About my last image of the North Vietnamese capitol was a grainy picture of John McCain being fished out of a river. That was forty years ago when a lot of American were convinced communists in Vietnam were a great threat to American freedom.
Today there are a lot of hysterics fearful that Islam is the latest great threat. For those folks I offer this short video of Ho Chi Minh today. Let capitalism loose and it will seduce people away from their dogmas and onto our path. That’s a lot cheaper than going to war against them although there is always the worry that they may figure out how to out-compete us.
