    Vietnam then seems much like Iraq now - yeah, awful things were going on there, but the U.S. invasions didn't fix them...and, rather, had the Americans also doing awful things. If we could invade and fix everything up, well then okay, I guess - we sort of did that, after a fashion, in Germany and Japan in WW2. Maybe we thought we were gonna do the same thing again... I fear for Afghanistan, which has mired down invaders for centuries, and I don't think we're going to do any better.
