And so we see that Vietnam is communist=You failed. It was 2-3 years till the north took over the south after the war.
Yeah you had a lot but you lost a LOT even B-52's.
We didn't fuck up Georgia.
We beat the living hell out of their armyXD
LMAo. Communism? To ...( 2 weeks ago by F22Ownage)
LMAo. Communism? To further correct your ignorance, The North is a communist regime, the Sounth is a democracy. There was never any attempt to overthrough the North. The whole engagement was to protect the South Vietnam from the North's invasion. Wich is what happened. Read some books on it, its quit interesting. :)

Shouldda couldda wouldd... Whatever. The UN didn't authorize the removal of Saddam from power, in wich is why we never did so. But I do agrre he should have been removed from power back then.
"Just wait, if nothing is done pakistan will spin out of control and it has nukes."
It good for pakistan to have nukes, it;s keeping them safe and the area uinder control. If they werent freindly to the US, then there is a great danger of communism and rogue regime taking over.

Pakinstan in spinning out of control. Bombs are blowing up in the capital, the tribes are siding with the terrorists and the government is powerless. If that's what you call friendy and stable then O.K.
What you a faling ...( 2 weeks ago by F22Ownage)
What you a faling to realize is that is exactly what insurgents want you to do. THey attack keypoints of a country to destabilize it, and start an uprising. Same technique we used on saddam after gw1. Same thin Hamas is doing in Jordan, Same thing Syria/Iran is trying to do in Iraq.

Occupants are always hated. Ask any Iraqi person who has innocent family detained without charges. They don't like the U.S.
You should have blitzkriegd them, installed a puppet and flooded them with aid and money to keep the people happy-thus not supporting the terrorists.
Pointless war, but moreover, bad handling.

i'm pretty sure we are all man enough to say we did not win in vietnam. if you ask any historian or anyone with a braincell in their head they would tell you how much of a complete failure the vietnam war was.

I would say this. We won Vietnam militarily (wich noone ever denied). But we did lost it politically. Fair enough?

Military victory ...( 1 week ago by preaacstal)
Military victory goes hand in hand with social victory. Almost every historian will say the US failed to put emphasis on hearts and minds, along with having a clear objective, nor did it prepare itself enough for the ensuing guerrilla war, Westmoreland (the US commander in Vietnam) was determined to fight a conventional war that never happened. the war was so abstract that there is no way of saying whether the US won militarily, that's just speculation. that means theres no way of saying NVA won

No. You won ...( 3 days ago by Prometheus4096)
No. You won politically. You showed everyone their country would be destroyed and set back decades if they dared to let in communism.
But you guys lost militarily. So then you did the same to Russia, luring them into Afghanistan to clear out the terrorists that were attacking over the borders into USSR from Afghanistan.
How did we lose ...( 2 days ago by F22Ownage)
How did we lose militarily? THe Sounth asked to push back the North when they invaded (wich we did). We prevented any othe invasion. More causlaties were loss by the Nother. More equipment was destroyed in the North.
And when Then in a final push we bombed Hanoi, forcing the North to the negiotiating table. Military loss? Harldy not.

Eventhough Europe and Japan were utterly destroyed in WWII many European countries and Japan rank higher than the US in the human development index.
Cuba, a third world country that has been in economic war with it's neighbour, that's also a world superpower, has a lower infancy death rate than the US. And all this while Cuba also suffers from a terrible communist economic system and a dictatorship.
US sucks.

Any way, US even at its present stage still has the 3rd strongest economy in the world. US IS the richet most proserous country in
the world. LMAO!
BTW hows you Unemployment rate doing. HEHEHEE!

New term? You don't even know about it? Haha.
You know the US basically founded the UN? You do know what that refers to?
US has the richest elite, sure. But as a country it does very poor.
US has unemployment rate of 6.50. That's not very good. And not to mention General Motors is almost bankrupth atm.
Unemployment here is lower. But I don't see why you want to talk about that. It's just one variable. Some countries have almost no unempl. but you don't want to live there, trust me.

In the Netherlands the population that lives below poverty line is 10.4%. Compared to the US 8.2 (Both from July 2008.)
So basically, while you might have a lower unemployment rate, The average worker is paid poorly and is living in poverty.

US is in recession. People lose their houses. Minimum wage here is a lot higher.
Your stats are wrong. I find 12 for us vs 10.90 for Netherlands. And then you need to understand what it actually means. They are standards set by their own government and vastly different in some cases. US has a set 'basket of goods' that never changes. Here we have a 'minimal consumptionlevel'.
Damn, am I discussing all this with some military nut. His name is F22Ownage, wow. hahaha. This is sad.
Ohh boy minimum ...( 17 hours ago by F22Ownage)
Ohh boy minimum wage is a little higher. THats great when low paying jobs are the norm. Glad you are happy living with the minimal, while I can sit back a pretty much buy what I want when I want. I don't have to worry about what meal I will be eating tommorrow night. :)
US is in a depression, not a recession. The criteria hasnt been met for a recession. Still our economy effects the rest of the world. :)
40%? Your numbers ...( 7 hours ago by F22Ownage)
40%? Your numbers are interesting (not correct but interesting). US being the 3rd strongest economy in the world. Even in the current US state, the dollar is the strongest it has been in the last 5 years. Even exceding the EU. US Economy history, this happens about every 15-20 years, for a few months then rebounds and becomes even stronger. Stocks today closed +115 points. As most are predicting this will be over by quarter 1 of 2009.
Mean while the netherlands will be making minimum wages.
Yeah you had a lot but you lost a LOT even B-52's.
