where did they get air from?

Italy lost a war against Brazil

>american education

why is usa so militarily pathetic?

I dunno, we removed Noriega pretty easily and your dad lost his government job causing you to forever be butthurt at the US.

>However, an Australian specialist engineering troop, 3 Field Troop, under the command of Captain Sandy MacGregor did venture into the tunnels which they searched exhaustively for four days, finding ammunition, radio equipment, medical supplies and food as well as signs of considerable Viet Cong presence.[2] One of their number, Corporal Bob Bowtell died when he became trapped in a tunnel that turned out to be a dead end. However the Australians pressed on and revealed, for the first time, the immense military significance of the tunnels. At an international press conference in Saigon shortly after Operation Crimp, MacGregor referred to his men as Tunnel Ferrets. An American journalist, having never heard of ferrets, used the term Tunnel Rats and it stuck.

I never really got why we lost because by then we already had nukes and prove we could win WWII with them. So why didn't we use a nuke on the communist base? Because its unPC? Worried about retaliation from Russia?

It seems bs but we COULD HAVE won but we chose not to.

I don't think Germany has a good track record of winning wars either, but...

>world in the brink of total nuclear war
>start flinging around nukes

golden idea

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_Germany

More victories than losses.

And at least our cases of defeat weren't against holes.

there was one extremely good tunnel rat that was hated by vietcong but can't remember his name, iirc he even wrote a book

missclicked the meme desu

idk but Italy did literally nothing against Austria-Hungary in WW1 despite being majority, and despite having specialized alpine troops.

In WW2 literally Italy was a failure in every front they fought... Ethiopia, Greece, Balkans, etc.

And then the entire world saw how the italian government paid the talibans for protection to prevent attacks on italian troops.

I haven't claimed otherwise. I just want to trigger the amerifat.

lol

haha lol

...

BASED vietcong

>Panamanian flag

Say what you will, but it's incredibly impressive just how much shit the Viet Cong were willing to endure. Those living conditions look so incredibly poor, but by enduring, it made it extremely difficult to ever beat them. Of course, it also helped that the civilian population was generally helpful to their cause and thus didn't help the Americans.

This is actually really neat. Guerrilla warfare is always interesting because of how resourceful people become when facing overwhelming opposition.

lol the only war usa has ever won is in a tiny country where you had your biggest military base, against your failure of a puppet. i wonder how many billions did you lose fixing that shit and then giving the whiole base away for free :')

>Wong, you cant just sit on a makeshift tunnel underground just to spite the Americans
>I CAN AND I WIRR

>American banter

>American damage control

lmao

and they had Giap

some user on /his/ mentioned that vietnam always fought like that against enemies too big to be fought conventionally and always won (works only in defence of course, need to know well your territory)

Vietnam doesn't have nukes. We did nuke Japan already. Why does nukes even exist if nobody is allowed to use them? We "lost" even though we completely 100% could have crushed them overnight.

>we completely 100% could have crushed them overnight.
Yeah except you totally didn't you faggot hahaha

coz burgers are stupid lol

>We "lost" even though we completely 100% could have crushed them overnight
loooooooooooooooooooooooooool

>we could if we should yadda yadda, muh kda, up until we lost we were winning and so forth

Since when Americans follow the German school of butthurt?

You guys could have won if hippies don't bitch about human rights

>We "lost" even though we completely 100% could have crushed them overnight.

Try justifying it to the international community.
Who wants to ally a country that nukes rice farmers?

Alri Jose

Since they took our scientists and tried to copy combined arms forces.

they used agent orange which is equally worse
because those people are mutants nowadays

captcha: newton orange. google stop reading my mind plezs

North Vietnam were hardly a bunch of ragtag rice farmers, they were a professionally trained military with extensive Soviet and Chinese assistance.

It's still didn't have the same stigma as nukes.

this
also you cant get much simpathy if you use nukes just because you cant win with already overwhelming strength

People who don't want to get nuked too. Who wants to be an ally to a country that loses to rice farmers? We get made fun of it on here all the time.

I don't care either way, I just say we could have won. That's all. We didn't lose because we lacked the ability to win. If we went all out we would have won. I'm not butthurt saying a fact.

Oh, and also China never actually wanted reunification of Vietnam under either the Hanoi or Saigon governments, they preferred a divided, weak Vietnam.

You just gave a goldmine of propaganda to the soviet union.

...

north vietnam =/= vietcongs

ALSO people say nukes are un-PC and not okay....but don't they kill people instantly? Would you rather be nuked and die instantly or get shot and slowly die bleeding or from a wound infection? Nuke = Boom thats it. Gun/regular bomb = long and drawn out death. If we dropped Nukes on day 1 of WWII then millions and millions of lives would have been saved. Its totally arbitrary, either way you are killing people. Just one is instant. Oh wait but USA has nukes and some of the most in the world 2nd only to Russia IIRC. So it gets demonized a lot more by smaller countries who know we can win if we used them.

Ultimately I don't care and its kinda Vietnam's loss because they are a Communist shithole while South Korea is 1st world tier.

burgers have record of friendly fire
by forcing them to fight conventionally we can increase the numbers of dead burgers
it's pretty good

please be real

It's true. The truth is that antiwar activists were never more than a minority of the population and a lot of them were funded by the KGB. The vast majority of Americans wanted to carry the war to victory and bitchslap those damn gommies.

And most enlisted men in the US military were rednecks from the South and Midwest, the antiwar protesters on college campuses were in no danger of being drafted themselves.

ITT: countries whose inhabitants were thrown into holes in the ground

>ITALY

Its real Tell me why dying slowly from a bullet is better than dying instantly from a Nuke? Other than USA has 6800 nukes and Italy has....0?

Hehe

>Dying instantly from a Nuke
And if you don't your fucking body slowly melts from radiation poisoning you retard.
Most of the deaths from nuking japan were not from the initial blast.

...

Fun fact: The Americans thought they were fighting an ideological war, while the Vietnamese thought they were fighting an independence war.

It's real

lol i have a military base literally 4km from here and know all the security, i could kidnap a nuke right now and detonate it in the closer gipsy camp if i wanted

>We "lost" even though we completely 100% could have crushed them overnight

WHERE'S

East Europe is to West Europe what North Korea is to South Korea is what Vietnam is to what Vietnam could have been if USA had won.

It wasn't an ideological war, it was to stymie the spread of communist/Soviet puppet governments in South Asia as per the domino theory.

As you said, the only way you could have won is if you nuked the place. Nuking places doesn't make them better.

At the end of the war you went "all out" and launched a massive bombing campaign out of pure frustration. The bombing did almost nothing, while you lost a ton of B52's to Russian SAM's.

...

>if USA had won
Vietnam is a key US ally now. Something like three quarters of the Vietnamese population has a positive view of America. We are their largest export partner and trade in the tens of $billions. We've won the long game in every practical sense.

If China becomes more assertive with their territorial claims in the future, Vietnam (along with the Philippines) will be the staging area for checking their influence.

>As you said, the only way you could have won is if you nuked the place. Nuking places doesn't make them better.
Japan is way way better now than it was in 1920s or whenever it was pre-nuke. From the ashes you rebuild and it helps create a lot of jobs. So far 100% of countries who got nuked completely recovered and then some.

Cool I didn't know that.

Yes we've also managed to overlook the fact that their human rights/political repression record is not a lot better than China's.

>That underground movie theatre

Why does that seem so comfy?

>it was to stymie the spread of communist/Soviet puppet governments in South Asia as per the domino theory.

That's still an ideological war though.

The average Vietnamese didn't see it that way though. An illiterate rice farmer didn't know/care about Lenin or communism. He saw it as a continuation of the independence war that they fought against the Japanese, the French and finally the Americans.

Ukraine isnt doing that great, but it wasnt a literal nuke

Plus didn't they get rebuild by commies and not USA? That is a one way ticket to fail city

Rebuild by Commies --> FAIL
Rebuild by USA --> A+

Sadly though we take on all the work and get none of the thanks.

Well, at least we got S.T.A.L.K.E.R. out of it, so that's a plus.

Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong were the real benefactors of the Vietnam War anyway. Since a considerable amount of US industry was tied up in supporting the war effort, extensive imports of Asian goods made up for the shortfall.

That's if you consider the Cold War to be an ideological conflict. Communism was just the boogeyman to cudgel Russia with. Vietnam was, in the bigger sense, ultimately a proxy war between the two superpowers vying for geo-political domination in Asia

Go back to Sup Forums you fucking dipshit. Contributing absolutely nothing to the discussion.

I never even been to Sup Forums I've been on Sup Forums longer than you. What I wrote is true and you know it so maybe YOU go back to Sup Forums dumbass

Not to mention their government was NK tier with punishing its civilians if they didn't fight. A-la "I'll kill your children by biting them alive"

Ayy

Shouldn't you be in school now?

You can be based too, if you would play Rising Storm 2 Vietnam. Tonnels are implemented in that game.

So, you say, that you don't want to?

i live in the camp too :/

>WWII
>Germany stomps France, takes combined French, UK, US, and Russian forces to be defeated
>Japan thrashing the Pacific, fights every inch of the US island hopping to Japan, takes not one but two fucking nukes to defeat
>Italy does nothing, basically loses the war for Axis powers on their own by letting Germany get flanked from the south, can't even beat small fraction of US/UK armies

At least the other Axis Powers TRIED, Italy.
