Everything you said is true, the atrocities that was committed by U.S troops. The lesson here to be learn is that South Vietnamese should have never relied on mercenary and auxiliary forces to fight for them.The prince must not depend on mercenary. A mercenary is soldier that you hire and paid salary to and fight for you. Auxiliaries are when you make agreement with neighboring state that they will provide truce to help you in your fight. According to Machiavelli: " mercenary are both useless..anyone rely on mercenary will never be safe or secure..they run away from your enemy and attract to your ally… and once your pay is not enough they will walk away if not run." " Auxiliary are the other source of useless too…they can be useful in good time, when fighting on their behave or interest but not reliable when in someone else's interest.." Not only that's as history has shown, they can turn around and oppress you or they simply won't leave. South Vietnamese should have never replied on foreign troops--ever--thus they turn around and loot or rape the people they supposedly fighting for. North Vietnamese on the other hand never relied on auxiliaries forces, it was majority composed of native Vietnamese troops, hardcore, dedicated, nationalistic fighters. North Vietnam was offered by China some troops for the war effort but they were never allowed to enter into the country. So the lesson here is to your native troops and slaughter/massacre/ or simply reject auxiliaries and mercenary.
And "I'm surprised you Vietnamese still see the US as friends" I am not surprised at all, today's enemy can be tomorrow's ally and etc.. That is simply human's nature, they are brought to cooperate based on interest. Today's interest is to contain Chinese expansion.
Now, young man, you claimed to be a revolutionary, what establishment or social order are you fighting against? And you do know that in revolution, one either triumph or die, are you sure you ready for such a career path?
I am fighting against every wrong that has been done to our race. Every wrong that has ever occurred to us in the past, in the present, and in the future. I am prepared to take my revolution all the way and I will unite Asia together even if I die trying. The world is a phoenix, and from the ashes, we, the greatest race on Earth, will triumph over the broken ashes of our enemies. We will put away our petty differences aside and unite the world to make it a better place for the next generation.
We will fight against the colonial enemies that have threatened to colonize the entire expanse of Asia, we will fight America, and we will fight Europe. I will ask the free peoples of Africa and the Arabic world to join us on this revolution. It is time to silence the Causcasoids of the Earth and shatter their will forever. Then, my allies will unite into 1 nation that will live on forever. It may not happen in my lifetime, but I hope I live long enough to see it. We must act now before it is too late. I am young and I am radical. I am Hmong and I am bold. But I will be the one to deliver us all into the new age of our race.
I ask you, dear sir, when the time comes for me to rise and the world sees my face, will you join me?
