It depends on which one. Communism was an issue in the Soviet-Afghan War from 1979-1989. Communism is not an issue in the current US-Afghan War from 2001-Present.
Both the Korean War and the Cold War were at issue with Communist expansion. The only one not at issue with Communism is the Afghanistan conflict.
No it wasn't. Communism wasn't even an issue when WW1 broke out.
Yes, with the Soviet War, No with the US war.
Yes. The enemy was referred to as "Reds" or "Commies."
Any conflict past 1990 (the end of the cold war).
The War in Afghanistan from 2001-Present. (the issues were Islamic Fundamentalism and support of terrorism) The Cold War was entirely communism vs. free enterprise. The Korean War was fought by the UN against the extension of Chinese Communism. The Vietnam War was also a proxy war, with the North supported by the USSR.
1. Communism surfaced in Russia, as a minor issue, during the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905, Lenin becoming active at this time, Possibly thru Japanese financing, since Japan was doing everything they could to inflict damage on their enemy (Tsarist regime). 2, Communism was an issue during the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in 1917; they pulled out of WWI because of it. 3. Communism was an issue during Mao's take-over of China in 1949; after '49, China became Red China, and the non-communist Chinese fled to Taiwan (Formosa) becoming Nationialist China. 4. Communism was an issue in the Korean War. Preserving the Republic of South Korea...they exist today. 5. Communism was an issue in the Vietnam War. The Republic of South Vietnam could not be saved. 6. Communism was an issue with Castro's Lieutenant, Che Guevara; his mission was to create more Vietnam's in Central/South America; US Covert operations stopped him.
Communism was a central issue in the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. These conflicts were fueled by the ideological struggle between communism and capitalism.
Islamic is a religious topic. Communism was politics.
If you're talking about the Soviet War (Russian War) in Afghanistan in the 1970s/80s, yes. The US even SUPPLIED Afghan Rebels with anti-aircraft shoulder fired missiles to shoot down Russian aircraft with. If you're talking about the US "Operation Enduring Freedom" in Afghanistan which commenced in October 2001 (because of 9/11) then no. The current military campaign in Afghanistan is to eliminate terrorism...communism no longer became an issue AFTER 1990. Communism still exists, but it's strictly a paper tiger now. No teeth, no meaning.
The U.S government decided to get involved in the Vietnam war because the believed after the cold war that communism was a very serious issue that must be adressed first hand. America has also singed itself into SEATO (an agreement between many other countries who were also against communism). This meant America had no other options but enter the war in Vietnam.
