WTF? We didn't suffer a military defeat in Vietnam?
I was always taught in school that our military lost in Vietnam, but now I have discovered that we were totally WINNING the shooting war but our politicians got scared by a bunch of hippies back home. Why do they lie to kids about it?

It is a larger deposit than the middle East combined.

The French fought the North Vietmanise for 10 years and got their arse kicked.America then tried and even with their mighty military machine got their arses kicked.
America was shipping back drugs into America in body bags and some have said they were even sending drugs back in body cavities of their dead solders.Does Afganistan sound like this war and I suppose America will say they won Afganistan in the end.
America has not won a war they started,came in when it was all over in ww1,ww2 and claim they one those.

Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running.

Used by the Founders...
Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives”
reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in
the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by
the children of the citizens
, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all
their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel

Oh' What the Hell, do I look like I want to die in some nursing home one day...
America must have 4 new Constitutional Amendments...
1. Drug Tests and Mental Evaluations on all politicians and judges randomly five times per year.
2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges.
3. Mental and health standards for Supreme Court Justices and retirement age set.
4. A 'Star Chamber' of elected Natural Born Citizens (no attorney's) to ivestigate, try, and prosecute the politicians and government employee's as they see fit.

Mandatory death penalty by public hanging is the merciful sentence for pedos and their associates.

Democrats are a WMD, literally.

South Vietnamise army got squished because their president did the Hitler and thought he could do a general's job and direct battles himself. He also did a wonderful job turning the general population against the regime. A first class moron and a petty tyrant us Americans bled for.

We won a decisive military victory and then we quit.

Yes it was the Rules of Engagement that crippled US Forces from wiping out the NVA. If search and destroy was allowed
to act in Laos, Thailand, N/S.Vietnam...with full American Force, there would have been a Military and Political Victory.
The NVA Strongholds in those countries would have been B52'd to death and supplies and bases would no longer exist to help.

Your point is moot, since Tonkin is a proven bull shit false flag undertaken by traitors who your country should have strung up.

We are talking about the MILITARY FORCE defeating the NVA...
A False Flag Tonkin Bay incident is not the point dumbass.
The US had more firepower and did defeat the NVA but due to
the political strategies of the US Government, it was not allowed to implement a full scale woop ass on the NVA.

Re: WTF? We didn't suffer a military defeat in Vietnam?
There was no end game. It's just like the U.S. in Afghanistan now. It's not about achieving geopolitical objectives. It's about holding an internal enemy at bay. But for how long? We thought the North would give up. They didn't. They were relentless, as the Taliban are in Afghanistan. Wave after wave after wave. We have/had no business either place.

The funny thing is... Both Vietnam and Afghanistan have/had a common denominator -- OPIUM.

Coincidence? I think you all know the answer.

^Exactly. An incredible fact that not many realize. No enemy soldier ever set foot on German soil in WWI, yet Germany surrendered unconditionally.

From this fact -- if you continue to dig/research -- you will discover Hitler's justifiable suspicion of Jewish subterfuge against Germany in order to acquire Palestine.

It was those damned hippies that lost the vn war.

I did not realize that. I thought it was because China was sending an unending supply of bodies to kill and we couldn't keep up.

Yes, I still remember the helicopters taking off from the US Embassy with People trying to hang on to escape.


"Peace with Honor" Kissinger style.

It wasn't called a loss, OP, but it sure as fuck wasn't a win. It was Let's get the fuck out of here.

I didn't count. Did anymore "dominoes" fall after VN? Was there a bloodbath? A few?

What politicians learned from VN is to never show dead American boys, and never show the plane loads of US flag covered coffins. and don't give a nightly body count. And don't draft soldiers because college students will protest.
I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.

VNA and VietCong destroyed themselves in the Tet Offensive. They were decimated and would have been a pushover if the politicians would have agreed to the military's request for 200 000 troops for a reserve.

The politicians surrendered to hippies and we had to bail out on our ally. That was pure cowardice.
