  1. The USA did not lose in Viet Nam, they pulled out because of the citizen's political reaction to the incredible stupidity of those who started and engaged in that action. Three decades after it ended those who instigated and promoted it confessed, "We just didn't know what we were doing." Due to the dumbing down of the public, the tusami of lies from fox news and similar right-wing nut sources, the end of real front line reporting by US new services, and the end of the draft, the public is largely blind to what is going on in their name and via their taxes in present military operations. The USA presently has a military that serves at the bequest and direction of civilian politicians, but the civilian politicians are put in place by corrupting financial interests. It's called a "republic" which is how plutocrats present a mock democracy to a distracted, disinterested, and degenerated public.
