American imperialism was defeated by THAT?

>Support from the population
That was a bit of a false statement, a lot of the Vietcong were southern communists who went north after the French split then went back for the war. They were pretty brutal to the local S.Vietnamese.

I suppose the locals just realized the Americans would eventually go home the Vietcong wouldn't.

Don't forget the hella sick tunnels

Hmmm yes he was a they had.....

>Unable to gain a foothold in North Vietnam. Student North Vietnamese MiG pilots were sent to China and the Soviet Union for up to three years for training. Student North Vietnamese SAM operators were sent to the USSR for about six to nine months of training.[4][5] Soviet and Chinese Communist pilots were restricted to test flying MiGs which had been exported to North Vietnam from their countries.[6][7] Due to the urgency brought on by Operation Rolling Thunder, and until North Vietnamese missilemen could be trained, Soviet PVO SAM Anti-Aircraft Missile operator/instructors were quickly deployed to North Vietnam in 1965, and through 1966 were responsible for downing approximately 48 US aircraft during the course of defending North Vietnam.[8][9] There is one reported ace pilot from the USSR nevertheless, Col. Vadim Shcherbakov who is credited with 6 air-to-air kills.[10]

Kill-death ratio is meaningless because the Americans didn't commit to decisive strategic initiatives like cutting off the Ho Chi Minh trail or opposing the mass presence of Chinese troops in the North which freed up combat positions.

>KDR is meaningless
>TF
>TP
You guys love bragging about the 2SJW and your epic 10:1 KDR

Yup. America can't win a war against rice farmers even by killing everybody they see. They carry this failure forward today in Afghanistan. Even when they "win" they hand it over to their enemies, like in Iraq.

Pure Jomon.

I did not say anything about that war, and that ratio is nothing to brag about in any righteous way. Don't conflate the words of "netouyo" with majority opinion. Most Japanese people are not millitarist.

Many of Vietcongs were pissed off farmers that were somehow bullied by American troops or ARVN.
I even doubt if Communism was the first thing in their minds.

Americans be like:

>ARVN
My ancestor :)

Funny thing is there a Russian hidden in the Americans, can you find it? :)

This is some Trump retard level ""'understanding""" right here.

The ones in power were all communists, the local leaders were communist regroupees and the majority weren't random SV farmers. If they were the tet offensive wouldn't have been a massive failure and 2 million peasants wouldn't have later become boat people. The VC were often more brutal and used intimidation on the South Vietnamese.

>Parallel with this however, was an unmistakable track of coercion and intimidation.[90] Villagers in a "liberated area" had little choice but to shelter, feed and finance the Revolutionary Forces, and were forced to expand the "liberated zone" by supplying manpower for constructing and maintaining supply dumps, fortifications, tunnels, and manufacturing facilities.

>VC "Armed Propaganda" squads conducted a systematic campaign of assassination and kidnapping to eliminate competitors, intimidate the populace and disrupt or destroy normal social, political and economic life. These two tracks: popular support, and coercion/intimidation, were to run on together for a good part of the War.[90]

the NVA was getting supplied by the Soviets and Chinese and the US cut off all funding for ARVN so of course they lost

imperialism doesn't just mean colonizing it also means the domination and exploitation of foreign markets

No it was defeated by North Vietnam violating the Paris Peace Accords and the coward Gerald Ford not nuking Hanoi over it

Yes true, but it always felt fore me that the HCM's cause was more Nationalistic than Communist, only after Le Duan took control its spiralled into gommunism.

American education
South Viets here. South Viet (with exception of Saigon) dont like South Viet government and military.
Whenever they (the military) visit the village they pillage the hell out of it in the name of helping people fighting vietcongs.
The south gov basically a swamp of corruption.
As for American, they are barbaric and brutal even more than thr French which at least contribute a lot to Southern area developement.
It is no suprises and that America and South VN will lose, eventhough the lost was heavy, so what?
People dont like you they want you away even if they killing themselves by fighting super power they just dont want you here.
