While it is tempting to only use tried and true methods in war it can potentially leave you unprepared for new developments, forcing you to scramble to catch up. Or, even worse, you could lose the war because you were ill-suited to fight it. While it can be very difficult, it is often advantageous to try and predict and adapt for each new conflict before entering it. Sometimes in war doing things the old-fashioned way can be useful, but, generally, it pays to be innovative. Remember the lessons of the past, but don't let them blind you to the lessons of the present and the future.

Glad to see another upload!

In return, Bremer's strategy was copying the successful de-Nazification process in post-war Germany. It was the de-Baathification of Iraq. Saddam's government and Army were filled with Sunnis who for decades oppressed the majority Shias. Regardless of whether Paul Bremer disbanded the Iraqi Army or not, a sectarian civil war would have broken out regardless. Keeping them on was like keeping the SS on in Germany to keep the orders. It would not have flown with anyone.

@maciekGTR

What? this is literally a perfect example of a radically pro-us, anti-left, biased piece of american propaganda. How can you say that, for example, buying into the narrative about "liberating" opressed peoples in the middle east and giving them democracy is a measured, unbiased and a realpolitik-based view? I mean, even if this were to be true, why isn't the US military destroying Arabia like right now to "liberate" Arabs from Saudi dictatorship? This video paints the US and their interventions in a very distorted light and doesn't mention even in one word how the Americans absolutely destroyed every single country they invaded and flattened everything. To give an example (via wikipedia which is biased towards the US, so you can't say that i use anti-american sources): "A total of 635,000 tons of bombs were dropped on Korea. By comparison, the U.S. dropped 2.1 million tons during all of World War II. North Korea ranks alongside Cambodia (500,000 tons), Laos (2 million tons), and North Vietnam (4 million tons) as among the most heavily-bombed countries in history. The truth about US foreign wars is that they were waged with contempt and disregard for humanity, and they only served the financial interests of their elites. This video only serves to distort this view and paint one of the most brutal wars in our recent history as mere interventions that had to be made in order to save opressed people.

One of the main and big mistakes that the US did when invading Vietnam, was not studying at all everything that the French did wrong in the Indochina war, or at least barely. If they had thoroughly studied the errors and losses the French made, then they could have formulated a better plan and would have had a better chance at winning the war.

That's the point. USA was just a continuation of French Colonial Occupation. USA always doomed to fail just like the French because the Vietnamese were fighting a war of Liberation/Independence. There was no North/South Vietnam only Vietnam and Communism was never a real reason for USA's invasion (See Pentagon Papers). The Vietnamese has been fighting for Independence for 150 years and were willing to fight to the last soul. USA just wanted another subordinate gov that would let USA dictate it's economic/trade policy.
