Unbelievable

The suits who invented the domino theory knew by the late 1960s that it was nonsense, and that's what the entire war was based on. All presidents are the target of various so-called scholars and shmexperts. Many of us figured out early on that the North Vietnamese were not going to burn their way through the south and invade Australia next. Do you remember this nonsense? Doug, you are chanting a typical shallow and simplistic post mortem of a very complex set of circumstances, alliances, and political commitments that took place over many years, mired also in corruption. In the end it came down to justifying the continuance of policies that weren't working or were no longer purposeful. If you simply believe it was all based on the "domino" theory, then it was you that was duped. RCE Like the other two personal wars, it was based on weak presidents who succumbed to bad advice, thus demonstrating their complete inability to manage and think for themselves. So, as it relates to Vietnam, your list of weak Presidents must include: Harry S Truman Dwight D. Eisenhower John F. Kenney Lyndon Johnson Richard M. Nixon Gerald Ford and, then, to make everything "ok" Jimmy Carter. RCE Grow up. Good grief. RCE |
