30. Without knowing where exactly the .mp3 came from...
Edited on Sun Jul-11-04 06:37 PM by TryingToWarnYou
Its hard to determine its pedigree and its an easy task to string together two separate comments to make it sound like something else.

Check out the above link.

And this one too.

If you listen to the recording, its exactly the same wording with "in Vietnam" inserted in a different place. The fact that nobody here seems to be able to come up with the actual source leads me to believe that this recording was manipulated.

The text: " We learned some very important lessons in Vietnam. Perhaps the most important lesson that I learned is that you cannot fight a guerrilla war with conventional forces. That's why I've explained to the American people that we're engaged in a different type of war; one obviously that will use conventional forces, but one in which we've got to fight on all fronts."
