Temo: Re: The Larger Issue

(V): The only way to have one the Vietnam war would have to taken on the suppliers of arms to the North Vietnamese

I am not saying the US had a great plan to win in Vietnam, they learned nothing from the French failure at dien ben foo (or however it is spelled, dont have time to look it up right now) but the french messed up and underestimated the Vietnamese and the US didnt learn a thing and did the same mistakes all over again.

It was against the law for the US to bomb the supply route to the viet cong by way of the ho chi mihn trail because it went through Cambodia, and it was our government who ultimately got in the way of our successful help there.

Anyway, even if you are right and there was no way to win in the jungle, ultimately we have won, because Vietnam is more prosperous now than then, and they are our allies more now than ever, and they are happy we helped them, and they are better off for it!

Iraq will be no different....
