Winning a war and installing a lasting regime are two very different things. The US crushed the war part and fumbled the regime building.

So they won the battle but lost the war?

They won the war but failed at installing a lasting regime that aligns with their interests. A decades-long occupation is not generally counted as part of a war.

It really is. War means you crush your enemies. We absolutely did not.
