SMH......U can always tell who wasnt paying attention in history class.....Ever heard of Guerilla Warfare? Many wars have been won using this tactic. America is still licking its wounds from Vietnam. America had all that man power yet we pulled out that small country cuz the guerillas were to much. U do remember Nat turner right? he had an army he just wasnt succesful with the revolution.
We'll never know about America but Toussaint Louverture was a great example of Black folks coming together to put a foot in the whitemans ass for independence. In the book Roots, Toussaint is Kunta Kinte's hero for a reason. Ever notice how in America we are taught that Napoleaon was this great white leader but they never speak on how his troops got they assses handed to them in the Haitian revolution?
It's wonderful that you love your people and our history, but its dangerous to romanticize about yesteryear when coming up with tactics for today...
You need to go back and do your due diligence about the Vietnam war..
First, one major advantage was that the war was fought on Vietnam's home turf...Knowing the geography to perfection gave them a huge advantage in ground tactics
Second, Russia was huge help financially and provided the Viet-Kong with bookoo weapons including tanks and ground to air missiles
Third, the U.S was fighting the war with one hand tied behind its back because of all of the political, social, and civil opposition against the war that was going on in the states....
It literally prevented or forced the upper brass in Washington to not use the full extent of the military. It truly was a Media/Political war and the U.S. military was used probably at 50% of its full potential...
shyt's disgusting actually. Many lives were sacrificed for the sake of politics..
If Vietnam had something the U.S. wanted like oil, or some type of precious mineral/resource, the war would have been over in 18 months and SE Asia would be a full-fledged democracy right now.....
