in 1967, I was in deployment to V.N. In June'67, there was the "Six Day War" Israel vs. whoever else Arab neighbors.
I was thinking maybe Israel instead of Viet Nam since we were in "process". Not weird, but the prevailing train of thought of that command was that a war in the middle- East
was unwinnable (also, people quietly forgot about the USS Liberty incident, the Israeli attack on the 8 June'67, during the Six-Day War that killed 34 of it's crew members)..
That gives credence to be aware of your allies, or whatever your allies think that is of most importance to them.

Afghanistan
no one is of mention

as far as today's issues, I strongly think the problem originated with Ronald Reagan. Screw the politics of today, but it was Reagan's cowboy diplomacy who so happily
funded the Mujahideen via the Saudis & Pakistanis. Why force the Soviets out of Afghanistan when they were failing a probable long war there?
Does anyone think in their right mind that Saudi Arabia and Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence are our friends?
Reagan was deluded.
