No. The evidence is clearly insufficient. You didn't bring up Korea, Vietnam, the second Iraq war, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Laos, Cambodia, etc or that Kuwait was a United Nations and not a US campaign.
Instead you claimed some dubious members of the babbling class misjudged how long it would take, didn't take the context into consideration, misrepresented 1940s tanks as cutting edge weaponry, and then attributed military technology and prowess to a victory plagued by warcrimes like the highway of death.
Killing surrendered troops and firebombing a retreating military under the flag of the United Nations will lead to the belligerent considering it a defeat. Under those conditions, you could probably achieve that with 19th century maxim guns.
Sorry, that's nowhere near sufficient to show that the fancy weaponry on display justified the cost or was an important part of the victory.
In every single one of those wars, the weapons were never the problem. Look up the massive casualty ratios in those wars. Every one of those wars were failed by the politics and the fact that we should never should have been there. The weapons and the MIC never caused the failure of those wars. All the war crimes and evil acts committed were done by people in the military, not the MIC.
And what 1940s tanks? Both sides had modern tanks in the war.
