NO, you are wrong on this. The Vietnamese (many of them) wanted their own country, free of world power domination.

Sounds the Colonies against the British Empire, doesn’t it.

IOW, Vietnam wanted Vietnam, without the French, the British, the US, or Russia, or China being their overlords, and, they were willing to fight in the trenches for it.

I salute the Vietnamese spirit.

A war fought for the benefit of the MIC, and those “experts” who blindly assigned “The Domino Theory” to Vietnam.

You’re repeating a well worn myth. The North Vietnamese government was not fighting against “world power domination”. They were doctrinaire communists. The South Vietnamese people were overwhelmingly against the communists.
