1946.

The First Indochina War (also called the French Indochina War, the French War or
the Franco-Vietnamese War) was fought in Indochina between 1946 and 1954 between
the imperial forces of the French Republic and the H? Ch� Minh-led Vi?t Minh

I didn't say "look it up and reiterate what you read", you dumbfuck.
I said that YOU didn't know it, and I still contend that you didn't
know it until you looked it up.

At least you were able to cut and paste it correctly.
Good job, ditz boy.

That guy, according to news reports, was making unwanted messes.

And it will take time for those regular people to figure out
that a side effect of "Islam winning" will cause them to
lose technology produced by Western civilization.

I wouldn't call that consideration [risk too great] as thinking
of the weapons as useless.

You had better study the kind of not-thinking because my latest
estimate is that 95% of humans are unable to stop this particular
kind of not-thinking. However, I'm now looking at that percentage
and trying to figure out if this is true with all humans or a
particular aspect of Western Civilization thinking. But I'm not
sure how to find, and then look, at other kinds of thinking in
a non-Western context that occured in the past.

If you don't know what I meant, I can't do a rewrite; that's my
best for this one ;-).
