Gen. Giap lets the liberal rat out of the bag.

General Vo Nguyen Giap. General Giap was a brilliant, highly respected leader of the North Vietnam military

The following quote is from his memoirs currently found in the Vietnam war memorial in Hanoi: "What we still don't understand is why you Americans stopped the bombing of Hanoi. You had us on the ropes.

If you had pressed us a little harder, just for another day or two, we were ready to surrender!

It was the same at the battles of TET. You defeated us!

We knew it, and we thought you knew it.

But we were elated to notice your media was definitely helping us.

They were causing more disruption in America than we could in the battlefields.

We were ready to surrender. You had won!"

General Giap has published his memoirs and confirmed what most Americans knew.

The Vietnam war was not lost in Vietnam -- it was lost at home.

The exact same slippery slope, sponsored by the US media, is currently well underway. It exposes the enormous power of a Biased Media to cut out the heart and will of the American public. A truism worthy of note: ....

Do not fear the enemy, for they can take only your life. Fear the media far more, for they will destroy your honour.

Having Japan rearm to clean up Korea!!!!!

The Japanese are still Japanese.

The Banzai is sleeping but they can and would be happy to wake it up.

I do not want to see a nuclear Japan...they have a LONG memory and some feel that they owe us two.

That is sorta like hiring some young Marines to keep an eye on your precocious 18 year old cheerleader doughtier, because you are worried that she may go out with the boys from the local fraternity while she is home along and the family is on vacation and giving them the key to the liqueur cabinet so they can dust the bottles!!!!!!!

No one to blame but our self

Unless you can restore the family structure of the west and convince Europeans and Americans to start having 4 or more kids, you had best HOPE that the third world types CAN be converted to our ideals or stand by for Ragnarök.

Say that the Europeans drive out all the Islamics, as the English drove out the Jews in the middle ages, so what?

In a generation or three, they will be back and unless we return to large families and our warrior traditions, how will we keep them out?

By that time, they will be better armed.

How many would want the wife to stay home have 6 kids, knowing the change in lifestyle that would require?

Think about it.

I found this on the net:

"Socialism on the college campus!!!
An economics professor at Texas Tech said he had never failed a singlestudent before but had, once, failed an entire class.
That class hadinsisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no onewould be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said "ok..., we will have an experiment in this class on socialism". "
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so noone would fail and no one would receive an A".
After the first test the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.
The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.
But, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too; so they studied little..
The second test average was a D!
No one was happy.When the 3rd test rolled around the average was an F.
The scores never increased as bickering, blame, name calling all resulted inhard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
Allfailed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism
would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort tosucceed is great; but when government takes all the reward away; no one will try or want to succeed.Could not be any simpler than that...."

War with China???

War with China ...that would be interesting.

Now we could win. If we waged war, but do we do that any more?

Do we even accept the CONCEPT of winning a war anymore???

I, somehow, don't think that the concept of avoiding unreasonable force is big on the Chinese army agenda...at least the Tibetans think so.

What would Japan do?

Rearm I think, remember that this is a re-do of the 30"s for Japan as well and best case have a go at China.Nightmare for us ...ally with China against us.

Question is does China fear the USA..

No, I don't think they do.

The leaders in China have a problem.

For the first time in history the common Chinaman has had a bit of the "good life": enough food..a job..a few goodies and they won't go back with out a revolution and the leaders know that.

I am sure that some of them see this whole "financial crisis" as a plot to destroy them by ruining their economics.

The party MUST fight or go economically forward to stay in power.

If as the Obama crowd claimed"our army is broken" fighting two small wars in the Mideast..How, the Chinese must be thinking, are the "long-noses" going to deal with a billion well armed Chinese?

I think that Obama will "deal" that is "Appease" China whether that will be good or bad in the long run I don't know.

karl

P.S. Just to make it clear, I don't think that our Armed Forces are broken.

My Marines, given a free hand, could burn Peking and reduce China to a laundry good only for washing our skivves...but I am not the CIC..Mr. Obama is.

I don't like Hill, but...

Re: Hillary shows her true colors: Activists 'shocked' at Clinton stance on China

If you are not going to fight and conquer and plunder as did Rome, and the West does not seem to have the heart for that anymore, you have got to negotiate and deal.

I don't like Hill but she is a realist.

Knowing that we will not force China to our will, she seeks to bargain with them.
