Less than 20 years before John Kennedy said “Ich bin ein Berliner” we were doing our absolute best to burn the entire country of Germany to the ground.
You really don’t want to compare the situation in Germany with Vietnam. Do You?
We decimated Germany them to the point that only cockroaches still hade a semblance of normality in the country.
Vietnam we proverbially did an Obama number and bowed down to them as we left the country backstabbing the neighboring countries who sided with us.
HUGE difference Duncan.
Kennedy was relating to the democratic state we set up in West Germany (after the perpetrators of the atrocities of twenty years before had mostly been executed); he didn’t say that in front of a swastika flag.
