It was similarly stupid, unnecessary and tragic.

Oh my, get some perspective. WWI was the war to end all wars.

Everything is similar, but not necessarily similar enough to warrant comparison.

Again, historian here and you know shite about the origins and the reasons why WW I was fought and its necessity. Therefore, respectfully STFU.

Iraq War is much better compared to one of Britain's many dumb imperial wars of the 19th century.

...yet Iraq was far less impacting to global power balance, at least in immed. term. By contrast, we STILL deal with results of WW-I. Our being in Iraq IS a long-term consequence of WW-I. Read abt how Churchill carved up middle east after WW-I, how he set the stage.
