Yup. The 1959 film "The Mouse that Roars" made of parody of losing to the US
When the tiny nation of Grand Fenwick's only export, a special wine, begins to be produced in California, their entire economy collapses. Things look dire until Prime Minister Rupert Mountjoy (Peter Sellers) points out that no country that has declared war on the United States has ever gone hungry. When Field Marshall Tully Bascombe (Peter Sellers) and the 23 other men in the Grand Fenwick army invade the United States, their plan to immediately surrender unravels.
Several hundred. Not likely any left.
The Vietnamese hate the Chinese more than the US. Their beef with China goes back several centuries. And almost immediately after Saigon fell, the Chinese invaded, thinking it would be a good time to do it. Vietnam handed them their asses on a platter.
Yes Xi much happy expanding war machine.
A quite eccentric former co-worker was a nut when it came to the Government. The Bushies were “the Company..” but he hated Trump. He also stole my I Like Ike button.
Help = sell ‘em sh!t. Who is kidding whom? At least we’re not sending them teenage cannon fodder.
An old USAF pilot (’68 to ‘73) sez so.
I’m fine having good relations with Vietnam. Especially since they hate the Chinese. The war is over and there’s no point in keeping old animosities alive. I can put it aside. Those who never served should be able to also.
Well, of course Bidet* is on board with helping commies.
Meet the new proxy...same as the old proxy.
Even Ho Chi Minh said, he’d rather smell French crap for five years, than Chinese crap for a thousand years.
this is just so g.d.m.f. wrong, it aint funny!
I just heard 58,318 AMERICANS SHOUT “F*** Joe Biden!”
I wonder if there will be a “Keiv airlift”.
“Go Tell The Spartans” - Burt Lancaster. Somebody has to work the Red, Green and Yellow lights in Vietnam.
BiXiden is on the take there too?
Baloney. We killed 1.5 million of them. They killed 50,000 of ours. The scumbag politicians lost the war. We won the battles. Get your facts straight, moron.
The Chinese, Soviets, were arming North Vietnam.
Perhaps They can help us make more arty rounds since we seem to be running out of them with the proxy war on Russia...
Ooh, that's gonna leave a mark!
