I agree with that. But we did win militarily in Viet Nam, and we are close to winning in Iraq.
We surrendered in Viet Nam, and the Leftists here would like us to surrender in Iraq.
Sure, if we don't surrender, some more American lives will be lost. But what they have fought for will be achieved, and their war will not have been fought in vain.
We do not have to slaughter thousands of Iraqis to win. Most Iraqis would just like to live in peace. It is ridiculous (I almost used more inflammatory language) to think otherwise.
We will never lose militarily. Our military is too good for that. We either win or surrender.
Tomas, read those words carefully.
Your prophesy of doom is wrong. Our soldiers WON in Viet Nam, and they are winning in Iraq.
The policy in Viet Nam was made by politicians, and now it is being made by the military with a Commander in Chief who possesses courage and commitment to military victory.
If you don't believe that now, you will eventually, because it is the truth.
As speekinout said, we do not NEED to slaughter innocent Iraqis as you would like our soldiers to do. This is a different era with different weapons, and this is a different war.
Every time you say it is the same as Viet Nam, you hurt the soldiers and their families, just as the left does when it makes the bogus comparison in their effort to regain power
The only difference is that it is their intent to hurt us. I assume your intent is not to do harm.......but I don't have a clue as to why youm on thread after thread, continue to demoralize our brave soldiers and their families with your dark words.
It is shameful, IMO, and you should stop.
