To Althea: Get your facts straight before you spout Communist talking points.
The Korean and the Vietnam wars were not military defeats:
America used a small percentage of its military might and WEAPONRY in Iraq and Afghanistan. Should it ever come to an all-out war this country fights to win instead of fighting PEACE WITHOUT VICTORY wars like Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq type wars, it would not take long to defeat an enemy country, or countries, so long as the U.S. military is fighting for their country not fighting for the U.N.’s global agenda.

Korea was the first PEACE WITHOUT VICTORY war. It ended in a truce. American troops are still there:
. . . the U.N.’s Korean War is technically the longest war because it never ended thanks to President Wilson’s PEACE WITHOUT VICTORY war policy.

Do you think the U.S. Military was sent packing in Iraq?
A United Nations INTERNATIONAL COALITION in the Gulf War stopped Bush the Elder from going all the way to Bagdad. Had Bush toppled Saddam Hussein in 1990 there would have been no need to invade Iraq after 9-11-2001.
Parenthetically, media mouths applauded Bush the Elder’s Desert Storm because the U.N. was in charge from start to finish. Desert Storm —— like Korea —— was a Peace Without Victory war. Total Victory was secondary. Total defeat in the Vietnam War was primary because the United Nations opposed victory.

Incidentally, the Korean and Vietnam Wars were fought for the same reason with one major difference separating the two. The United Nations supported the Korean War while it opposed the Vietnam War. Hence, anti-Vietnam War demonstrators brought retreat and political defeat to their own country, while demonstrating against the Korean War would have amounted to demonstrating against the United Nations, the one thing Communists will never do.

The United Nations did not sanction the Vietnam War that ended in a political defeat:
John Kerry was not famous when he first betrayed the country. Kerry was a U.S. Senator in 1995 when General Bui Tin was interviewed:
You can bet that the crowd in Hanoi were shaking their heads in bewilderment when Kerry first went to Congress. Kerry did give the old Commies a good laugh when they saw the traitor they met in Paris in 1971 go on to run for president and later become secretary of state. In short: Bui Tin had every reason to save Kerry from disgrace by not thanking him publicly along with Jane Fonda, Ramsey Clark et al.
Kerry not becoming president in 2004 was the one and only time he disappointed North Vietnam.

Afghanistan is also a United Nations war. Then-Senator Biden called for that war —— while President
Basically, U.N.-lovers in both parties do not want to see the United Nations get the blame for starting the Afghanistan War. Naturally, withdrawal will give American Communists another opportunity to claim another victory over the U.S. Military.
Parenthetically, the United Nations spent decades trying to tell the U.S. Military where it fights, and what it fights for; so any money Democrats give to the U.S. Military will end up in United Nations hands to pay for U.N. sanctioned wars as well as serve the U.N. as so-called ‘Peacekeepers’.
To Althea: Only God knows how many billions China’s & Russia’s military-industrial-complexes spend on obsolete weapons.
This one gave me a laugh:
Finally, John Kerry gave Iran billions to develop nuclear bombs. Ask John Kerry if he considered nuclear weapons obsolete.
To ThatOwlWoman: It must be true because the U.S. Military never loses even when they are betrayed politically from within.
