They don't participate in wars to win, it's all about dollars in the pocket.

Americans are the very model of the school playground bully. Notice too that those conscripted tend to come from what may be best described as the less advantaged levels of their society too. A few interesting matters and facts are now emerging with regards to the Jiwa flag image as well. Also remember the expression, ''the White Mans Burden''' is actually ascribed to the Americans and is a fine example even then of their current actions in trampling all over countries they wished and currently wish to colonise historymatters.gmu.edu/d/5478/

Desert storm I think they won. Saddam was ousted and the Iraqi forces quit. I'd call that a win.
Korea they won.
Afghanistan they basically won imo.
Ww2 They were part of the win.
