And no, neither the 2nd Iraq war nor the war in Afghanistan by coalition forces were "wars of imperialist aggression", notwithstanding the lies that led to the former and the catastrophic errors in its execution. Frankly, characterizing the latter that way in particular is insulting.
Well since we are being frank, I'll insult you further and say that if you believe that the Iraq war was anything but an imperialist war of aggression, you need to upgrade your education on the topic.
