Vietnam War - Won & Lost

This is an excellent outline of how America won and lost the Vietnam War.

No doubt many of you youngsters and hippies from the 60s have chosen to accept the lies presented by the left.

Educate yourself here...it is a sad story of betrayal.

We lost the war because they beat us.

Proof you know nothing about the war. But, you are not alone. The left has done a good job of misinforming many.

We won the 1st war and had nothing to do with the 2nd. For some reason history overlooks the fact that Vietnam was a 2 parter.

You do realize we signed a peace treaty with NV, right? That's why we left, the war was over. Then SV kept on being the brutal dictatorship that it had been and NV noticed we weren't there so said screw it and declared on SV and steamrolled them. We opted out of helping SV and yet history records the US as losing a war it didn't fight. Idiots like you keep that myth going.

The ironic thing is that NV/Vietnam has proven to be a better ally.

i mean it's like everything that is wrong or ever has been wrong is because of the liberal left. We once thought the world was flat. Damn liberals! Slavery liberals. I bet the black plague was because of liberals too.

I bet it was liberal government policies which lead to the fleas on the rats that caused the outbreak in the first place.
And if not for the entrenched liberal elite which was resistant to believing that the earth was round, who knows what would have happened? If only Jesus was still walking the earth to teach us all the evils of liberalism.

The 11th commandment was to vote republican. I bet the liberal elite wants to keep that one hidden. The vast liberal establishment has covered up this fact for thousands of years.

The biggest reason we lost Vietnam was it was the first time Americans saw the carnage of war as it was broadcasted on the nightly news every evening. National morale plummeted.

Why don't you think Bush wanted the caskets of dead soldiers from Iraq being broadcasted all over the place? It had nothing to do with respect, it was all about maintaining morale.

American propaganda during WWII tremendously helped keeping morale at home very high, despite of the tremendous casualties we were suffering abroad.

No we have even better propaganda but for some reason the media get's a hard on trashing the US. Hell some of them are even rooting for the enemy in the case of Libya.

Vietnam was lost for many reasons, the media attention being the biggest, IMO. Obviously, we should never have gotten involved.

Just like Libya. Syria is deteriorating into an even worse situation. Why hasn't Obama gone after them like Libya?

Geez...you guys really are a mess.

We won the war! The stinking commies agreed to peace after Nixon bombed the crap out of them. The treaty was signed. The war ended and we WON!

We agreed to protect the South from commie aggression and provide the South with as much military material as needed.

But, then a funny thing happened. Anybody know?
