The Vietnam War myth

[Bear]

In Relative historical reference to another "artificial border line" was the one created in the American Civil War: The Mason Dixon over which 600,000 died in it's defense versus removal aka as
"A House Divided".
Not as radical as twentieth century "cold war" cry of Communist Domino Theory of a political idea morphing into an international threat.
The War between the States was a Revolutionary War against the Federal Government and there was a Civil War current but it was a war between the same people. Not language, religion, alien or foreign alliances to take over and conquer, although the Czar of Russia did send flotillas to New York and San Francisco as a signal to Britain to Not Get Involved. The Brits did run trade through the blockade of South during the war.
A war of reckoning, of settling the rules and laws of one people, indivisible etc.
The North Vietnamese, Stalinists then Maoists then Independents sought to unify their own kind their own people. We westerners think and judge in our jingoist and arrogant view of the world i.e. Pax Britannica but the truth of facts and history can a will be twisted and propagandized by the neo - fascists within the U.S. and Europe. Fascism relies on perpetual fear and "threats" to support the endless preparation for wars and perpetuating them at every opportunity. This feeds the bank accounts of the Military - Industrial - Congressional Combine.

See Iraq? And does anyone think we'll see any international bankers, hedgers or traders goto prison or be shot? If I should disappear from the radar fellas, you'll know why, and I'm not a fraking Banker :smoke:
