    First of all, I love how you linked to an article about a conflict from the second century BC, as if that justifies French and American involvement in 20th century wars against Vietnam.

    Secondly, Vietnam was not under 2100 years of subjugation by China. There have been four periods in history where Vietnam was ruled by China. The most recent was in the 1400s, and all together they come to under 1200 years.

    And none of it justifies the United States installing a puppet government in South Vietnam to oppose the Communist north after European powers partitioned Vietnam at the Treaty of Versailles.

    I can’t believe you have the nerve to call me stupid when you don’t know the basic facts of what you’re talking about (which seems to be true of every Democrat in this thread).

    All I’m learning is that Democrats don’t care about facts, and their knowledge of world conflicts doesn’t extend beyond an extreme paranoia about Russia and China.
