iraqinam

A pointless, costly, unwinnable war in the desert in 2003 that largely resembles another pointless, costly, unwinnable war in the jungle in 1969.

I'm so glad that the "shock and awe" tactics worked, and that we actually found the WMD's. I was worried that it would turn into Iraqinam!

Iraqnam

A noun used by War-in-Iraq naysayers to compare it to Vietnam, mostly because so many men have died and there appears to be no clear way out. Another example is that of the fact that, like in Vietnam, none of the soldiers are able to distinguish who is good and who is bad.

Man, that war Shrub's waging in Iraq is becoming an Iraqnam.
