guerilla, the so called dominoes fell because the US invaded their countries as well, for what turned out to be no reason at all. Those countries got so pissed at this new attempt at imperialism from the West, they threw themselves on the (Chinese/Vietnamese) Communists' side.

Only for the USSR, the 'dominoes' became dominant in themselves, and didn't care much for Russian-brand Communism.

Iran learned very well from 'Nam. Notice how they helped the Coalition in Afghanistan by shutting out the Taliban' potential escape there; but have their cronies fight the Coalition in Iraq after Saddam fell. They realize first that it is in their interest to rid themselves of Hussein and Omar as neighbors. They then extended the war because they realized that Bush/Cheyney was looking at a reason to invade Iran from 2003 on. 'Have the brothers fight over there on enemies' turf, as opposed to having the brothers fight on our turf.' Somebody said that, someone famous...
