The war was lost because its fundamental objective - the establishment of an independent non-Communist South Vietnam that could survive without our constant assistance - could not be achieved.

Ok Steven, I'll bite.. Are you saying that N. Vietnam could have sustained their aggression without Chinese and Russian support?

Are you saying that the Communist government that existed then and since in Vietnam is pure, fair, and entirely legitimate in it's governance of its people?

Are you saying that NOTHING could have occurred which would have stopped the inexorable tide of N. Vietnamese superiority??
