So I am majoring in History I am taking an extensive amount of history classes 4 out of my 6 classes to be exact. Anyways, one class in particular has captured my interest and that is American-Arabian History/Interests.

Also do you think, that the incentives we entered those wars apply to the reason why we entered Iraq in the present-day?

Right now, we are learning about the Barbary Wars (both of them), as well as WWII and Operation Torch. Can anyone compare and contrast American militaristic strategies within these wars in regards to the North African Islamic states?
