Can we say Vietnam? And the similarities are...? Not the climate, not the terrain, not a civil war, not a lineless conflict, not a containment policy.
We never took out the opposing government in Viet Nam as we did here.
So how is this like Viet Nam?
I do not think this is like Vietnam but I do wish that Colin Powell was more involved in formulating policy there... There does seem to be the lack of an acceptable exit strategy...
Unless we are about to expand the United States and Welcome the 51st state into the Union....
