Canada doesn't have nuclear weapons due to our own internal laws. Nothing to do with the US, and at the time when Canada decided not to house nuclear weapons in Canada, the United States was not too pleased.

>br/>Last time a war involving the US had a clear victor was World War 2. So if that is what you get out of your history books, you have bigger issues to deal with.

North Vietnam didn't exist until they managed to liberate the North of their countries from French rule in the First Indochina War.

The Viet Minh were allies with the Americans and the Nationalist Republic of China in the war against Japan. When their country was going to be forcefully reoccupied by France after the war, they turned their attention to keep the French out of it.

There was no "South Vietnam" to invade, there was just a French Puppet government.

That is a win, for people who have been opressed for centuries by the Arabs and Turkish.

Bush did the right thing by giving the Kurds a bit of space to be comfortable in without the centuries of prosecution following them.

And you also evacuated your Army that was stationed in France to protect them from the Nazi invasion that was coming without actually even attempting to defend France.

A evacuation which would have resulted in annihilation of the British Army in Europe had the French Army not hold a defensive line until the evacuation could be completed against the Germans.

Kinda like how Syngman Rhee was installed into power by the Americans? Who ended up killing a few hundred thousand Koreans before the Korean War broke out to solidify his power base as well?

Close, the USSR wanted the PRC as the legitimate government, mainly for the extra pro-communist seat in the UN Security Council and if you have enough nuclear weapons to throw around, people tend to listen to you.

Stalin agreed to help the Americans defeat the Japanese within 3 months of Germany's surrender/occupation at the Yalta Conference.

No instead, Russia had started to amass a large force of over 1.5 million men, over 5,500 tanks, and over 5,000 aircraft at it's borders, and in seven days, managed to push well into the Northern part of the Korean Peninsula, taking most of Japanese controlled Manchuria in the process before the surrender of Japan just a short week later.

No, the delay between the bombings of Hiroshima on August 6th and Nagasaki on August 9th, and the Emperor's surrender on August 15th, had little to do with the bombs, and more to do with the fact that other then the Mainland, they had nothing left to fight over.

A little knowledge of history would help before you keep posting useless information.

The Boston Tea Party was about taxes, but it was about the Crown lowering taxes on commercial tea so much that it became cheaper then the tax free black market tea.

The Boston Tea Party was only about keeping the profit margins of the smugglers, who perpetrated it. The fact that Americans still think it's about the Crown's taxes onto the colonies being too much to bare, shows how much Americans don't even know their own history.

Who said anything about supporting the Republican Party.

But you have to call both the pot and kettle black.

Like Libya was avoided? Give us a break.

Lenovo branded laptops are the consumer line. The Thinkpads are still the business line and built quite well regardless of the changes that they have done to them. I say this as a constant ThinkPad user since the 600E.

You must have not had any friends.

Prime Ministers are not the head of state in any country. Hence why they are still in a "ministerial role".

No, ShanghaiBill was correct that the current US Speaker would be equivalent to a apology from a Prime Minister. As that is the role most Prime Ministers have. The head of State being the King/Queen/Emperor or in some cases a separate President for countries that abolished their Monarchies.
