I guess if killing 1million+ Vietnamese is something a "paper tiger" does sure the US is a "paper tiger."

Yes. This isn't call of duty where the goal is to kill as many people as possible. The US got its ass kicked.

Yes I get it. The US lost the Vietnam war. The issue is that a "paper tiger" doesn't kill 1million+ people. Losing a war doesn't mean you are a paper tiger.

Is Hamas also a paper tiger? Russia? Israel?

Quit coping, you're clearly in the wrong here.

I'd say that the vietnamese soldier who made the claim and almost certainly was killed by the "paper tiger" was wrong.

Jesus Christ, listen to yourself.
