“Honestly, this is payback for Korea, Vietnam…”

____________

Two other wholly needless and pointless wars the USA should never have been in and lost. 5 to 6 million people killed, but hey let’s pay Russia back today. Thick.

““Honestly, this is payback for Korea, Vietnam…””

And the communist USSR has been gone for 30 years, and Putin repeatedly warned us not to follow that path. But lets get revenge now.

Retarded.

Your statement indicates you know very little history. But, I am sure American history is not taught very well in Russia. I forgive you.

“...payback for Korea, Vietnam...wars the USA should never have been in and lost.”

The war we lost in Korea as we stare in amazement at the economic miracle that is South Korea. Oh, I guess we did loose the N Korea part, and what an admirable success that poor country is. Now S. Korea sends military supplies to Ukraine, while N. Korea mostly sends masses of slave(?) labor to Russia. Of course it is possible these laborers sent to Russia actually consider being in Russia is an improvement over their lives in the total police state that is N. Korea.

Interestingly, while one could say China won the part of the war that ended with a N. Korea, and we lost Vietnam, look at the current situation. We now have decent relations with Vietnam and may end up helping their sphere of influence claims in the South Chinese Sea against China. Meanwhile Vietnam, which has had considerable success with Covid, is now sucking away international business from China which, if it did engineer Covid, has certainly shot itself in the foot.

By the way, does anyone have information about the actual situation of the claimed 100,000 N. Korean laborers loaned to Russia?

It’s all so easy to say that resisting the Communists who were openly trying to overthrow EVERY other government on the planet was “pointless”, in retrospect, after they were defeated (at least one version of them). But unless you can invent a time machine, go back and let the commies do as they please in order to demonstrate that the world would have been a better place had we made that choice, it’s just a silly assertion without meaning.
