And funding our allies does not mean we created them artificially
not saying that
don't know how to say this
let me phrase it like
alot of countries weren't supposed to happen?
Korea was meant to be united but that plan went out the window
Germany was meant to be something else, whatever happened was not part of the plan
Israel is a debatable 1
it survived up to 25 years with a lack of any western support
back to the topic of Vietnam though
let's place ourselves in a scenario where the south wins
ok?
aight
then what?
do you predict the government falls within years?
no
It'll be rough for a long time
pretty poor
but around the late 2000s things would start cookin
wht about the rise of China?
They wouldn't invade once we won
wouldn't China's dominance in the region hinder alot of growth
It would be like a S. Korea 2
Not anymore than it would have for South Korea
And to a lesser degree japan
Why did US lose the vietnam war tho
Because they did cucked on purpose throughout war to literal sabotage
Failed at coalescing anything out of south veitnam
Never crossed the border
Probably was for the better though in a way
We did not commit to the war
Victory for us would mean a quick war
The longer we took to come to full strength the worse it was for us
If we had attacked in full strength and quickly overrun the north focusing on taking important locations rather than bodies we would have done a lot better
Yeah well those fucking vietcongs with their jungles and boobytraps
hahaha
booby
ahahahahhahaa
boobs
@Obungus I mean, occupying the North wouldnt have been such a good idea with the whole guerrilla warfare and all
It was a pointless war
South Vietnam wasn't really an innocent nation either, they had a leader who was anti-Buddhist before he was taken out.
They never really had a stable government
