The Viet Cong Strategy Against the United States Military

The Viet Cong Strategy Against the United States Military Photo by  Annie Spratt  on  Unsplash The Viet Cong had a well developed strategy which the world would see employed in the decades after the Viet Nam war in every major conflict. The Vietnamese had a long standing history of the French occupying Vietnam since the mid 1800s which helped the Vietnamese to get an understanding of guerrilla tactics which would become the key to beating the US in the 1960s. The Vietnamese honed their skills and developed their strategies and tactics over the decades prior to the Vietnam war against the French, culminating in the French defeat to the Viet Minh’s during the siege of Din Bin Phu. Din Bin Phu had been surrounded by the Viet Minh and it was attacked perpetually until the French finally surrendered. It was at Din Bin Phu that the Vietnamese had learned how they could take their small scale guerrilla forces and mass them up to perform a large operational group to strike at a s...

What was really the historical cause of the war between Israel and Palestine?

 What was really the historical cause of the war between Israel and Palestine? Photo by  Fernández Salas | Unsplash The conflict started over 2000 years ago when the Romans invaded the Middle East and started enforcing their style of law on the people. It roots back to the days when Jesus was killed as the New Testament states that the Jews were chanting for the crucifixion of Jesus and the Romans were interested in keeping control but also of snuffing out some of the religious problems they were having as Jews advocated one God, and it caused a great deal of problems for the Roman religious system. After the death of Jesus, the Romans were in conflict with the Jewish people for another 150 years when they finally broke the resistance and disbanded the Jews, casting them out from the territory. It was this dispersion of people that would serve as a bit an anomaly in the typical conquered people’s history, as usually the people get absorbed into the other people that conquer be...

Why was the Fender Rose Wood Telecaster the only guitar George Harrison hated?

 Why was the Fender Rose Wood Telecaster the only guitar George Harrison hated? This indeed seems to be a question which has some irony built into it. George Harrison was given a Fender Rose Wood Telecaster in 1967 as a gift by Fender. His guitar would become iconic as it would make it’s way into the ‘Let it be’ video as well as it was used for their last public performance. So iconic is that guitar, that Fender decided to do a George Harrison Tele release and my good God is it a gorgeous guitar, yet; George only kept it for around a year as he would give it away in 1969. Ultimately the reason why he gave it away was because of the weight of the guitar. Being a solid body the guitar weighed a ton and he found it too much weight on the straps for it to be comfortable. The person that George gave the guitar to would hold onto it until 2 years after George’s death. His widow would buy the guitar for under a half million. Still, despite George only owning the guitar for a year it made ...

What are the potential drawbacks of nationalizing an industry?

 What are the potential drawbacks of nationalizing an industry? It depends on what industry and what the purpose of nationalizing it is. The industries that it makes the most sense to nationalize have some criteria in my opinion: They should be static industries that do not change very much or very quickly in terms of the core of it’s business. It should be an industry that is key to public security, public safety, or the public’s interest. It should be something that is mammoth in size so that it doesn’t affect any small businesses by having it nationalized. It should add value by nationalizing it - such as continuity, consistency, stability etc. There should be a pain point that is needing to be addressed that centralizing that industry under the government addresses it. It should be specialized enough that there is not a lot of competition. It wouldn’t be small business or medium businesses getting put out of business - it should be an industry where it would be cost prohibitive...
