        Vietnam didn’t have a massive effect on global trade that affects every economy on earth. The longer it goes on, the more major players will want to bring it to a swifter conclusion. It won’t be a multi decade slog between a handful of countries, but a Great War that drags dozens of nations into it. It’s a mini World War, not a forever war like Afghanistan. It’ll only turn into another Vietnam if America tries to nation build, and I think America giving up and going home with Iran in shambles is far more likely.
