What McNamara Learned from Viet Nam
What McNamara Learned from Viet Nam
01/26/2004 03:00 PM History may not repeat itself, but it does rhyme a lot. -- Mark Twain
As much as it might have served my rhetorical purposes, I have been
reluctant to draw parallels between our involvements in Viet Nam and
Iraq. Most such comparisons seem invidious and over-wrought. Still, in
a compelling January 24 column in the Toronto Globe and Mail, Doug
Saunders cites a list of lessons that Robert McNamara said (in his
1995 book Retrospect) he had gleaned from his soul-searching autopsy
of the American defeat in Viet Nam. I repeat them here for the
purposes of discussion. Based on the course of the Iraqi invasion thus
far, some of them seem chillingly familiar. The question arises, if we
are repeating some or all of the same errors, how can we proceed from
this point to a more positive result than we obtained in Southeast
Asia. McNamara's List: We misjudged then -- and we have since -- the
geopolitical intentions of our adversaries . . . and we exaggerated
the dangers to the United States of their actions. We viewed the
people and leaders of South Vietnam in terms of our own experience. .
. . We totally misjudged the political forces within the country. We
underestimated the power of nationalism to motivate a people to fight
and die for their beliefs and values. Our judgments of friend and foe
alike reflected our profound ignorance of the history, culture, and
politics of the people in the area, and the personalities and habits
of their leaders. We failed then -- and have since -- to recognize the
limitations of modern, high-technology military equipment, forces and
doctrine. . . . We failed as well to adapt our military tactics to the
task of winning the hearts and minds of people from a totally
different culture. We failed to draw Congress and the American people
into a full and frank discussion and debate of the pros and cons of a
large-scale military involvement . . . before we initiated the action.
After the action got under way and unanticipated events forced us off
our planned course . . . we did not fully explain what was happening
and why we were doing what we did. We did not recognize that neither
our people nor our leaders are omniscient. Our judgment of what is in
another people's or country's best interest should be put to the test
of open discussion in international forums. We do not have the
God-given right to shape every nation in our image or as we choose. We
did not hold to the principle that U.S. military action . . . should
be carried out only in conjunction with multinational forces supported
fully (and not merely cosmetically) by the international community. We
failed to recognize that in international affairs, as in other aspects
of life, there may be problems for which there are no immediate
solutions. . . . At times, we may have to live with an imperfect,
untidy world. Underlying many of these errors lay our failure to
organize the top echelons of the executive branch to deal effectively
with the extraordinarily complex range of political and military
issues. By the way, Saunders says that, in a phone conversation with
McNamara, the latter rendered the following opinion of the Iraqi
invasion, "We're misusing our influence. It's just wrong what we're
doing. It's morally wrong, it's politically wrong, it's economically
wrong." If that is so, what do we do now?...

11/13/2003 10:02 AM Pretend for the moment that Howard Dean wins the nomination. Who
would be his most interesting choice for running mate? (Note: Reality
need not impinge on this decision, although we should perhaps limit
ourselves to living, non-fictitious human American citizens.) John
McCain? He's a straight talkin' kinda guy and he's got the military
hero vote sewn up. Ross Perot? He's a straight-talkin' kinda guy and
he's got the vague and confused vote sewn up. Also, he's shorter than
Dean. Al Franken? I've been reading Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell
Them and he's got my vote. Martin Sheen?...

and won the game, I'd love some tips/pointers. I have played that
final boss battle over and over again, and every time I get beat down
when he enters his second form. I simply can't keep my characters
alive and take out the towers and damage Jecht all at the same time.
What am I missing?
