Afghanistan the longest fought war? NO. Not even close.

Firstly, is it even a war? And if so, the war is against who? Pretty sure it's not against the country of Afghanistan.

To me, it sounds more like an occupation - and if that's what it is, there's still many more years to go before it becomes the longest occupation; U.S. troops were in Vietnam somewhat longer (1964-1975; and that's not including smaller-scale troop involvement there dating back to the late 1950s) than Afghanistan.
