I'm very, very sorry that you feel that way

It is not a feeling, it is a fact.

1 We went to Vietnam to conduct defensive war to support a sovereign country defeat an invasion and insurgency. The support to Vietnam did not violate international law.

2. We went to Iraq to conduct an offensive war to promote the interests of a variety of policy elites. The invasion of Iraq violated international law.

3. Our political leadership in Vietnam understood only ground forces could defeat another military, maybe because they had served in war

4. Our political leadership here thinks that you can win a war with air power, likely because they are bitches who have never served.

5. Our enemy in Vietnam was not subsidized by our "allies".

6. We continue to support and prop up the very regimes who support ISIL, could you imagine propping up the Soviet Union or kissing the ring of Brezhnev while we fought in Vietnam.

7. Although we bombed Cambodia and destabilized their country at least it was unintentional.

8. Initially Hundreds of Thousands of Americans proudly went to Vietnam and our country supported the war until they realized it was not worth the treasure. Today Americans will demand action but will ruin the US military by making it a mercenary force.
