So, the feeling of déjà vu is overwhelming.<br /><br />That said, the uncounted tens of thousands of Vietnamese who tried to flee after we had pulled out at least had access to the sea and could--however desperately--at least attempt an escape. How many perished miserably at sea, unseen and unknown, can't even be guessed at. Yet, of the many thousands who did make it to The States, the vast majority became patriotic citizens who, after an inevitably painful period of adjustment, all settled in with remarkably high degree of success. Far from becoming "burdensome refugees," they became wealth producing, tax paying citizens. A remarkable number of these settled in my native Oklahoma City (similar hot, humid summers?) and have elevated the community. Visit our "Little Saigon" if you wish to see what hard working, grateful refugees can accomplish in a single generation!<br /><br />But, what about the Afghans who, if possible, face a far more certain future of extermination and subjugation at the hands of the Taliban Cave Men than the South Vietnamese ever did from the Communists? They have no ocean to turn to, however desperately, being surrounded by more enemies of the US and the West in general. Those comparatively few who may escape in the next few days must be given all the protection and aid this country can afford--assuming we wish to salvage any part of our national honor after the feckless abandonment of them and their cause.<br /><br />But too many Americans, it seems, may be inclined to see these new refugees not as former allies, but "Just more Muslims/Ragheads/Jihadists" when they are, in fact people who embraced what the West had to offer. It doesn't help that our "President" has just tarred them with the brush of being cowards and ingrates, either.<br /><br />I don't know how well these new refugees will fare here, but I wish them well and encourage the rest of us to cut them some slack as they try to adjust--which will be harder than hell.<br /><br />Remember, someday some of US may have to flee our former homes and seek safety in another country thanks to the new Taliban of The Woke frantically trying to make the world their own.<br /><br />TVAGTVAGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279387104969812837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-20163825646436228422021-08-18T12:35:33.537-05:002021-08-18T12:35:33.537-05:00Zing!

But reality is that the "peace" negotiated by President Nixon was little more than a fig leaf to allow America to withdraw. The 1973 peace treaty called for all foreign troops to be withdrawn from RVN, all foreign troops except for PAVN (the North Vietnamese Army) that is. While supposedly bound by the ceasefire, PAVN was allowed to remain in the areas of RVN that they controlled. The ceasefire was overseen by a force composed of troops from Hungary, Poland, Canada and Indonesia. Within days of the ceasefire these troops stopped monitoring the areas controlled by PAVN because their helicopters routinely took fire when flying over PAVN controlled areas. I burn with shame when I think about how we betrayed RVN and abandoned them to the communists.Elbartohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09274087427287344317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-14048640090164922182021-08-18T11:36:30.081-05:002021-08-18T11:36:30.081-05:00David Halberstam's The Best and the Brightest ...David Halberstam's <i>The Best and the Brightest</i> tried to canonize JFK and I think became the "what really happened" as JFK was being raised to god status. <br />I didn't see JFK as being any less a warhawk on Vietnam than anyone else in the government at the time.<br />I remember, while serving in Vietnam, that Lady Bird was supposed to be a major stockholder in Alaska Barge which did a bit of work in Vietnam.

They all thought they were smart enough to play military commander when they were clearly out of their depth. A lesson Hitler failed to learn (thankfully) and one Stalin initially didn't learn either. Once Stalin understood he was part of the problem, he pulled back and let those trained to fight wars do what they were trained to do. The same with LBJ. Put it another way, can you imagine FDR and or Churchill deciding what the next day's military targets were to be? <br />Fish Out of Waterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04729449106447506298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-49062714043575951812021-08-18T10:09:06.679-05:002021-08-18T10:09:06.679-05:00I had a friend who served in Korea and Nam.
