Nice exercise in semantics. The US did not lose a war in Vietnam
because they have decided that technically it was not a war,
presumably?

The United States did not lose the Vietnam militarily. They lost it
politically.

Yep. After failing to achieve a military victory

Name one battle lost by US forces in Vietnam.

Losing the war as a whole and limping hime with your tail between your
legs isn't good enough for you?

(BTW, get ready for more of the same medicine in Iraq. Seems you guys
get to relearn the limits of military power every generation.)

Interesting revisionist history.

What's revisionist? The part that already happened, or the one that will
happen?
