vehicles. This was achieved at a cost to the United States of 96 soldiers killed in action, 2 died of wounds, and 105 non-hostile deaths.
If I recall, they were touted as having the 4th best military in the world, or some shit like that. The constant blathering in the media how this fight could be a bloodbath for both sides just showed how ignorant of military power applications they could be. Just because a country has divisions after divisions of T-72 tanks (for example) doesn't mean shit if they don't have all of the other factors to support it. Little details like air superiority, command and control, communications, training, technology, layered defenses and proper leadership were non-existent in Iraq. The Desert Shield portion of the war was a godsend for military planners as it allowed us to perform intelligence analysis and strike order preparation for six months leading up to the actual incursion into Iraq.
Euromaidan Press on Twitter:
The kh22 missles which Ukraine doesn't have, which can only be launched from a tu22 strategic bomber which Ukraine doesn't operate hit Ukraine with multiple video(s) and it was zelensky doing a false flag attack.
You can't make up the crazy conspiracy shit havax, samuwell, and data dream up.
These types of cuckservatives look up any conspiracy to fit their idealogy.
