You're not crazy, MDLM!!!

I think nothing would make the Vietnamese happier than having US forces full-time in their territory. They'd be salivating at the potential revenue this could generate.

How ironic: A country that fought to kick the Americans out of their territory, now eagerly welcomes them. The fight was lost with guns, but won with dollars.

And about Libya, sounds attractive a second front in the Middle East (although it's actually Northern Africa). I like that.

Yes, I see both moves as a real possibility. Our 17th Air Force moves back to Libya (you can drink a beer there, 'ya know), and our Pacific Fleet "represents" in Vietnam (they like us more than Fillipinos).

The strategy makes sense to me. And I'm not that bright either (except to my loyal mutt)!
