@@rafaelalodio5116so would Germany have won ww1 too if they won ww2? Because be your logic if a country signs a peace treaty but still inevitably accomplishes their goals of the war, even after their enemy pulls out, it’s a victory. If Germany won ww2 the only difference between that and the Vietnam war would be that Germany won 20 years later, and north Vietnam took over the south 2 years after their peace treaty. Yes, you can say the us lost the war by proxy, but the war between the north and the viet cong vs the US, not when they were fighting by proxy, was a US Victory. The us pulled their troops from Vietnam after a successful peace treaty that ended the same way the Korean War did. The only difference in those two is that nk didn’t take over South Korea 2 years later. I can fully agree to the sentiment that the war was inconclusive, but to say that the us lost the Vietnam war is to say that the us lost the Korean War too.

[@rafaelalodio5116]

@ Germany didn’t achieved their goals, not in WWI neither in the second one. And the US didn’t won in Korea either.

[@Caped__Baldy]

@ that’s why I said “if” dawg. Also you kind of proved my point about the United States “winning” the Vietnam war although at the end of the day this is a an argument about semantics. You said the us didn’t win the Korean War, but did not say that they lost it. You can not win and not lose a war at the same time. Just like the Korean War was indecisive, the Vietnam war was the same way. They were both proxy wars in which the us did not win or lose. If you want to claim the us lost the Vietnam war then the Korean War has to be lose too, however, you’ll notice from both this video and any outlet online, no one is claiming the us lost the Korean War. The only reason there’s such a strong sentiment and preconceived notion around the world that the us lost in Vietnam is because of the political discourse the war caused in the 60s and 70s. Approval ratings of the war were horrendous even from the start, so of course people are going to bash it any way they can. It’s the same way how the invasion of Afghanistan went from 100% approval on 9/12, to most people being against the war in hindsight after the Kabul airport incident in 2021. What’s a “win” and what’s a “loss” will always be dictated by biases and propaganda at the end of the day. There’s no conclusive result to any war since there’s no universal framework for judging so

One correction Vietnam was a bit more inconclusive on who "won," a peace agreement was signed in 1973 in France and the war officially ended, the only US forces that were there in South Vietnam was the US embassy in 1975. You can't end a conflict that had all parties made peace and start a new one and say you won the last conflict because you won the one you started.

[@gravygraves5112]

I agree with the technicality, the reason it's considered a loss for us though is we failed in our main objective to keep communism from spreading in Southern Asia and failed to come to the aid of Southern Vietnam when the north broke the treaty.

I would say the very famous photo of the Korean peninsula showing south Korea full of lights and life compared to an almost completely dark north Korea pretty much shows it was a victory. As far as Vietnam and afghanistan.......they were technically losses in the regard that we left.....even though we won all the battles. That's the problem with fighting irregular all you have to do is last longer then the stronger party till the opinions at home turn against the conflict (vietnam) or till you realize your goal will never happen and just decide to leave (afghanistan).

The treaty in 1973 would have ended the war as a U.S. Victory, but the USA failed to enforce its treaty when North Vietnam broke it. On the other hand, the occupation of Iraq is (at least so far) a victory for the USA and the current Iraqi government.

His "Vietnamisation" plan slowly but surely withdrew nearly all US troops by 1972, and by the time the North Vietnamese punched through to Saigon in 1975, America was busy dealing with what became a major energy crisis and in no way willing to intervene any further than evacuation.

What about the salvadoran civil war?

[@tinman9738]

@@St_Texas Good question. It probably falls under the Cold War category. We didn’t really fight in the Salvadoran Civil war (so far as we know officially 😉). We provided the government with intelligence, all the money it wanted, and supplies. Only 1 American military personnel died from assassination. If we were to include them we would have to include every Latin American country we had a spy war or did a coup against. If you want to know more research operation Condor.

Wrong Mexican-American war was a victory for the Lone Star Republic of Texas

[@Mauro_Calleros08]

Do you know why that war took place? The Mexican government wanted to populate Texas and California since almost no one lived there, so they allowed some Americans to work those lands.

[@Mauro_Calleros08]

On the condition that they spoke Spanish and were Catholic. But the gringos did not care about these laws, they populated Texas without control and wanted to become independent. But it was already a plan of the United States.

[@someboi4505]

Wouldn't that be the Texas revolution? Like this is a separate conflict

[@Mauro_Calleros08]

@@someboi4505 It is not the same conflict, but it is related. The United States had wanted Texas and California for a long time, so it took advantage of the opportunity that the Mexican government had given to landowners to work those lands. It sent its own citizens to carry out its plan.
