"I have very mixed emotions,
I strongly support the Vietnamese now living in the USA,
I despise our craven abandonment of the hill people, the RVN forces & their people,
I loathe Henry Kissinger,
I do NOT loathe Vietnam although many of us paid a price for its loss.
But;
I know from experience at the time all those things took place that there is more to any agreement than is announced,
and that there may be more truth in our enemies' statements than is apparent.

Maybe, just maybe, this kind of cooperation will lead to betterment for the masses and for the families of those with new lives in the USA.
(Very close to where I live in many cases)

Maybe it will provide us with a beach head in SEA if ever needed,
Maybe not.

Mixed emotions."

I agree completely with your statements, Norton. Of the populace of Viet Nam, only two per cent are Communists, all the rest of them want to leave. The Commies don't want to leave, they're too busy sucking the lifeblood out of the remaining 98 per cent. This was related to me as pillow talk by my girlfriend in Saigon several years ago. I believe she's right. With watchers on every block, it's not a fun place to live.

"..FREEDOM is also on it way back to Vietnam.."

Before you continue to make such statements, I'd suggest you bring up on-line, "Vietnam Today," their counterpart to usa today (small letters intentional). "VN Today" (a Commie rag, of course), doesn't read like a government organ desirous of peace or freedom.
