The jew media claims we fought communism in vietnam, but in fact the grievances of the Viet Minh go back to the Japanese occupation of ww2.
The French colonized indochina in the early 20th century. Things went okayish, until they disarmed the population and then turned tail and ran as soon as they heard the Japanese were invading during ww2. The Vietnamese were absolutely brutalized by the Japanese and thousands were brutally killed and starved because the French pulled their military out like the cowards they were.
After the war, Instead of letting them rebuild under self-determination, Vietnam was returned to the French by military force by the united states, crushing the guerilla Vietnamese forces that had stood against the Japanese. One can fully understand why they were upset that the cowards who disarmed them and abandoned them were once again appointed as their rulers as their bravest men were killed by the so called "freedom fighting" Americans.
The whole communism thing was more spawned out of hatred for the Japanese and disillusionment with the west with a long history of violence than any type of politics. Had there been another willing benefactor with equal or greater resources seeking to give them aid to be free from the French and Americans, they would have accepted any help.
This fundamental misunderstanding of the war cost hundreds of thousands of lives. American men were never fighting communism, they were fighting the memory of Japanese and French occupation and the will to be free. That war could never be won unless they went scorched earth and declared total war to the death.
To this day, nobody is really aware of the real reasons and facts behind why Ho Chi Minh raised his army to fight the west
You don't have to take my word for it though, you can listen to him yourself. They'll never show this in school

The false flag August 1964 Gulf of Tonkin Incident led the US into the Vietnam War, not to mention the false flag floating restaurant bombings that led to massive escalation. Thus the Vietnam war was as choreographed as WW1 & WW2, the American Civil War and the campaigns of Napoleon Bonaparte and Oliver Cromwell, history records Zionists started those conflicts to serve their own ends. Zionist atrocity perped against the Palestinian, Egyptian and Lebanese people at the height of the VN war in 1967 & 1968 went unreported, while VN war news hogged the headlines.
Sodd him .. Ho Chi Minh was a willing player in the near elimination of the VC infrastructure in the Southern provinces of Annam and Cochin in the 1968 Tet Offensive, while the Northerners from Tonkin - herinafter the NVA or North Vietnamese Army - refused to deploy the forces they had at their disposal. Who later claimed to have won the war, who only used their main combat tank and infantry units at the end against the ARVN, the Army of the Republic of Vietnam conscripts who were left holding the kitty after the Yankees had Gone Home.
NVA units failed to intercept Australian platoons that sallied forth from Nui Dat from 1965 until 1972, whence the kill ratio of approximately 1,000 "enemy" dead per battalion, meant the three infantry battalions in situ accounted for a total of around 24,000 South Vietnamese dead .. sure he was a traitor!
HMAS Sydney in Vung Tau Harbor
If the NVA had deployed their forces when the Australian battalions were being changed over, and HMAS Sydney was anchored in Vung Tau Harbor like it was up to three times per year for seven yrs, they would have sunk the ship and inflicted thousands of casualties, which would have spelled the end of Australia's commitment to the war .. they never lifted a finger or fired a shot. The Australian base at Nui Dat was overlooked by a jungle covered hill with a number of summits and saddles called Nui Dinh
M16 Antipersonnel Mine
Australia's Defense Minister had in 1967 spurned the advice of a Sandhurst trained Colonel with the Australian Engineers, and allowed some twenty thousand M16 Jumping Jack land mines to be laid across an eleven kilometer swathe, of some of the the best farming and grazing land in Phuoc Tuy province. The mines were laid in daylight by the Australians, allegedly there after to be located and removed by the Viet Cong after nightfall, who allegedly relaid them to cause 57% of Australia's 521 fatalities in Vietnam. The Colonel was removed from his post in Vietnam where after he took his case directly to the Australian Parliament, and was left standing alone in the rain outside of Parliament House in Canberra.
Edit: A soldier from the Australian Engineers who had been flown home from Vietnam under arrest in 1969, asserted Engineers from 1 Australian Task Force at Nui Dat were continuing to lay mines, even after the government had ordered the cessation of mine laying ops, he said those same mines that had been surreptitiously laid by Australians were blowing other Australians to pieces!
