VietnamWhy don't we ever see any vietnam games? there are mostly WWII, Future, and modern. I think vietnam was one of the most brutal wars and I don't understand why there are probably 3 vietnam games and no WWI games. |

Because WWII was the only war in which there was clear Good vs. Evil. In Vietnam everyone was pissed because America was screwing around with things they should have, and in WWI, it mostly took place in Europe and didn't involve the west as much. We see WWII games alot because America "done good" in it. Because killing farmers defending their country isn't as blatantly justified as killing Nazis. | ||||

Think about this, did anybody protest America's participation in WWII? | ||||

Yeah, but both sides of Vietnam didn't want them there... If you look at all the stories about Iraq and such and replace the word Iraq with Vietnam, their basically the same war, about the same thing. |

||||
| Gamerulz9 |
But its nots based off of the Iraq war. | ||||
| Jspace10 |

Nobody the vietnam war, yeah its kind of like Iraq just a political war that won't end. We should've pulled out of Iraq after capturing Saddam. Let the Iraqis kill each other and then go back for the oil is what we should've done. Nope, just keep sending young adults out to Iraq to die. Why do we need to police other countries when we have our own problems to deal with?? | ||||

I concur. We need to fix our economy. luckily, Boosh will be out of office soon

This always happens, a Republican is put into office, runs up the debt and economy problems and then we get a democrat to fix it, and then repeat. | ||||
