Oh, you surely will not object to the fact that the US military refrained from attacking certain key targets such as air defense networks and C3 networks, because they knew that Russian "advisors" were in place, where the killing of which might have lead to an escalation of the conflict beyond South-East Asia? And you surely will not object, that, because of that reality, Washington put strong limits on what the military could do and not do, thus crippling any sound military campaign against what would otherwise be a "military" that mostly lived on tactics build in the early AD centuries, or living from shooting form the trees and pitholes.
And you surely cannot object to the fact, that because of the prolongment of the conflict, which was brought about by exactly those POLITICAL limits in the face of potential nuclear escalation against the supportive nation which was the Soviet Untion, and whithin which those unhealthy limits were put on the US military which resulted in a lot of deaths of US soldiers, was the REASON of why the people of the US could no longer accept the war and pushed their politicians to get out of it.
Back then, they pulled out because they could not run an effective campaign without risking nuclear war. They ran a political - not a military - campaign, and that is what caused the high number of losses for them. And that again was why their people demanded them to pull out (well, in fact they made a peace treaty, but as soon as they were out, the North Vietnamese burned that piece of paper and went into South Vietnam). And that is why they lost.
Now, these days, we do not face the nuclear threat right now, which would stop us from fighting in an effective and earnest way against those stone-age minded ****ers. These days, all that stops us is pussies like those who are posting here every ****ing day, who deem themselves as superior intellectual beings by putting forward a bunch of "I'm so smart, if the world was me, there would only be peace" dumb****, who sabotage their own civilization in the fight against radical, uneducated and hatefull barbarians. Oh, and the radicals being radicals is not our fault, btw. Them being hatefull, racist, uneducated barbarians is their own choice. It's what their leaders build their power on. They have to change their leaders, and they have to change their idea of politics and of the individual. But it is NEVER OUR fault when they drive ****ing airplanes into OUR HOMES. THEY ALONE have to take the responsiblity of their stupid barbarism. And indeed they DO. They are ****ing PROUD of it. That is NOT our fault or problem. It is THEIRS.
All WE have to deal with is securing our safety by destroying their hostile leaders and systems if they cannot stop it themselves.
Many people nowadays in the West have high respect for those underdeveloped countries, run by dictators through fear and hatred. Well, that might seem great, in a way, because it shows how far we have come in terms of tollerance, intellectual freedom and analysis. But I think we make a mistake when in the process of granting respect to THEM, we give up all respect for OURSELVES, and what the grandfathers of at least SOME of us FOUGHT FOR.
If we start deeming ourselves as so SMART from the comfortable fireplace in our living room - which is not the battlefield we send our soldiers on to fight on, btw - and deem radical and barbaric murderers as "victims" of ourselves, then we are comitting what is nothing other than collective suicide and we in fact no longer DESERVE to exist against those ****ING BARBARIANS who got stuck in some pre-medival mindset.
Let them have us, if YOU are more busy with defending and rationalizing their SICK WAYS, instead of RALLYING for us and OUR SOLDIERS.
**** your defeatism. **** it.
Be aware that your enemy KNOWS NO DEFEATISM. And he really doesn't need a foreign propaganda ministry, or foreign agitators, because he knows that there are enough people in our own lines which take care of that.
