History records that the US has been involved in nine world wars as a sovereign nation and as part of the British Empire. Two wars, however, seem to be ignored by historians and political scientists as world wars. The Cold War, contrary to popular opinion that it was a none shooting war, was a global ideological war fought on many fronts. And yes, there was shooting involved. Don't think so? Try asking the 58,000+ who gave their lives in Vietnam. The Cold War lasted from 1945 till 1990-92. The Cold War deserves the designation of WWIII.
The War on Terror is an ideological struggle between the forces of democracy and the forces of a controlling and vengeful,hating Islamo-Fascists ideology that has but one goal: destruction of freedom and liberty. The War on Terror deserves the designation of WWIV.
