The United States (US) has been conducting operations in Afghanistan and Iraq since October 7, 2001 and March 19, 2003, respectfully. Since these operations began, the US and their allies have seen 4,747 casualties in Iraq and 2,232 casualties in Afghanistan, and their publics are tiring of their countries involvement in these conflicts. Despite former President Bush declaring the war over in Iraq on May 1, 2003, the US has been fighting a formidable insurgency there ever since, and they have been struggling with the insurgency in Afghanistan since they toppled the formal Taliban rule in October 2001. A factor common to both of these countries was that Foreign Policy categorized them as failing states prior to coalition involvement
