It is amazing, and one more sign of how wrong we were. And the fallout from Agent Orange and landmines is not even close to being over. The heartbreak of what we did to Vietnam cannot be repaired, and should not be forgotten, no matter how impressive their achievements since.

And we're not even measuring what we did in Iraq, which also contributed greatly to the destabilization of Syria. We set the Mideast on fire, and for nothing. I fear that what Putin has done in Ukraine will be similarly longterm and broad.

Sure. We're paying for them. Do you think our arms manufacturers care who foots the bill?
