Is it possible to discuss the Vietnam War without a nationalistic pissing match from breaking out?
I realize it's a difficult topic to discuss, but let's try and keep it civil.

[EDITED TO PLEASE NAB]
Anyways, this is obviously going nowhere. Thanks for the debate eric, it's been a slice.
Did I not just mention something about keeping it civil?

Ideologically speaking, I don't believe any war is "winnable" if it's not being fought for purely immediately self defensive reasons. A military adventure like Vietnam is always bound to fail.

Wars arent meant to be won, they are meant to be fought.
