58k vs ~667k at best
Till you dropped 2 nukes on them
It's likely 800k or something
You still lost the vietnam war though
The communists won
What was our goal?
Take over Vietnam? Not really.
It was to stop the Soviet influence, which was done.
Soviets realised America is ready to fight back any intervention by the USSR.
If you think we can't win against Iran boy...
I'm pretty sure their government would be toppled in a few weeks of an invasion.
You could win
But it's gonna be a devastating fight
It wouldn't even be close.
It really would
Their air power is 0, naval is 0
So we already have a massive advantage
We already win on the ground too, much better units.
Anyways this is bout Trump, I guess your kinda right?
But still starting a war with Iran could trigger a bigger war
I'm just saying we weren't going to start a war, Trump had it under control.
He didin't ^^
Look at what happened? Nothing.
We killed top terrorists and walked away.
No but things could've happened
They could've, but they didn't. Because it was all planned properly.
"Planned properly"
Iran was never going to retaliate, all they did was fire rockets to save face. Didn't kill anyone.
If Trump was acting on impulse he would have retaliated again, but he didn't - he said "Iran looks to be standing down" and nothing happened since.
Anyways what so great about your stupid president?
Donald Trump
Well he's not stupid, so that's for one.
He is
The prevailing of cooler heads in Iran is not a triumph of foreign policy
(He is stupid, but that’s neither here nor there)
