Holocaust?

Wow you people seem to forget what words truly mean.

Holocaust?

destruction or slaughter on a mass scale, esp. caused by fire or nuclear war repeat destruction or slaughter on a mass scale Did you know that the USA caused destruction on a mass scale in vietnam? Did you know that the USA slaughtered a whole lot of people in vietnam? Apparently you sir, are an idiot.

Afghanistan - Vietnam

Afghanistan is Afghanistan. While there may be similarities, every was is its own war and does not require another war to look like. Every war requires it's own decisions, tactics, and costs. " __________ is ___________'s Vietnam" is over-used, over-simplified, and offensive to those who fight for us. Agree with the war, disagree with the war, it is its own war, not Vietnam.

BP Oil Spill - Katrina

Why do I have a feeling you're one of those people who spouts "BP is Obama's Katrina"? That would be ironic!

This bullet is not a bullet

Though this bullet may have similarities to other bullets they have very different wear scratches and dents. WHINE WHINE WHINE.

Afganistan

Question: How do you spell Afganistan? Answer: V-i-e-t-n-a-m

No, its spelled A-F-G-H-A-N-I-S-T-A-N

The forces at work in Vietnam were nationalist in nature. We were fighting a nationalist movement. That is to say, Vietnam wasn't fighting for communism, but instead were fighting so they could be Vietnam for the Vietnamese, to really understand Vietnam you need to understand the history of French Colonialism. Afghanistan is completely different, we're dealing with Valleyism, which is to say we're trying to take control of a region which has hundreds of small local provincial government, all of which are acting independently. So naturally trying to fight a war in Afghanistan like we'd fight a war in say...Vietnam won't work. Because we're fighting a hundred Wars at once. Frankly, Afghanistan more closely resembles Italy than Vietnam.

NO more war! Bring the

NO more war! Bring the troops home NOW!

No more War? Humans would

No more War? Humans would need to cease to exist for such a thing to occur. Nice pipe-dream though... Hey they had pipes in Vietnam! Coincidence? I think not.
