The Vietnam syndrome revisited and lessons unlearned
The piece argues the Vietnam War created a lasting aversion to war of choice, then traces later interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq. It cites Powell's doctrine, Reagan era actions, Panama, Kuwait, Kosovo, and Kosovo to show repeated misreadings of Vietnam’s lessons, and warns no lasting guard against future missteps. It emphasizes the need to relearn caution in U.S. military entanglements.
