You are wrong, that’s the myth. Vietnamization was working. The DEAL was we would continue to supply them with supplies and air power as needed. If we had kept our part of the deal Saigon would not have fallen. The NVA invaded with more armor then then was at the battle of Kursk. US air power would have completely destroyed it. When we turned our backs that’s when the ARVN was overwhelmed and list.

Kursk? Didn’t they say the Tank battles in the Israeli Yom Kippur War (1973) was at the Kursk levels?

Wow. Nations run a HUGE risk being an ally of the USA.

Wonder what BB in Israel is thinking now about Obama’s pledge that “all options are on the table” regarding Iran.

Never mind, BB knew back in 2009 that Obama was a weak-kneed, “yelluh”, spineless, neutered male. He knew it and began drawing up Plan B to hit Iran but...NOW THAT IRAN is extending a hand to “help” the US in Iraq (well planned out by the Iranians) the US will fall for it and lose everything, thus eliminating Israel's ability to strike.

Oh Obama, such a sucker, such a clown...

Yes. Read Nixon's and Ford's accounts of the events.

Liberal leftist Democrats in the House sent tens of thousands of South Vietnamese literally into the sea, as it was a better choice than facing the NVA savages.

And, btw, two or three million Cambodians were exterminated because of the self-righteous liberalism of Democratic Party House members.

As bad and imperfect are the results when the U.S. jumps into overseas war and sticks to the mission, they are rather better than the alternative of pulling out and abandoning our allies to our enemies.

Back then it was Soviet Russia which reaped the benefits. Today it is hegemonic Islam.
