Iraq.
Vietnam made sense as a war. The United States was fighting its enemy, the Soviet-backed North Vietnamese. The only reason why Vietnam is seen as a disaster is because America LOST. If America had won, it'd be viewed the same way Korea is...because it's pretty much the same war as Korea except America lost.
Iraq...never made sense. What would victory in Iraq have even been?
The comparison of the two wars is silly but only possible because baby boomers have such a narcissistic obsession with Vietnam being the worst war ever. If anything, it's far more justifiable than the MAJORITY of stupid wars America has fought (Mexican, Spanish, Philippines, WW1, Iraq)
