    The paper tiger is beginning to shred. Hopefully.

      The US has a lot of criticism that can be leveled at it, but “paper tiger” certainly isn’t one.

        Literally the Vietnamese called the US a paper tiger and then kicked the US’ ass.

          If what the US did to Vietnam and Cambodia over 20+ years is a “paper tiger” then uh, I don’t think a real tiger exists.

            Do genocide and fail at winning wars against relatively small impoverished nations?

              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.
