Do you live in Iran? Do you know about peotests in Iran because of poverty and unemployment? OR are you one of the privileged beneficiaries of Iranian Mullah regime?
Iran could be so much more than what it is today due to impact of American economic sanctions. Understand the difference.
Secondly, conflicts are messy affairs in which people die. Nevertheless, US-led forces have accomplished many military and/or political objectives since 2001 including following:
1. Regime change in Afghanistan
2. Regime change in Iraq
3. Regime change in Libya
4. Eradicating Al-Qaeda Network across Afghanistan and Pakistan; Pakistan also contributed
5. Eradicating ISIS Network across Syria and Iraq; Iran also contributed
Aforementioned military accomplishments do not suggest that people in these environments suddenly love USA but that hostile entities are being slowly culled in distant lands which could orchestrate attacks in US mainland.
The manner in which you perceive WAR is juvenile. You start a WAR, expect things to burn for a long time.

I have extensive family in Iran, they are living their life. Yes things have gotten more expensive and more pressure, but nothing that is unbearable given what Iran is undergoing in the history of modern mankind.
When a ordinary girl can upgrade to the latest IPhone, then I know things are not THAT bad.
Unfortunately the ones that suffer the most are the sick that need access to special medication that is hard to get under sanctions. But that is the legacy the empire creates, it punishes the average citizen for its governments actions.
It’s funny that many in the world call Assad a terrorist for its sieges that were used to capture cities. But US has done the same to Iraq, Libya, Venezuela, North Korea and Iran.
I wouldn’t be proud of the fact that the US has the blood of many innocent people on its hands. Hence why they are in a massive cycle of perpetual blowback.
