Here is some easy math regarding the wars that were spawned after September 11, 2001.
We have not been at war for just 13 years.
The Iraq war lasted 8 years, 8 months, 3 weeks and 4 days.
The war in Afghanistan began on October 7, 2001 and is ongoing. Today the Afghan war is 11 years, 11 months and 4 days old.
That is a total of 19 years, 19 months, 3 weeks and 8 days.
That is equal to 20 years, 7 months, 4 weeks and one day of war.
It is 20 years of failed nation building as well.
