If anyone is guilty of Giap "hero worship" is the people who are spreading the fake Giap quote. It is they, not me, who "sneered" at your colonel in doing so. They showed their contempt for him by spreading a fake quote from Giap when they could have used a genuine one from the colonel.

The fact that the summary of the truth has been encapsulated in an inaccurate quote is not unusual, it happens in regards to history, it should always be corrected.

You went much farther than that, you seem to want to go after America, and push the Communist view, I am very used to you guys, I remember you well from the draft dodgers, the “peace” movement coffee houses, even the VVAW itself.

As a military Captain, you must have an interesting military background, yet you post like a nonveteran lefty, what happened?
