Default Re: Could We Have Won Vietnam?

[ QUOTE ]
The deliberate targeting of civilians as if they were combatants is terrorism. I don't think it was collateral damage, it was deliberate.

[/ QUOTE ]

It doesnt matter whether it was deliberate or not. Citizens are at risk in a war, period. It isn't terrorism when it is carried out by uniformed soldiers in the context of a war.

That has nothing to do with whether the action was right or wrong, but labels are important, and this one doesnt fit.

No comment on the statistics? I see youve brushed up on your Chompsky, "Its our fault, it wouldnt have happened if we hadn't been there".

Disgusting [censored].
