Friskyone: My dad is a Vietnam veteran with a purple heart. He never, ever talks about it. He even still has his original combat boots and a few other things.
My dad seldom talked about his experience over and in Europe during WWII either. My older brother talked about Nam. It is not my intent for this thread to be only about the conflicts in Vietnam though.

Friskyone: Who knows
If you agree with the other posters in this thread, I agree with your father that he shouldn't talk to you about it.
Vietnam was three countries before the French stuck it all together. The later partition cut the unnatural amalgum in half. The good guys fled south but the Commies stayed in the south and became Vietnam. That there was a wholesale slaughter after the Americans left as well as brain wasing camps (re-education) is no surprise. Enough said. You people are too uneducated.

The only thing the French stuck together in Vietnam was mass murder after the stupid catholic pricks invaded the country. Eisenhower continued the stupid christian attempt to screw the people of Vietnam when the idiot, along with Australian prime minister put together S.E.A.T.O in 1954 and attempted to resettle all the christian converts in north Vietnam in South Vietnam, America shipped thousands of christian Vietnamese into the south and gave the Christians land owned by South Vietnamese Buddhists.
TTKSpectr your talking utter rubbish:
Buddhism in Vietnam (Ð?o Ph?t or Ph?t Giáo in Vietnamese), as practised by the ethnic Vietnamese, is mainly of the Mahayana tradition. Buddhism may have first come to Vietnam as early as the 3rd or 2nd century BCE from the Indian subcontinent.

Friskyone: I'm really not suggesting anything other than the fact that he doesn't ever speak of his experience. I wish he would though.
Why would he want to? The goddamned thing dragged on and on with no "light at the end of the tunnel," to quote a contemporary cliche, and some of us were glad when it FINALLY stopped. The whole thing was a vicious, orchestrated lie foisted on a very, very, very stupid public. It will have value only if it reminds people not to let it happen again.

BTW, back then we boys were always told that if we dodged the draft, we would never find a decent job. Who would have imagined the Presidency ??

doh
Do you think one of you could bother Allah or Muhammad
Carl Marx had steal the main parts of his economical theory from the Islam economic system but he abused the Right to own property , Right to inheritance etc etc
So even Carl Marx inspired some how by Islam ,
The smartphone and computers you insulting Islam with is based on logarithm and the logarithm in fact came out because of Zakat in Islam (kind of taxation) and for solving the inheritance matters according to Quran teachings .
Both of you are nothing
Literally you both are nothing
Both of you have existence doubts that you running from because your pathetic existing self awareness bother you a lot so you running to very public matters while you are without direction you will ended up miserably crushed

Mikey,religions are not race, you can change your religion ; but you can't change your nationality or race ; even if you are a citizen of another country .

Why should I believe something I know it is a lie? am I stupid?
