Mr. Kerry announcedthat Washington would provide $18 million in assistance, including five unarmed patrol boats for the Vietnamese Coast Guard.
See, American tax payers' money to a communist country that killed thousands of your soldiers, and beat you in war, humiliating America.
You can't even claim they aren't communist any more.
We beat ourselves, but your post just seems to be a snotty rendition of random facts, can you give me a clearer argument?
You asked for evidence of US taxpayers' money being given to Vietnam.
I both gave you reliable evidence, and added more to show how post Vietnam war US governments have left your Vietnam vets to rot.
Surely that's enough to suggest my argument is valid.
In fact, ALL US wars and US enemies since 1945 have been created by the US, including North Korea.
NK was never a threat to America until America joined in a war in that country, all in support of a vicious dictator in the south, but one you thought you could control.
Should you hit NK with anything? No.
In fact, The US of A should admit its error, pay war reparations to the North as compensation for the war you got involved in, and apologise, both to NK and your vets who were killed in that stupid, pointless war (Same goes for the UK and other involved nations).
When I suggest the war was pointless, see Vietnam. You got kick out of their country, but the stated reasons for the war proved to be total crap.
The communists took over the country, but there was world domination by commies, and you ended up as mates with them, sending them fat sacks of your tax dollars in a final humiliation.
Pretty much the same would have happened in Korea, if America (and various other countries) hadn't been so stupid.
Communism is as pathetic as it is unworkable, and the communists end up realising that little detail.
China is now the biggest economy on the planet, running a terrific capitalist system, and Vietnam is rapidly changing as well.
NK is still there, and still acting like silly bastards because of US ******* about. If you left it alone, their daft government would be knackered within a couple of years.
