Obama compares Iraq to Viet Nam

[NYcarbineer]

Iraq was won, then Obama switched sides

Iraqnam was so "won" that the Iraqnamese wanted us out....

Bush's big mistake was leaving the deal openended for his successor to make his own arrangements with the Iraqis. Nobody knew that Obama would side with Islamic Jihad, withdraw all US troops and hand Iraq, Syria and Libya over to his brothers in Jihad

Bush didn't leave the deal 'open ended'.

 

[IcebergSlim]

We had Iraq won...then Obungles fumbled it away, we could have won Vietnam but politics prevented it, the two common denominators? Democrat CINCs

Had it won?

So why would we have needed to stay 10 years after "Mission Accomplished"?

Why are we still in Germany, Japan, Korea....etc?

Because of special interests that want our tax money.

Nope, we left troops to prevent anyone taking advantage of the power vacuum

What " power vacuum"?

Sure he did! He left it so his successor could negotiate a fresh deal with Iraq. Obama took that as an opportunity to support ISIS, Islamis Jihad and the Muslim Brotherhood

He didn't know because of the power vacuum in his head.

Why are we in Japan today?

It's the lesson from Viet Nam.'

what the **** does he know about Viet Nam?? he was just a snot nosed kid at the time growing up in Indonesia where he had no concept of what growing up in America was like, he is just 7 months older than my oldest son, and my son knows more about the VN war than O'Husseinbama ever will, besides what he learned about the VN war he learned from leftard books!!

They're just tossing around terms they heard on the radio.

Historians would be laughing hysterically at your comment.

The comparison is apt.

Bush upended the ME, our defeat in Indochina did nothing of the sort in SE Asia.

Europe is fully capable of protecting itself.

Japan and South Korea still need the American shield.

I see that today, your boyfriend Obama, will be giving aid and comfort to ten more enemies of America by releasing them from GITMO. LINK

When will the America People realize we have an Islamic cell operating out of our nation's White House? Will they come to this conclusion when Islamic terrorist activities begin in our southern Border States or cities like New York City?

Can you figure out why the Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff publicly called for the closing of GITMO..........in 2008?

So that's why you RWnuts can't learn from history.

Obama makes a stupid compassion and the freaking left loons are tripping all over themselves trying to defend him. Hilarious

And we still kept troops there. Actually there were. They were called the USSR. Thats why we kept troops in those place. Because if you withdraw you create a power vacuum and someone comes to fill it. Something Commander Clueless Obungles doesn't get.
As for the comparisons, they are apt. Tet was a disasterous defeat for the North Vietnamese and virtually wiped out the Vietcong. Had we followed up the advantage the North would have sued for peace. But the left in this countr declared it was a defeat and we blew the opportunity.
In Iraq we had a stable democracy that had staged two free and fair elections. Had we done what Obozo's own commanders recommended and left troops there it would still be that way. But Nobama managed to lose the peace and now has sent ground troops back in.

What were our vital interests in invading Vietnam in the first place?

List them.

We were trying to stop the advance of communism. Now due to liberal leadership, communism is here in America and coming down out of Washington. Libs are right, no need to fight over there anymore. This fight is coming here.... and hopefully sooner than later

-Geaux

And why was stopping 'communism' in 10,000 miles around the world in a third world country vital to our interests?

List them.

Read more slowly

If you stop it over there, it doesn't get here. Since we failed to do that, communism is here. Obama case in point

-Geaux

We were in danger of being invaded by North Vietnam if they reunited with South Vietnam?

You're today's dumbest poster.

" Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.

This much we pledge—and more.

To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. United, there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided, there is little we can do—for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder."

As I said.....make work....

There were obvious issues with trying to re-integrate millions of US servicemen into the domestic labor force.....

For an illustration, see what happened after WW1......in your case, just remember what you saw....

Was the word salad of a post supposed to present some kind of argument or point? Because the point seems to be you dont have a ******* clue what you're babbling about.

Bonus Army - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wikipedia? LOL

What's not factual in the link?

The fact that you think an open source is automatically credible as long as it forwards an agenda is what is funny. Especially since you think the burden should shift to the skeptic using a credible source. You guys are a hoot.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Have some of you forgotten that we LOST in Vietnam?

lol, if winning in Vietnam was VITAL to our interests, and we LOST, why haven't we been destroyed, or severely harmed,

by the loss of those imaginary vital interests?

We lost in Vietnam and the consequences were of no importance whatsoever. We lost 58,000 people for 'vital interests' that didn't exist...

...no different than Iraq. 4500 people lost for 'vital interests' that didn't exist.

"Mission Accomplished"

you stupid ******* libertards still do not understand, "Mission Accomplished" was for the ship and what it's role was.

No.....the 2008 SOFA spelled out a specific timetable for the withdrawal of US troops from Iraqnam....

Trying to prevent millions from being imprisoned and slaughtered is a just cause.
And here we have it 40 years later Vietnam is a capitalist economic system. What a waste by the commies.

Your dismissal of wikipedia is just your way of admitting you can't or won't try to refute the material.

Your attempt at a smokescreen is purile and transparent. Go to the source that best makes your case if the sources are good and post the content, like a normal person instead of trying to bluff people with a sloppy effort on your part.
