Ashley advances the following argument: "The war in Afghanistan is beginning to look a lot like the war in Vietnam
The U.S. is fighting a guerilla insurgency that has widespread popular support, it is often impossible to tell enemies from friends, and the enemy can melt away into the villages and countryside after attacking our troops. It is likely, therefore, that we will end up losing in Afghanistan just as we did in Vietnam." During Ashley's question-and-answer period, Khadijah objects, saying that while our opponents in Vietnam adhered to a single political ideology, our adversaries in Afghanistan often fight among themselves because of important ideological differences. She also points out that the Viet Cong were supported by outside agents—the USSR and Communist China—while al-Qaeda does not have such outside sponsors. Khadijah is objecting to Ashley's use of comparison. Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
