Is there a medal for most comprehensible thread title?

   

Yes but England did not acheieve their goal of taking back the 13 colonies. From there on in they were forced to recognize American soverignty. It was the final Battle of the Revolution. For it did more for the USA than the Revolution did.

   

I'm getting pretty god damn tired of all the bullshit arguments. Seriously, you sound like school children in a playground.. "yeh well we won so and so" " so? we got more of so and so than you". Please, act like mature adults. When will people stop proclaiming they won this and someone kicked so and so's ass. Just get over it, whatever it is, the argument will never stop because both sides will never budge on their opinion and neither will the others, so i ask you, what in the hell is the point? Arguing over a battle 193 years ago or whatever is just pointless..all i see is the same bickering by the same people..with the only change being the bullshit they're arguing about. Please guys, you should all realise how silly you look when your having these petty arguments.

   

It's true folk - it's about as relevant as using the 431 BC Peloponnesian war between the Spartans and Athenians to 'prove' who is the hardest type of Greek.

Vietnam, on the other hand, is still very relevant re. the very subtle *cough cough* "We can subjugate any nation on this earth if we God damn want to!" bellicose kinda attitude that some American's have re. their way of handling differences of opinion between nations etc.

Our French-Canadian comrade was brave enough to express himself in English, do we really have to flame people because English is not their primary language of communication?

   

Odd how the yanks defeated the well equiped Japanese Empire but lost to a bunch of outnumbered ill equiped rebels in a third world country. I guess they arent so strong afterall.

   

You forgot:

Backed by the Chinese

Left winged whiners support from back home. Same people helping out with the problems today.

   

So were the North Koreans and you won there!

   

YOU ?

I'm canadian and my father was in Korea, did you forget that canada was there?

   

The war of 1812 was mostly about the USA asserting it's soveriegnty with Britain and France. Mission accomplished on both counts. But, both Britain and France retaliated years later when they allied themselves with the Confederacy in the American Civil War.

British and French intrigues in the US Civil War almost led to the USA entering WW1 on the German side.

   

Of course I knew we were there. But the vast majority of the people there were American. It was an American war.

   

The USA lost in Vietnam because the left-wing liberals defeated our troops at home. The VC did not win this war, the USA lost it because the traitors in the USA like Jane Fonda and Walter Cronkite instigated people against their own country and actively supported and encouraged the enemy.

   

Happening today as well, Just new traitors

   

You should moderate it and call it the WTF??? medal.

   

How is it treacherous to practise freedom of speech? The war was illegal under international law.

Oh and then there was Mai Lai.

   

Really? Please cite the law in effect in 1955 that made the war illegal when France started fighting the Communists?
