How many US troops died in WW1 and WW2?
You should know this without looking it up.
Absurd attempt at comparison.
Absurd? We *are* in a world war against terrorists, Krause. Have you
not
noticed?

There's no evidence we're engaged in a world war against terrorists. If
we were, we'd be doing more to catch some than rounding up the usual
suspects in Iraq and Afghanistan.


LOL! *Your* very own link (in your initial post to this thread) says
otherwise Harry. It shows 17 countries from around the world losing
members of their armed forces in their fight against terrorists, and with
that fight spreading out over several countries.

If that is not a "World War", then what is? Eh? ;-)



A world war is a military conflict affecting the majority of the world's
major nations. World wars usually span multiple continents, and are very
bloody and destructive.


That definition fits the current World War against terrorists to a tee!
