Thread Name: BS: Were Vietnam veterans spat upon?
Subject: RE: BS: Were Vietnam veterans spat upon?
There is a notion running through this post, and in our interpretation of the end of the war, that the US lost... to reiterate what I said in the BS Kent State thread, I reviewed some old propaganda from the era, and found two FORTUNE magazine advertisements, one from Eaton Yale and Towne Inc. referring to itself as a multinational corporation, doing business in the pacific rim, and that business is GREAT...another by CHEMICAL BANK, which starts WHEN YOU NEED SOMETHING MORE DIPLOMATIC THAN A GUNBOAT...

Watching the two parties of big business in the US voting MFN status for China, I say the war in Viet Nam accomplished just what it intended, so who were the winners/losers?

some of my friends , who went to Viet Nam, never reallized what they were fighting for. and some of my friends in the anti-war movement never knew what they were fighting against.
