You may want to check who the bad guys were in Nam, I'll give you a clue, Charlie, and the NVA, which they would be considered today as al qaeda. Innocents killed in Nam, yep, on purpose, nope. Please give us an example of any war ever fought that innocent life wasn't lost.

I make the "same excuses for al qaeda too"?
I make no excuses for anyone. You are the one making excuses, because extremist nationalism turns people into cowards.
And obviously we killed plenty of innocents in vietnam on purpose.

The only thing you would ever know about Vietnam is what you have read, and I would venture to say you weren't even born then. First, just so you know, American soldiers in Vietnam, and Iraq never purposely target civilians. Our missions have been noble trying to help those that can't help themselves, and American soldiers are noble and do very noble things because we are Americans. America is the most benevolent nation on this earth, or has ever been on this earth. We have our faults, but our greatness outweighs the inequities by a long shot.
Other than a few isolated incidences that have occurred in Vietnam, Iraq, or any other war for that matter, is just that, isolated. So put yourself back in your goofy liberal box, the box that finds nothing but fault in America, because the vast majority of Americans love our nation. If you find nationalism to be a bad thing, then I'd suggest you move the fu*k out of here and find a place where you would be more happy, like a deserted island. Because that is the only place on this planet where you could squarely place blame on it's inhabitants, and that would be just you.
BTW; Merry Christmas from a proud American
