Iraq war analogies gone wild

Links from today's Real Clear Politics:

Iraq is No Vietnam - Jeff Jacoby, Boston Globe
Iraq is America's Boer War - Timothy Garton Ash, The Guardian
Civil War Parallels in U.S. and Iraq - Ken Shulman, Christian Science Monitor
They left out the most obvious analogy--the Israeli, Hezballah conflict in Lebanon. However, they are all meaningless because the Iraq war is like the Iraq war.

Update: Actually the Civil War analogy is more like the Klu Klux Klan analogy made hers often.
