To quote another member, I normally go out of my way to coach my comments to even those I violently disagree with in a non-confrontational way, and with a degree of respect I believe human beings deserve. So please take this in the spirit it is intended...
Go to hell.

I was going to be nice aftert some of your former comments, but, it is obvious you are yet another piece of juvenile eurotrash that needs to be ignored.
Enjoy the karma your posting brings around...

The AH O'Club now sucks.
It isn't a AH flightsim bbs forum alternative/choice for sharing anything other than gameplay issues, it's just a bunch of trolls, and a political mess.

This coming Tuesday in history.........
May 4, 1982
Argentine air attacks from Super Etendard fighter planes using Exocet air to surface missiles sink the British destroyer HMS Sheffield with twenty men on board. One British Harrier plane is shot down.

yeah I'll go tell that to my Vietnamese friend who lost his family after we left.

We were there because the French screwed it up to begin with and then ran.
Further, it was evidently politcally expedient not to fight to win, or to win. Kennedy and Johnson chose to get us into the mess. The powers that were did not have the convictions to do what was necessary to win. Targets were chosen on the basis of political safety, not on the basis of strategical importance. The war was run on a political basis rather than a military basis. Such actions are thus doomed to failure.
Had the military been released to target the infrastructure and support elements of the NVA, and to take and hold ground, the outcome would likely have been very different. When one side practices limited warfare, while the other side practices total warfare, the side that practices limited warfare will not win, regardless of other advantages.
There was no unconditional surrender by either side in Vietnam. The U.S. was not actually defeated in battle. It was in fact military action by the U.S. that practically forced North Vietnam to the table, and into the agreement the U.S. offered. Not the other way around.
On a final note, on the did not win side of the ledger, the U.S. has Vietnam, and it appears it has recovered nicely. So, how many does YOUR country have on the did not win, or more to the point LOST side of the ledger?

The funny thing is that Skuzzy could make it all go away by giving the boot to about 5 people.

Yeah, why don't you go tell him why you left?
And the second. Come on in - all of ya! :aok

The French left Vietnam. Get it? They screwed it up and left. You said it. Figure it out.
As far as the win:loss thing goes, I guess when you don't stand up and fight for anything, you don't lose any fights. Go figure.

Whatever you say. War is war, you often must bomb the country you are at war with, since it is the country that supplies the war machine. But whatever you do, don't let logic cloud your vision.

We have John Kerry (among others) to thank for that.

Kerry should celebrate with a big rally with Jane Fonda and Rene Gonzalez.

If only more people had been sent to die it would have turned out OK, right?
-
If only the people doing the dying didn't have their hands tied behind their back by politicians whoring for votes from ultra melons like Kerry.

Schadenfreude and GSholtz,
Ya know, I can't help but get the funny feeling you're trying to upset people intentionally. Did somebody here hurt you? ;)
GS, I am especially surprised at you. You always seemed to me to be the kind of guy that does his homework and presents arguments in a rational way.
Everyone (myself included) seems to be foaming at the mouth around here lately.
Can anyone post a link to an alternate bbs forum without all the biting? Is there such a thing?
