MORE...March 29, 1973 - The last remaining American troops withdraw from Vietnam as President Nixon declares "the day we have all worked and prayed for has finally come."
America's longest war, and its first defeat, thus concludes.
September 1974 - The U.S. Congress appropriates only $700 million for South Vietnam.
This leaves the South Vietnamese Army under-funded and results in a decline of military readiness and morale.
- THAT'S RIGHT: THE LAST US TROOPS LEFT IN 1973.
- AND SAIGON DIDN'T FALL UNTIL 1975.
- THAT'S RIGHT: 1975 - LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER THE LIBERAL DEMOCRAT DOVES OF CONGRESS PULLED THE PLUG ON FINANCING THE SOUTH VIETNAMESE GOVERNMENT.
Historians have directly attributed the fall of Saigon in 1975 to the cessation of American aid. Without the necessary funds, South Vietnam found it logistically and financially impossible to defeat the North Vietnamese army.
Moreover, the withdrawal of aid encouraged North Vietnam to begin an effective military offensive against South Vietnam.
Given the monetary and military investment in Vietnam, former Assistant Secretary of State Richard Armitage compared the American withdrawal to “a pregnant lady, abandoned by her lover to face her fate.” 2
Historian Lewis Fanning went so far as to say that “it was not the Hanoi communists who won the war, but rather the American Congress that lost it.” 3
- ONLY THEN DID THE NORTH VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE PEACE TREATY AND INVADE ON TOPPLE THE SOUTH.
- A LONGTIME SUPPORTER OF OBAMA - (WHO ONCE WROTE A COLUMN INN WHICH HE QUOTED OBAMA CALLING THE MUSLIM CALL TO PRAYER ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS IN THE WORLD, AND THEN PROCEEDED TO SING IT BY HEART! A COLUMN NOW CONVENIENTLY DELETED FROM THE NYTIMES' ARCHIVES!) --
- YES: NICHOLAS KRISTOF - WHOSE COLUMN SPEAKS FOR THE DOVES WHO PULLED THE PLUG ON SP8TH VIETNAM, AND WHO CONTROL THE CONGRESS ONCE AGAIN - IS NOW ADVOCATING THE USA PULL THE PLUG ON PAKISTAN!
YUP: KRISTOF WANTS US TO SLOW AID TO AN ALLY ON THE MOST IMPORTANT FRONT IN THE WAR!!
- THE DOVES OF THE LEFT THEY NEVER FUCKIN' LEARN. ASSHOLES. IT'S AS IF THEY WANT PAKISTAN'S NUKES TO FALL INTO JIHADISTS' HANDS.
- THE FALL OF SOUTH VIETNAM LED TO 4 MILLION DEATHS: 3.5 MILLION AT THE HANDS OF LEFTIST POL POT AND 500,000 WHO DIED FLEEING SOUTH VIETNAM AS IT FELL UNDER NORTH VIETNAM'S LEFTIST TYRANNY.
- ALL FOUR MILLION OF THESE DEAD - ALL THEIR BLOOD IS ON THE HANDS OF THE DEMOCRAT DOVES OF THE CONGRESS OF 1975.
- IF THEY DO THE SAME THING AGAIN - IF OBAMA TAKES KRISTOF'S ADVICE - THEN TODAY'S BLOODBATH IN SOUTH ASIA WILL MAKE THE ONE IN SOUTHEAST ASIA IN THE LATE 1970'S LOOK LIKE A PIN-PRICK.
- HOW SAD AND SENSELESS, HOW UTTERLY UNNECESSARY. HOW TYPICAL OF THE LEFT: UNABLE TO LEARN FROM HISTORY.
WE NEED TO CRUSH THE TALIBAN AND AL QAEDA, NOT FINANCIALLY SQUEEZE OR ABANDON OUR SHAKY ALLIANCE WITH THE PAKISTANIS.
- WE CAN DEMAND MORE AND MORE, BUT NOT THREATEN THEM - THAT WOULD BE LIKE CUTTING OFF OUR OWN NOSE.
- OBAMA AND THE LEFTIE DOVES OF CONGRESS ARE PROBABLY GOING TO FOLLOW KRISTOF'S ADVICE AND GET TOUGHER ON OUR ALLIES WHO ARE ON THE FRONT LINES IN WW4, (IRAQ, AFGHANISTAN, PAKISTAN - EVEN ISRAEL) AND APPEASE THE ENEMY.

Reliapundit, another great post, as usual.
Sadly, we already are starting to exacerbate Pakistan when we pressured them to re-introduce "democracy" by outing Musharraf.
Make no mistake, I have no illusion about him, but just like the Shah he was the best option in Pakistan...a country with nuclear weapons!
Kristof is an utter and complete idiot, I have no faith that HUSSEIN is going to conduct the War on Terror in a proper fashion.
Probably he is going to double up on hiring ACLU types, so we can send them to NWFP in order to certify we are reading everybody their rights, getting Taliban approved Korans in jails and being told where Mecca is during prayer hours.
Kristoff, just like Bernard Lewis at the NYT and Herbert Matthews before him, have always run cover for evil, be it Castro, the Khmer Rouge or now Al Qaeda & the Taliban.
CARLOS - WELL SAID.
