Looks the same to me...
What looks the same to me is your ignorance on yet another subject.

"President John F. Kennedy rounded another turning point in early 1961, when he secretly sent 400 Special Operations Forces-trained (Green Beret) soldiers to teach the South Vietnamese how to fight what was called counterinsurgency war against Communist guerrillas in South Vietnam. When Kennedy was assassinated in November 1963, there were more than 16,000 U.S. military advisers in South Vietnam, and more than 100 Americans had been killed"

Perhaps this might help you;

And the Berlin Wall.....you surely can't credit the US in either putting it up or pulling it down - what next, gonna say an American discovered Europe?

This shows how out of whack with reality you are.

Priceless


LOL
