How about during Vietnam where we betrayed the French and let women and children get slaughtered by savage communist at the battle of Dien Bien Phu? I bet you’re too young to remember that, so I will tell you about it. The NVA brought up mortars and heavy artillery and shelled the French city which had civilians in it. The city was completely surrounded by the communist forces. Now, the French flew in paratroopers and fought valiantly, but they were still vastly outnumbered and outgunned so they pleaded for our help. We even wrote up a plan to use tactical nuclear weapons, but we could not get Great Britain’s support so we didn’t follow through. We still had bombers and transports just a few miles away that had more than enough space to airlift the women and children off the battlefield. Heck, the commies even pulled back for a while, presumably to let us evacuate the civilians; some of the NVA went AWOL to get f—ked at a brothel some miles away. We had the opportunity to save French civilians, these innocent noncombatants, but we didn’t. While this was happening, Lyndon B. Johnson said, and I quote: “f**k the frogs.” The savage commies overwhelmed the French army and went in raped, pillaged, and murdered throughout the city.
EDIT: Damn. It was LBJ, not FDR...
I dont know what I was thinking.
EDIT 2: Sorry about the foul language.
