you're complaining that we funded Ho Chi Minh, complaining that we DIDNT support Ho Chi Minh, and arguing for the United States to have conquered and occupied all of Europe - all in the same thread. your lunacy is staggering in scope.

quote:not really. If we destroy the Soviets then it doesn’t matter who we support in Vietnam. Or China. There is then only one super power, U.S.. but if we are going to go down the path we chose then we should’ve been more strategic in who we support around the globe, and what promises we make. It’s not good to lie to leaders of other countries no matter how small, unless you know for sure you have them in check mate.

We gave the French a hell of a lot more than we ever gave Ho Chi Minh

Did I say otherwise?

You can loosely say we "funded" both, but that's not the whole picture.

I agree. I'm not sure exactly if you're disagreeing with something I said on this thread or not. We supported Ho against the Japanese, then we supported France against Ho after China fell to communism because we believed that the communists were all under the control of Moscow (a belief which turned out to be wrong).

Our support to Ho was a drop in the bucket. By the end, the French were wearing US gear, and carrying American weapons. We gave them a carrier, complete with air group.
ETA. Not disagreeing, but it's a distortion to just say "we supported both", without explanation.
We gave Ho a peck on the cheek, we were in bed with the French.

Yeah I definitely agree with that. There's no doubt that we went all in with the French. Ho was just one of many in the fight against Japan.
