Adam had most of it right, but:
"If you try to argue in any way that isn't what happened in Vietnam and that isn't what is happening right now, you're a brainwashed idiot."
No, the south Vietnamese government was of Democracy and though we knew they would fall to the north which had China as it's backing, we didn't want to see it, made up reasons and attacked the North, which was like running into a Bee hive. I don't know if you've ever seen the picture of the North/South Vietnam back in the day, but honestly, when I look at it, I get shivers and fucking see ants. I see ants with terrible disgusting power to kill all in their way because their numbers are limitless. The best thing to do in Vietnam would have been to nuke the entire north half of Vietnam. No offense to my readers, seems cruel, but that was a lose-lose unless we had nuked ..
Lol...
That shit... was a moronic war... We claimed a tiny corner of land and tried to fight against an empire alliance. The only likeness between then and now is the Insurgeons.
