You don't know much about Viet Nam either, apparently.
Yeah. I do. My brother and my cousin fought there. We never lost a major battle to either the VC or the Army of the North. We lost engagement and of course patrols were ambushed but major battles? I think not.
Walter Cronkite went to Viet Nam to see for himself what the situation was. The Tet Offensive was a smashing success. It was one of the most brilliantly fought battles of the entire war with an astounding American victory. Cronkite lied about it. He came back and said that we were losing and more than that, there was no way to win. The left pounced on that lie repeating it over and over.
General Giap had already made the decision to surrender. After Cronkite's lie, there were more anti war demonstrations. Giap changed his mind. If he could just hold out, the American left would win the war for him. That's exactly what happened.
