Giap said nothing about Kerry, you liar. And another thing, Giap won the war long before Kerry ever uttered a single word against the war. It just took another four years to officially end it, which was Nixon's fault for dragging it out long after it was hopeless. The North Vietnamese had effectively won the war by about 1969, despite heroic efforts by our troops and more ordnance poured onto Vietnam by the US than in all of WWII. The reason Giap won was the same reason Bush lost in Iraq and the Soviets lost in Afghanistan, mainly the fact that the entire war was based on a series of BIG LIES to begin with, we really had no business being there in the first place, it was a hostile alien environment, the US troops realized it was totally FUBAR and like in Iraq we usually had no idea who we were fighting and who was a friend or foe. Also, the Vietnamese weren't going anyplace. No matter how many we killed, others would still be there. So it was just carnage without purpose or end. And we totally lost their hearts and minds as well as backing a corrupt South Vietnamese regime which the public did not like or support. Stop you insidious lying. It's evil and un-American.
