Well, with Vietnam, America lost the war but won the battle against communism. It was a fair win too. Took decades and decades before the "the Wall" got crushed.

No one can criticize the USA for that either. Unless you are a commie of course? -g-

LOL. Foreign imperialists. Yes, we really wanted to colonize South Vietnam, no matter what the cost. And now, Afghanistan. Yep, real feathers in our caps. Too funny.
