My grandfather was NVA, and my father and uncles fought Khmer Rogues and they have no problem with Americans. My grandpa loved to talk to my mother about buying Ford trucks and bringing American chocolate home. Myself I was US military for 6 years, all of my family was proud of that. For warriors like my grandpa, fighting is normal amongst men and should never get into the way of the new generation. Only cowards dwell on grudges. Look at the Afghan mujahideens, they say that they were bored now that they don't have Americans to fight anymore.

I would think they’d want to expand trade and economic ties, rather than defense ties. It’s clearly been shown that our economic relationship with China has had greater influence than our military influence. It’s been shown across the World that economic sanctions have a greater negative impact than military posturing.

How chi Minh petitioned the US to let them remain independant after helping drive out the Japanese during WW2 with the help of OSS. He quoted Thomas Jefferson and the declaration of Independence as reasons why the US should protect them from French recolonisation. Truman ignored these pleas and wanted all the post-war political matters handled as fast as possible (including leaving the republic of China to fend for itself against the communists) and allowed France to reclaim indochina as a colony.
Even after declaring themselves a communist power to gain aid from Soviet union, HCM was still open to relations with the US until his death.
Modern day Vietnam is far removed from the communist power that had the worst economy in the world just 30 years ago and today has embraced capitalism and trade, so with improved relations, ho chi minhs dream of American cooperation may finally be coming true.

Are they saying the same thing? I think you know that these are two very different thinkers.
How do you think they’d each finish this sentence? “America provoked China and therefore America should-“
I’d imagine Mearsheimer’s response would be less hostile to American power projection than Chomsky’s, if similarly opposed to how it occurs now.

And mote broadly Capitalism has utterly defeated Communism. Vietnam might nominally be Communist, but check the tags on all your clothes and other household items and you'll see they're working for US corporations now and you'll find plenty of McDonald's and other US brands all over the country.

And people forget that China just unilaterally moved the border of Vietnam and stealing part of Vietnam. This is very sore point with the Vietnamese people and one of the reasons that anything Chinese related is detested in Vietnam.
The Chinese also recently change the baseline map line that runs through the Gulf of Tonkin claiming extensive areas of the Vietnamese exclusive economic zone. The arrogance and disrespect China has for all countries and International law is palpable So currently in Vietnam China is public enemy No1. All Chinas own fault and doing! I am not surprised that the Vietnam is turning to the USA for better leverage.

>How many big battles did the US win vs. Britain in the Revolutionary War?
Is this a serious question? A lot. The American Patriots lit up British Empire forces across the map.
The storming of Fort William and Mary and the Powder Alarm in 1774. The battles of Lexington and Concord, capturing Fort Ticonderoga, the siege of Boston, the battle of Chelsea Creek, the battle of Machias, the capture of the Turtle Bay depot, the battle of Gloucester, the raid on the Manhattan Battery, the siege of Fort St. Jean, the battle of Great Bridge, the Snow Campaign, the battle of Great Cane Break, and the New York Armory raid in 1775. And the battle of Moore's Creek Bridge, the raid of Nassau, the battle of Saint-Pierre in Quebec, the battle of Sullivan's Island, the battle of Gwynn's Island, the battle of Lindley's Fort, the battle of Harlem Heights, the ambush of Geary, and the battle of Trenton in 1776. Then in 1777 the second battle of Trenton, the battle of Princeton, the battle of Millstone, the siege of Fort Stanwix, the battle of Bemis Heights, the battle of Red Bank, and the battle of White Marsh. In 1778 the siege of Boonesborough, the battle of Edgar's Lane, the raids on Unadilla and Onaquaga, and the battle of Kettle Creek. In 1779 the siege of Fort Vincennes, the battle of Chillicothe, the battle of Stony Point, the battle Paulus Hook, the battle of Newtown, the battle of Lake Pontchartrain, and the battle of Baton Rouge.
There's more. Do you want me to list them?

I think you misunderstood China's invasion of Vietnam and might be glorifying Vietnam too much. The Chinese invasion of Vietnam was not about territorial gains but to counter the USSR and Vietnam's ambitions to dominate Southeast Asia.
After the Vietnam-US war, Vietnam had the strongest military in Southeast Asia, and the US had left non-communist countries in the region to defend themselves. Vietnam then invaded Cambodia, causing concern in Thailand and Singapore, which led them to clandestinely support the Khmer Rouge. There were reasonable fears that after Cambodia, Vietnam might target Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore next. Ho Chi Minh's ministers had vocally expressed intentions to spread communism across Southeast Asia.
China, worried about being encircled by the USSR, decided to "teach Vietnam a lesson" by invading, aiming to show that the USSR would not commit militarily to help Vietnam. The PLA pulled back their army after Vietnam started withdrawing their elite forces from Cambodia to counter the Chinese invasion.
To this day, many Southeast Asian leaders from that era feel grateful to Deng Xiaoping. You can read about this in most Southeast Asian leaders' biographies.
Side note: China informed the US before the invasion and the US gave their approval.

You evacuated tens of thousands but left millions behind. Millions who wanted to go to but cant. You are not in any position to consider what is and is not abandonment. As the victims, only we can decide that, and the large number of south vietnamese decided that you indeed abandoned everyone behind. The US is an unreliable ally to us now.
I dont doubt that china is an authoritarian state who treat their citizens like expendable numbers. But as a Vietnamese educated in our communist politics and theirs, and considering historical reasons, unlike the black and white view of reddit, I do believe they will leave us alone as long as we have a government that is friendly to them.
The moment we declare an alliance with the US is the moment they make plans for an invasion.

There seems to be a power struggle going on right now with the new president, and then general secretary is getting really old and will probably retire within a few years, so people are fighting to become his successor.
This is bad because as the new people take charge, they feel like their grip on the population is loosened and will seek to tighten it. I expect to see more authoritarianism in the next 5 years

Yeah, I agree. 300b + all sanctions remain in place is the most reasonable, and a return to pre-2014 borders. DMZ at the border region to boot. A full-on Treaty of Versailles would just repeat history and encourage someone worse than Putin would take power. As much as I'd love to see Putin and his plutocracy disappear, it's a devil-you-know type situation for sure.

Here's the thing we saw in the initial invasion: NATO tech from the end of the Cold War was more than a match for current Russian tech. Hell, the Cold War NATO tech we gave them we nerfed so it wouldn't be as powerful as it could be just to avoid Ukraine striking at targets in Russia. If the Ukrainian forces can eliminate enough of Russia's SAM capacity to put the new fighters into the battle space consistently it will be a major shift in Ukraine's favor in the war. I haven't seen any accurate reporting on what Russia's remaining SAM capacity is.

Or Ukraine could’ve not allowed America to set up facilities and line the borders of Russia/Ukraine with missiles aiming at Russia. This was a breach of the 1994 trilateral agreement between Russia, America, and Ukraine. Russia agreed to leave Ukraine alone only if America stayed out of Ukraine and didnt push eastward. America broke the agreement first not Russia

https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/exclusive-war-began-putin-rejected-ukraine-peace-deal-recommended-by-his-aide-2022-09-14/
Slightly different to the one I remembered, this link is about a deal brought to Putin by one of his aides.
I can't find any link specifically about western countries pre-invasion but I'm sure early in the war I remember hearing about diplomatic efforts before the invasion that touched on neutrality. If I find a link on that too I'll update this comment.
In addition, more details about the deal you're referring to were released fairly recently, a different proposal during the invasion, and it involved Ukraine's army being limited to 85,000 soldiers, 340 tanks, and limiting missile range to 40km, which would have made the rest of the country defenceless. I believe first reported by the wall street journal but since quoted elsewhere. THIS proposal is where that claim comes from about Ukraine being supposedly forced to reject a "peace deal".

NATO already quite clearly stated that if nuclear weapons are used, they would respond with conventional munitions. So that way Russia could have a choice. Try to Nuke NATO and kick off world war 3 in full nuclear Technicolor. Or accept an ass whooping with conventional weapons to boot them out of Ukraine.

There was no Russian withdrawl promise as part of that supposed deal - Russia refused to discuss borders and territory at that stage, saying it would be discussed later. Russia held more of Ukraine then than they do now, including a crucial foothold over the Dnipro which is Ukraine's major natural barrier.
And the deal also involved Ukraine disbanding most of its army, limiting itself to 85,000 soldiers, 340 tanks, and missile range limited to 40km. While Russia gave up nothing. These limits would have left Ukraine totally defenceless and caused a total front collapse when Russia violated it to invade again just like they violated every previous agreeement with Ukraine.

Putitler is worried about the Trillions he owes for his Genocidal land grab war in Ukraine.
Luckily, there is 300,000 km of Territory that Russia stole from China that could help pay that debt.
Russia just has to leave both the Ukrainian territory they invaded, and give back the territory to China, and China could help pay for Russia's blunder.

"Wars begin when you will, but they do not end when you please." - Niccolo Machiavelli.
Ironically, the above quote isn't even true in this case - Russia can always just retreat out of Ukraine's pre-2014 territory, and the war will end. But it's all on Russia. Nobody else has any power to end the war. These silly "peace deals" for Ukraine to surrender are a farce.

I think one of the biggest impacts is gonna be an increase in the use of simple glide bombs by the Ukranians, the Russians have been devastating with them and there’s no real counter when they’re fired from behind the line.
Just having more aircraft to use simple munitions is game changing.

Great Britain, Germany and the US have not had as formidable an enemy as Ukraine has in Russia. Of course they are going to lose more tanks to them. Ukraine has been receiving training for the last year with the F-16's and when they arrive Russia will have to pull their forces back further away from the border. The F-16's will be maintained in Poland so don't you worry about that.

That's literally their job, though... Army Corps of Engineers and their international equivalents are responsible for building and deconstructing military bases, temporary bridges and other temporary constructions.
Practicing building a temporary dock is expensive on its own, practicing it across the ocean even moreso. They wouldn't get this type of experience training safely on or near their base. And the construction and maintenance was under hostile fire, so any faults in their training will come to the surface. It's basically a stress test.
