Remembered VN war, poeple cried out loud that the S VN don't need us here; they want to fight their own war; they hate our soldiers there... If all of these things are true, why after we pulled out S VN is conquered by the communist, thousands of S VN are killed or died in their escapes? Are we making the same mistake now?

Bush wanted a war, he got one. Actually, he has two. He's looking to ruin the US. He's doing a d amn good job of that. Iraq will be looked on as the second Vietnam. This might last longer than Vietnam. He needs to be tried and convicted of war crimes along with his puppy Tony B-liar.

Actually our military never lost the war in Viet Nam, we lost politically not militarily, democrats voted to defund the war there and as a consequence 3 MILLION people died. The democrats want to do the same thing now. This is the only similarities in the two wars. It would be a huge mistake to pull out now.

A little history - The NV and VC were already well entrenched in SVN well before we pulled out. It was inevitable that there would be a bloodbath. The question was and still is in Iraq today - do we want our soldiers killed in the process? Back then the answer was no, and based on the last election, that answer is the same today.

My Cambodian friend is no fan of Jane Fonda that is for sure. After the Americans left and Pol Pot came in most of her relatives, including her parents, were massacred and she managed to escaped with her sisters by crossing the Mekong river at night and hiding behind a log during the crossing into Thailand.

we need to secure a position of strength outside the political apparatus of Iraq...I am a Liberal that has voted for Reagan because of defense, but the efforts of Bush are not oriented to defense
