We've been fighting a world war since 2003. Think about it. With the start of Operation Iraq Freedom, this conflict has affect all of Europe, the United States, All of the middle east, and of course now Asia is getting affected because of North Korea's scandal of Nuclear war weapon testings. South Korea is on its toes waiting for an attack, and China is backing up North Korea. Vietnam is on the verge of another civil war because communism is eating up the economy. And with the fall of that trading agreement with the US, Vietnam will be going through a depression (not like it hasn't since the fall of the French) \n\nSo if you think about theoretically we've been in a world war. Everyone is in some ways connected to Iraq.

try "The Great War For Civilisation" by Robert Fisk.  You will need to go back further than 20 years too as the current problems are rooted in the decisions made after the first and second world wars.  This book covers other countries in the Middle East too.

Sad but true, all wars since world war 2 have been conflicts. from korea to iraq. every generation has seen war. or as the gov calls it conflict. tell a soldger that korea, vietnam, panama, iraq 1, iraq 2 is not a war. i wouldnt but the gov would. they would tell them it was a conflict. messed up i think.

always that fear of civil war again. but as for disagreements, every country has them. can't make everybody happy. always the discontents. but this country has too much to offer, for it to break up. too many checks and balances.

Here are lots of things that happened.  I don't think they are called current events when they happened thirty years ago though!

yep....considering that way back in the day, things were documented like they are now...I'd say people are making things up as they go when it comes to certain things in history.

Because a lot of world powers(the US, Germany, China, Italy, etc) were fighting in the war, and it wasn't just one country against the other.
