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?...

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?...

If there is anybody out there who has actually beaten Jecht in FFX 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?
