How many wars involved Communists?

How many wars involved the Capitalists?

As far as I can tell, most wars are driven by Communism or Fascism. Free Market Capitalism doesn't do well in war.

Edit: The above statement doesn't take into account Imperialism of course. Dead subjects are better addressed by historians.

Can you match this list with communist and fascist wars?

:

  • Vietnam (US invaded when it was a capitalist colony of France)
  • Cambodia bombing campaign (the reason for the kmer rouge
  • Laos bombing campaign
  • Korean war
  • Easy Timor
  • Iraq 1
  • Iraq 2
  • Syria
  • Afghanistan
  • Chinese civil war (US supported opposing Independence, created Taiwan)

I only used US campaigns. Feel free to use all other sources.

You won't convince me Capitalism is evil by criticizing a fascist state.

edit: possibly i misunderstood your intention

The US is fascist?

[–]sawboss[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

yes, and has been since at least the early 20th century.

That's interesting.

I don't disagree.

I can't criticize communism though, as to date it's a complete myth. There hasn't been a communist society that I'm aware of, in any true sense.

They've been labeled (or self labeled) communist though; in the same sense that the US is a capitalist democracy.

Oligarchy had gone unnoticed.
