It is said that generals fight the last war. It appears that better describes the news media. Ever since the start of the war, references to Vietnam and quagmire have abounded. Although the parallels have always be few and sparse, the capture of Saddam Hussein blows them right out of the water. If this is like Vietnam, then, as one person said, capturing Saddam is as if we had captured Ho Chi Min.
The Vietnam analogy has been refuted.
