If Nixon hadn't sent his people to Vietnam in the late 60's and promise the Vietcong a better deal if they walked away from negotiations, He wouldn't have been able to run on 'winning the war' and we would have been out of Vietnam FIVE YEARS EARILER. Nixon was a fuck up, and is still screwing the world today. Piece of shit.

Well, at least the Viet Cong got their better deal, right?

Well they won the war, if that’s what you mean. But I imagine they would’ve liked to not be bombed for years and suffer enormous casualties and environmental damage

No need to go back that far, the irak war after 9/11 was a resource hog by itself. 600 trillions if I recall ?
