Our public forcing the withdrawal of troops was the battle that the NVA won. That's literally exactly what they wanted the TET Offensive to lead to. We completely obliterated the NVA during the TET offensive, but by allowing the TET Offensive to occur we lost the war, not militarily, but socially. That is still losing. It was their strategy and their strategy worked brilliantly. That's why the TET Offensive is hilarious and ironic, to this day we claim we won. I laugh out loud at the thought. The "myth" died in Vietnam statement is absolute proof of their success in said propoganda, it was so effective that even today when it is clear that we completely dominated the NVA in every battle fought in the war, including the TET Offensive, that people believe our military superiority was proven questionable at that time. In reality you would think the Korean War would be a better demonstration of how we aren't invincible when you consider that even the Marines (while they escaped nobly, literally taking ALL their dead and injured and even taking abandoned US Army equipment so the enemy couldn't get it) had to run.

I am a left wing political activist, but Im in the army (dichotomy? lol) And both militarily and journalistically that article is greatly false. Disagreeing with evidence and putting it down to "media bias" is no way to argue. I could say that the idea that London is the capital of the U.K is false and down to "Media bias"; that does not make it false in reality.

well, their guerilla tactics are cowardice. 
That's how the Revolutionary War was won.
