How was the US able to spend boatloads of money over years to Iraq and Afghanistan to normal inflation but Ukraine spending is blamed for the super high inflation? /u/Ordinary-Can-2361 No such thing as stupid questions

All my red pill friends always tell me about inflation is high because we’re sending money to Ukraine. But how did we have wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan for all that time to barely noticeable inflation.. is it a lie?? Is Ukraine just used as a scapegoat for something else??
