A round from a Garand M-1 travels at 3000 feet per second. You can shoot perhaps 10 of them in 3 seconds. It is very difficult in that time, at that speed to differentiate the politics, culture and deservedness of the person hiding in the jungle. If he waves a white flag, so be it, if not then he gets it. There is no way to say some wars are nice, and some are not nice. If a commie found you outside a village hiding out, he would machinegun you too. If you want to step back and say all cultural factions in all countries, home grown so to speak are hand off, well good. But are they? Was Ho completely a product of a mass movement towards socialism in Vietnam? I think not. You seem to think or say that hordes of people would have embraced the communists with open arms if the US or fr. had not stepped in. And that the Soviets and Chinese spectre were not active in developing the "popular groundswell" It seems to me that millions in the south fought hard to keep the north from winning. They were not jumping on helicopter in Saigon for nothing when the north broke through. Man of the people, Ho? Communism an ideal if home grown? Not over my dead body it ain't. I ahve had enough of our communists, the NDP and the liberals. And enough of our right wing too. Deliver me from socialismo theives of SA --OR -- right wing death squads thank you very much.
