Whats the most interesting conflict to study since WW2 and why

Yugoslav wars are interesting because they're one big shitshow with everybody fighting everybody.

Well it had a million casualties, electrified lakes, helicopter vs helicopter combat, huma wave attacks, massive uses of chemical weapons, and lasted 8 years.

Iraq's population was only 14 million at the time, Iran was 40 million. It's amazing Iraq managed to survive an 8 year attrition war and come out stronger than Iran

>>2489246
Iraq was honestly such a little bitch in this war, though. They just spammed poison gas whenever they were in trouble like a get out of jail card.

>>2489203
some more interesting conflicts

Falklands War
Rhodesia

underrated theaters of war during WW2
Norway
Poland
Invasion of Italy
Phony War

>>2489246
>Iraq's survival is amazing
>having been supported by literally every other country on the planet

Hmmm...

>>2489246
Everyone was supporting Iraq except Israel and Russia. And the war was going to end with Iraq getting curbstomped anyway until the UN got involved.

Korea is underrated

>>2489581
Soviets sent support for both sides iirc and so did Israel

>>2489581
Israel supported Iran, America supported both sides

>>2489220
The Lebanese Civil War is ever better in this regard.

>>2489220
future of the west right there

Syrian and Iraqi wars right now.

I'm a Swede, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it happened here within 20 years.

To the person that asked why: The politicians want muslims, the people generally don't. Now we've got hidden double societies of muslims frrom various parts of the world, they are stockpiling weapons, we Swedes don't like them, the politicians keep fucking up making everything worse at every turn, the muslims keep being muslims (raping and doing crime) the spiral of shit continues.

>and come out stronger than Iran
er what?
That war made the invasion of Kuwait necessary which ensured that a modern and developed Iraq was set back to caveman-tier

>>2489590
>>2489743
America did not support Iran.

>>2491235
What is Iran contra?

>>2490410
>muslims keep being muslims (raping and doing crime)
You sure you're on the right board?

>>2489581
>Stomped
Not really Iraq was winning by the end of it, and took back the small land that Iran managed to hold
If anything Iraq managed to advance in In land Iran but they gave it back for a peace treaty becausw they knew that the war went too far and was going to end costly regardless of who wins

>>2489203
It was the iran-iraq war because it is the war most similar to WW1 which is the actual most interesting conflict in human history

>>2491235
>iran contra

>>2489246
the international community refused to allow Iran to win, look at the tanker war

>>2489246
Population doesn't matter for jack, what matters is firepower. And in that area Iraq had an enormous advantage over Iran thanks to heavy backing from the USSR and France (not to mention invading right after the Revolution). They should've rolled up Iran effortlessly. Instead they got their asses kicked and were only able to force a stalemate at the end through a 5-1 advantage in planes, guns, tanks, and AFVs.

>>2491235
>conveniently forgetting that America secretly sold weapons to Iran so that they could use the money to secretly support a fascist genocide in central america
>why do people hate america anyway?

>>2492373
>a fascist genocide

Communists are not human.

>>2492507
Hmmm

>>2489203
you mean the afghan war

>ywn team up with a group of yanks, saudi sheikhs and muj fighters to curbstomp soviet invaders

>>2492507
what is the point of writing something like this?

>>2492141
Is he wrong?

>>2492372
>Population doesn't matter

Tell that to Germany and the USSR
