It is public opinion that is keeping the US from using boots on the ground.
- samrus 2mo agoAnd what prevented those boots on the ground from winning in vietnam?
- thehappypm 2mo agoThe objectives are wildly different. Vietnam is more like asking the question, could the US Military occupy all of Iran? Which I think the answer is essentially No, just like Vietnam. The strait is one small objective , and the US had lots of successes in Vietnam with capturing key strategic areas, they just couldn’t cover that into a successful occupation
- elendilm 2mo agoSure. Public opinion must also have signed the war reparations of 300 billion. Last I checked war reparations are paid by the losing side to the winning side. US military strength is air and naval forces. Not ground troops. They will get slaughtered if they go against Iran on the ground let alone Yemen. It's sad, the idiots who signs the deployment is signing the death warrant of the US ground troops. This is not Afghanistan.
