Exactly. At least with him the pandering stopped. We see a clearer picture.
Our media was fawning over da Silva and Dilma, they could do no wrong so it was impossible for people to realize there was such a problem.

Yeah. We hardly knew the terrain over there. Plus, the guerillas used that to their advantage.

Vietnam was a hopeless war.

The only way it could have been won would have been if the US would have supported the French in the early 1950s and staged a pincer operation against bolshevism in east asia by attacking from Vietnam and Korea against the fledging Red Chinese with assistance of the KMT remnants in Taiwan and Burma.

However, we have evolved from that. Remaining stagnant on ideals from hundreds of years ago, when society, technology, and progress was way different, is not good. In order to achieve progress, we must leave behind ideals from the past, and look for new ideologies that fit our society as it stands in the modern day.

I have mixed opinions on them, they're a trusted ally who helps protect us from Iranian backed terrorism and the way they uphold religious values is an inspiration.

I do wish they would modernise and welcome in American companies to invest more.

1. The west had a pre-christian past, so our existence is not dependent on Christianity.
2. The U.S. was founded on a secular government, not on Christianity. Our Constitution pretty much says this.

Ah so dropping JDAMs on Yemeni schoolchildren is perfectly acceptable. Also acceptable is the fact that women have little to no control over their lives from birth because of their male guardianship system. Gotcha.

And Iranian-backed terrorism will never strike the United States. Actually all I've seen is American terrorism against Iran. Did you know America shot down an Iranian passenger jet and killed 290 people? Yeah.

The trick party with Vietnam was that we were fighting a guerrilla war AND a real war against a state actor. The problem is we sat on the defensive, gave the North Vietnamese the imitative.

We should have invade North Vietnam up to the Mu Gia Pass (the key to the whole Ho Chi Minh trail). We should have focused on fighting the North Vietnamese and left the ARVN to fight the Viet Cong, with us providing special operations, air and artillery support, but not our infantry.

Most of their religious laws would violate the first amendment if they were implemented here. Others would violate the fourteenth amendment.
