Marxist/Leninist left wing historical REVISIONISM. You must be feeling very nostalgic tonight. People used to LISTEN to that crap. Remember? Never again...

The Vietnam war was lost because it was not in the country's interest. Uh, no. It was lost on the streets of Berkeley. And other leftwing wasp nests. A few people thought there might be oil in the mekong delta so they set the stage for a war and blamed it on communist dominoes. What comic book did you read that in?

re:"The Vietnam war was lost because it was not in the country's interest. A few people thought there might be oil in the mekong delta so they set the stage for a war and blamed it on communist dominoes." So you're saying: JFK wanted to secure oil rights for his rich friends and classmates (prep school chums, and friends from Harvard and Yale) - wanted it bad enough to publicly confirm his belief on the domino theory and sanction the killing of South Vietnam's President. I do not agree with you. Even for someone rich like JFK, there are things more important than oil or the next dollar.

>>The Vietnam war was lost because it was not in the country's interest. A few people thought there might be oil in the mekong delta so they set the stage for a war and blamed it on communist dominoes. That kind of war never works out in the long run. Another datapoint when pondering the oil in Iraq.<< That is about as ridiculous a piece of nonsense as I have read from you yet. I'd conclude you were brainwashed, but that would be giving you credit for possessing an organ you are obviously lacking.
