Post WW2, the US saw the rise of the Tiki bar trend as US soldiers and sailors, returning from far-off voyages returned with souvenirs and tales of distant, "exotic" lands.
By contras, despite me reading about some correlated increase in the interests towards the Gilgamesh legend, neither the 1991 Gulf War nor the 2003 invasion of Iraq has led to any deep cultural permeation or absorption of Iraqi culture into the US mainstream.
How could one get something like the "Tiki bar trend" in USA associated with the Iraq War?
