Well, let's talk about this.
Afghanistan - al qaeda (which is called "the base") has lost it's "base" in Afghanistan and has no longer been able to mount another attack like 9/11. So, mission accomplished there.
Korea - Our goal was to stop the communist controlled section of Korea from taking over the entire Korean peninsula. Sixty years later and... South Korea is flourishing and doing great, and the communists never took over. Again, mission accomplished.
Iran - Did we go to war with Iran. Did I miss that?
Iraq - Our goal with Iraq was to remove Iraq as a threat to Kuwait, and then to remove Saddam from power. Iraq is no longer a threat to anyone, Kuwait is safe, and Saddam and his political party is no longer in control. Once again, mission accomplished.
Bosnia, Kosovo.... I couldn't even tell you much about these countries. I don't recall the US sending in hundreds of thousands of troops, nor even being in charge - that was a NATO thing.
