"During the Vietnam War, as Viet Cong soldiers tried to sleep in the jungle at night, they sometimes heard an anguished, disembodied voice shrieking at them from the afterlife. The men heard the tormented, grief-stricken cries of a deceased comrade cautioning them against the futility of losing their lives in combat, beseeching them to put down their weapons and return home. "My body is gone. I am dead, my family. Tragic, how tragic! My friends, I come back to let you know that I am dead. I am dead. I am in hell. … Friends, while you are still alive … go home! … Go home, my friends—before it is too late."…"

Maybe we could have won if the voices had simply screamed the truth… "Your grandchildren will be working in government sanctioned sweatshops for foreign companies while your leaders meet with Americans to cooperate on defense against China!" Seriously, Vietnamese would have been much better off if the VC had just surrendered, pointed over at South Korea and said "Screw all this, let's just do what they do." |
