Name one major battle the US lost in VN.

That's easy - the Tet Offensive. Cost Johnson the presidency and was
the turning point of the war (even as the war dragged on another
couple of years). It virtually assured that the US could not win the
war. And the US military was completely outmaneuvered. It was
completely blindsided.

Because, you are playing games. You do know, so admit it.

You seem to forget those same people kicked France's ass at Dien
Bien Phu.

They sure did.

Don't be sorry you have killed 2,000,000 people. It's a performance.

They didn't kill enough of them. They should have used nukes, and been done
with it. The Russians wouldn't have done anything. M.A.D. or the fear
thereof would have prevented them.

I'm happy to be insane because I think that you are insane to be a
proud assassin.

What is it with you leftist French ****wits? Perhaps you would like a taste
of your own imperialistic medicine, eh Frenchman? Oh! Don't look too far
back in your pathetic history. It might reveal some truths about your
ancestors that aren't very pleasant.

Ah yes, I can see it now. The US marches on Paris and sends them a message
they'll never forget. Too bad that'll never happen, or then again, maybe it
will.

I applaud the day. The European union is a shambles. Time for the N.W.O. to
take its place. Stand with it, or be buried in the rubble, Frenchman.

Wrong. We won every major battle.

Cost Johnson the presidency and was

That was a media creation, I was there at the time and for the 2nd offensive
in June of the same year. We won every major battle.

And you of course, BELIEVED our press?

If we won every battle, explain how we got our asses forceably
kicked out of there. Or was the footage of us fleeing in helecopters
fomr the U.S. embassy while the city was being overrun by V.C.
all invented?

We did not get kicked out. We signed a treaty and left. As troops left
there were less of them to defend the Embassy.
