Whats the difference between a "loss" and a "military defeat" then?
I suppose that if you haven't yet figured it out after 300+ posts and numerous explanations that you aren't likely to figure it out with yet another explanation, are you? |

Hey Guys
I am getting so fed up with the "If it wasnt for the US you would all be speaking German" brigade at work. I need some comebacks that will make them look like the propergander believing twats they are! Rob I usually retort "If it wasn't for the British, you would all be speaking Spanish":eek::thumbsup: We will never surrender.....Winston Churchill. Fastest way to make the Americans annoyed.....hang up a Union Jack and set fire to that stripey tablecloth of a rag they call stars and stripes |

Again, nuance ain't yer bag, I guess.

Clearly, Vietnam was not a military defeat... Originally Posted by RoadWarriorFromLP Vietnam was a loss. Nevermind all that "nuance" bullshit. You've made 2 different statements here in 2 seperate posts. Earlier in the thread you claimed that Vietnam was NOT a loss but here you are calling it that very word? Are you on medication? Try to reply without hiding behind the word "nuance". |

I realize that it takes all kinds to make an Internet, but I find it hard to believe that you seem to actually be proud of carting around a black-and-white simplistic worldview that you mistake for thought. I think that I've covered ad nauseum that is possible to achieve military gains but suffer political losses simultaneously, and that blowing stuff up in a grandiose fashion does not always lead to a political win, despite what the right-wingers may claim. Unless you become able to illustrate some ability to actually comprehend the argument, I won't be bothered to explain it again. |

Am I missing the joke, that this is some elaborate pisstake that you've orchestrated deliberately to make yourself looking dimmer than a broken lightbulb?

Win or lose - that's pretty black and white.
"Good news, sir. We're winning the defeat!" :lol: |
