Well, invading Vietnam seems to be a bad decision through and through on U.S' part. Like, they should have at least known Vietnam's history before deciding. Vietnam, as a small nation, spent thousands of year fending off Chinese invasion, and fought off the Mongol Empire 3 times in a row when they were still the biggest empire in the world after conquering Europe. Anyone with common sense would know Vietnam war was a bad idea.

"Vietnam has the right to be a free and independent country-and in fact is so already. The entire Vietnamese people are determined to mobilize all their physical and mental strength, to sacrifice their lives and property in order to safeguard their independence and liberty." Ho Chi Minh, Declaration of Independence
"...Nevertheless, for more than eighty years, the French imperialists, in the name of Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity, have violated our Fatherland and oppressed our fellow citizens. They have acted contrary to the ideals of humanity and justice. In the field of politics, they have deprived our people of every democratic liberty. They have enforced inhuman laws; they have set up three distinct political regimes in the North, Center, and South of Vietnam in order to destroy our national unity and prevent our people from being united. They have built more prisons than schools. They have mercilessly slaughtered our patriots; they have drowned our uprisings in bloodbaths. They have fettered public opinion; they have practiced obscurantism against our people. To weaken our race they have forced us to use opium and alcohol. In the field of economics, they have fleeced us to the backbone, impoverished our people and devastated our land. They have robbed us of our rice fields, our mines, our forests, and our raw materials. They have monopolized the issuing of bank notes and the export trade. They have invented numerous unjustifiable taxes and reduced our people, especially our peasantry, to a state of extreme poverty. They have hampered the prospering of our national bourgeoisie; they have mercilessly exploited our workers."
This whole war was the result of a critical decision from the U.S : their rejection to support Ho Chi Minh - the founding father of Vietnam. Believe it or not, Ho Chi Minh never wanted to embrace full Communism, the declaration of independence that he wrote was based on the U.S declaration of independence. His only goal was to have Vietnam become an independent nation, free of France's grasp, free of China's influence. He approached the U.S with the intention of asking for their supports in Vietnam's independence, hoping that they could put themselves in the Vietnamese's shoe because the U.S was also a colonial nation that got its independence, and Vietnam was doing the same. However, since the U.S were ally to France as part of the treaty, they couldn't risk losing France in order to contain the spread of Communism. Plus, Vietnam wasn't showing any potential of a strong nation yet, so the U.S had no reason to support Ho and his movement. Ho Chi Minh had no other choice but to turn to the USSR for help. He used Communism as a tool to free Vietnam, a necessary devil. Vietnam only went full Communism after Ho Chi Minh's death. By then, his successor - Le Duan who was a radical Communist, enacted many isolationist reforms that brought vietnam into a stage of stagnant till 1987 when he died and the Communist party began to open to the free market.
Yes this is so true, like I said to people who hate our Founding father, you can hate him as much as you want but Viet nam would never be an independent country if he never turned to USSR for help. Even today our communism is much more liberating than the ones you see in China and North Korea.
Wait,so you all are saying that Ho Chi Minh only wanted Vietnam to have independence and even asked for US support,but because the US and France were allies they didn’t support Ho Chi Minh And thus Ho Chi Minh only wanted to use communism to give independence to Vietnam,thus this sparked the Vietnam war which to the people of Vietnam was an American war?
In India I'm taught in the text book that Ho chi Minh was a great freedom fighter of Vietnam... Who fought against all colonial strengths... And as an Indian being suppressed by colonial forces for 200 years really felt for him and Vietnam..... Kudos to every Vietnamese that they failed to devide you into two countries and led you to long Lasting moral and economic fight like INDIA and PAKISTAN and BANGLADESH... Being a Bengali My grandparents had to overnight leave their houses forever and come to new India... Many of my relatives died in this nuisance... Edit: Thank you everyone for showing solidarity...

@@minhtruong785 You're right its not thats why he got that quote from the battle of the bulge ( reiterated its actually a meme sorta but it still means the same just the actual version is a bit different ) so go to take your fake iraq or vietnam story to a sabaton comment section
Dont forget that north vietnam was backed by urss, china, cuba, and other commie countries during that time !! South Vietnam was backed by USA who broke the alliance and went for economy with Mao china and at the same dividing china versus urss.
Common misconception and misunderstanding, the Vietnamese didnt care wether they were socialist or capitalist, they fought for an independant Vietnam (ironically against the USA to gain independance)
They didn't fight against the US to gain independence, they fought against France. At this point and time, both the north and south were independent nations, and neither was controlled by the US. The North invaded the South, and the South requested international assistance, as the Communists were invading South Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, the international community intervened, while Communist nations poured support onto the North. Troops from dozens of countries fought in this war. So no, no one was fighting the US for independence. The US never controlled Vietnam, had nothing to do with the creation of North or South Vietnam, and didn't even support the South Vietnamese government for much of the early period. The North wanted to unite the North and South by military force with a rifle in front and the Communist world at their back, and the Communists took Southeast Asia. Let's not pretend it was the Americans engaged in imperialism, it was the Communists and their allies engaged in imperialism.
Vietnam was declared to be an independent country (2/9/1945) after vietminh defeated the Japanese. The last emperor of vietnam (Bao Dai) dethrone himself and declared the righteousness of the new government of vietnam in 1945. Therefore, vietnam from the start is one country. No south or north. Bao Dai was famous with his claim: he would rather be a citizen in a free country than be the emperor of a dependent one. Bao Dai himself was invited to be the Supreme advisor to the new government but soon left the country. He returned to vietnam after the french persuaded him to serve as head of state. The successors of this state were the Diem and Thieu after several coup d’etat which was puppeted by the US. Therefore there is no righteousness of those called southern government from the start. They are all puppets.
@@chaaulinh The North and South were both to be temporary governments until a national government could replace them. Instead, both the Communists and Nationalists fought against the French (they fought the Japanese too, but didn't defeat them, rather the US did in a different theater). That said, it wasn't the Communists alone who achieved independence, and the Communists didn't represent the resistance generally, only the Communist resistance. The Chinese had a lot to do with the establishment of the north as Communist, and other powers had a lot to do with the establishment of the South as non-Communist, but both were completely independent, and neither was a puppet of the French. That was slander used by the Communist North as a pretext for invading the South, but it had no basis in fact. In fact, the South Vietnamese fought of the North Vietnamese alone and unsupported for years, while the Chinese meddled throughout the length of the conflict on behalf of the Communists, and the North massacred civilians on both sides who disagreed with them by the hundreds of thousands. The United States was never a colonial power in Southeast Asia, the United States had nothing to do with the creation of South Vietnam or North Vietnam, instead like many countries, the US answered the South's call for assistance after years of invasion had begun to take its toll. In fact, the US left after everyone agreed to peace in 1973. Instead, both sides kept on fighting, the North invaded the South, and they fought alone for two years without any significant foreign assistance, while the Communists backed by much of the Communist world invaded South Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos in huge numbers. Why again were there 300,000 Chinese troops and unimaginable levels of military and civilian aid North Vietnam from China? Why were North Korean officers in North Vietnam? Why were North Vietnamese troops in Cambodia and Laos? It was all Communist aggression. It had nothing to do with some fake "independence" that they had already had since the French defeat.
Vietnam wants independence. The United States supports the south of Vietnam, but at the same time, it needs to establish a military base in Vietnam to threaten China, so China has to support North Vietnam, which is the truth. Vietnamese people in history have been repeating their personalities. Sometimes they feel good, sometimes they attack you. China has provided too much help to North Vietnam. The rice I live in our province in China was provided to Vietnam but I was reluctant to eat. However, Vietnam later wanted to invade China's land, so there was a war between China and Vietnam. Vietnamese can never be friends. This is determined by their national character. You help them, but they attack you.
The elite earns alot from each war, ex. earn money from drug, oil, exploit resources, sell weapons for both side. The elite even use American’s tax to pay for their war’s debt and take away billions $ from American. War brings money and advantages for the rich, so the lesson is for poor people, not for the elite.
My grandfather, a Vietnam veteran AND staunch anti-communist, liked Ho Chi Minh. He believed he wasn’t a full communist but wanted freedom for the Vietnamese people. Free from the French and free from colonialism. It’s very weird.
The thing about Ho Chi Minh at least from his writing and actions is that he actually was a true believer in communism, the discrepancy is that the leaders of most self styled communist countries were not and simply used it as rhetoric to keep themselves in power.
He got a point. The true ideology of Vietnamese was never communism or capitalism. It was nationalism. Even today, Vietnamese history textbooks still emphasize our nationalism and our patriotic struggle against foreign invaders, while the communism part is only taught in the highest level of education.

In the war, Vietnamese people only think of peace. I am Vietnamese and I always remember patriotic examples. During the Dien Bien Phu battle, the hero Phan Dinh Giot decided to sacrifice for peace. He took his body to fill the enemy's artillery for the Vietnamese army to advance. And there are many other examples. Be Van Dan is a hero of Vietnam. During the battle, the whole team died and only 17 people remained. At that time they did not have a place to place small artillery shells to shoot enemy. Be Van Dan told his teammate Chu Van Pu to put the cannon on his shoulder. He was seriously injured in his shoulders and torso and died. There are many other examples but I can't tell them all. I'am not gud at English :v Viet Nam
One of my Vietnamese friends had most of her village slaughtered because the Americans thought they were hiding communists. At the time her family had fortunately already immigrated from Vietnam.
We used to have: - A battle of Dien Bien Phu in the mountains with France. - A battle of Dien Bien Phu on the Air with the US. - And now we are preparing for a battle of Dien Bien Phu at sea with China.

The Vietnam War holds the record for the most dropped bombs in history, with 7,662,000 tons of explosives used by the U.S. Air Force, 3.7 times more than the 2,150,000 tons used by all countries during World War II. Another source reported that the amount of bombs used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War was about 15.35 million tons, including 7.85 million tons dropped from aircraft and another 7.5 million tons used on the ground.

When people look at that statistic they never look at the hundreds of thousands dead South Vietnamese, French, Australians and other allies. Overall, the deaths on each side look much more balanced.
My grandfather was drafted into the Vietnam War three times, but he was able to keep himself from being a soldier because he was in dental school at the time. He ended up being an Air Force dentist in South Carolina.

I'm Vietnamese. I'm glad that you mentioned atrocities committed by both sides. History textbooks in my country and even foreign documentaries most of the time only state atrocities committed by the American side. IMO the war was fought between two sides which both committed atrocities, a terrible war indeed.
I saw Viet Cong atrocities committed against Vietnamese Civilians when they refused to supply and provide men to VC. Tam Quan near Bong Son 1969. Then again later at Ap Bin Lam near Phan Thiet also 1969. Don't blow smoke because I was there. 173rd. Abn. Infantry. Johnson should have listened to Curtis Lemay and bombed The North into the stone age. Both Governments corrupt.
How could anyone make such a superb video outlining the entire war in just a few minutes, but make such a silly mistake as saying Ho Chi Minh City became the capital of the entire country? Hanoi remained the capital.

Thuy Nguyen Thi Le Thuy Love Vietnam from America. You have a beautiful country and amazing people over there and I hope one day I can visit your awesome nation!
Overall I feel that this is a pretty accurate video on the war. However, the elections in the south were not what they seem to be. The south Vietnamese government was largely created and backed by the U.S. without the majority support of its people. Also, the Gulf of Tonkin incident may have been fabricated according to McNamara and a CIA executive. I’m glad this video exists, as it is definitely more impartial and informative than what you learn in history class in America.
How he just casually brushed over the 12 days and nights of Hanoi confused me in an otherwise fair and succinctly thorough discussion. It was objectively remarkable that not only Hanoi was not bombed to the stone age but even managed to shoot down many B52s.

MetalHeart8787 true, the North Vietnamese, and Communists in general are the reason most lives were lost in the twentieth century, approximately 250 Million people have died because of communism since it was adopted by Russia.
Anh Dang well they honestly weren't "minding their own business" the video explains that pretty obviously. I mean America was allied with south Vietnam, and north Vietnam invaded...so..yeah when an enemy invades your Ally, you help.
If your are trying to understand why the war happened in a few words, here it is: 1) The us supported financially the France colony in Vietnam. After the splitting of the country in two and the withdrawal of the french, us wanted to continue its support in south Vietnam (which was now a republic) and to fight against the north communist Vietnam. 2) as anti-communist propaganda grew in us (the domino theory), the us people demanded greater support to the south Vietnam republic. 3) the north Vietnamese resistance grew too strong, and the us just couldn’t accept a defeat by the communists. That would ruin their powerful image worldwide. So the war just escalated to an excessive amount 3) us wanted to show its power to the Chinese and Russian who supported the communist north Vietnam.
Roy Senpai's Fan Club at which point exactly? Where? All I have mentioned is literally historical knowledge. Vietnam is just one of the victims of the Cold War..
how many B 52 bomber plane down when bombing Hanoi ??? After that defeat, the Americans took a seat at the negotiation table in Paris . Remember that !
I have heard they used the bombs equivalent to double the war world 2 usage. That is why American went into recession after Vietnam war and couldn’t full fill request Nguyễn Văn Thiệu’s for American air support. President Johnson was too brainwashed to fight communism he forgot what he is fighting for
Using indiscriminate bombing is nothing new to the US in bringing others to the table, look in Afghanistan they are bombing civilians in order to force the Taliban to the table if they want the bombings to stop.
@@darrenbutler9819 the United States failed its bombing campaign in Vietnam.It was the last US military campaign during the war and lasted for 12 days from Dec 18 until 29th.

@T-REX THE DINO You forgot about Vietnam haha ignorant
Dont forget that north vietnam was backed by urss, china, cuba, and other commie countries during that time !!
South Vietnam was backed by USA who broke the alliance and went for economy with Mao china and at the same dividing china versus urss.
@T-REX THE DINO The Vietnam war was about the communist north and the capitalist south.
Common misconception and misunderstanding, the Vietnamese didnt care wether they were socialist or capitalist, they fought for an independant Vietnam (ironically against the USA to gain independance)
Not ironically at all xdxdxd
They didn't fight against the US to gain independence, they fought against France. At this point and time, both the north and south were independent nations, and neither was controlled by the US.
The North invaded the South, and the South requested international assistance, as the Communists were invading South Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, the international community intervened, while Communist nations poured support onto the North. Troops from dozens of countries fought in this war.
So no, no one was fighting the US for independence. The US never controlled Vietnam, had nothing to do with the creation of North or South Vietnam, and didn't even support the South Vietnamese government for much of the early period.
The North wanted to unite the North and South by military force with a rifle in front and the Communist world at their back, and the Communists took Southeast Asia. Let's not pretend it was the Americans engaged in imperialism, it was the Communists and their allies engaged in imperialism.
Vietnam was declared to be an independent country (2/9/1945) after vietminh defeated the Japanese. The last emperor of vietnam (Bao Dai) dethrone himself and declared the righteousness of the new government of vietnam in 1945. Therefore, vietnam from the start is one country. No south or north. Bao Dai was famous with his claim: he would rather be a citizen in a free country than be the emperor of a dependent one. Bao Dai himself was invited to be the Supreme advisor to the new government but soon left the country. He returned to vietnam after the french persuaded him to serve as head of state. The successors of this state were the Diem and Thieu after several coup d’etat which was puppeted by the US. Therefore there is no righteousness of those called southern government from the start. They are all puppets.
@@chaaulinh The North and South were both to be temporary governments until a national government could replace them. Instead, both the Communists and Nationalists fought against the French (they fought the Japanese too, but didn't defeat them, rather the US did in a different theater).
That said, it wasn't the Communists alone who achieved independence, and the Communists didn't represent the resistance generally, only the Communist resistance.
The Chinese had a lot to do with the establishment of the north as Communist, and other powers had a lot to do with the establishment of the South as non-Communist, but both were completely independent, and neither was a puppet of the French. That was slander used by the Communist North as a pretext for invading the South, but it had no basis in fact.
In fact, the South Vietnamese fought of the North Vietnamese alone and unsupported for years, while the Chinese meddled throughout the length of the conflict on behalf of the Communists, and the North massacred civilians on both sides who disagreed with them by the hundreds of thousands.
The United States was never a colonial power in Southeast Asia, the United States had nothing to do with the creation of South Vietnam or North Vietnam, instead like many countries, the US answered the South's call for assistance after years of invasion had begun to take its toll.
In fact, the US left after everyone agreed to peace in 1973. Instead, both sides kept on fighting, the North invaded the South, and they fought alone for two years without any significant foreign assistance, while the Communists backed by much of the Communist world invaded South Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos in huge numbers.
Why again were there 300,000 Chinese troops and unimaginable levels of military and civilian aid North Vietnam from China? Why were North Korean officers in North Vietnam? Why were North Vietnamese troops in Cambodia and Laos? It was all Communist aggression. It had nothing to do with some fake "independence" that they had already had since the French defeat.
Vietnam wants independence. The United States supports the south of Vietnam, but at the same time, it needs to establish a military base in Vietnam to threaten China, so China has to support North Vietnam, which is the truth. Vietnamese people in history have been repeating their personalities. Sometimes they feel good, sometimes they attack you. China has provided too much help to North Vietnam. The rice I live in our province in China was provided to Vietnam but I was reluctant to eat. However, Vietnam later wanted to invade China's land, so there was a war between China and Vietnam. Vietnamese can never be friends. This is determined by their national character. You help them, but they attack you.
Watching this after the US pullout of Afghanistan after 20 years of war, they seem to never learn their lesson
History repeats itself
They know what they are doing. The BS about making democracy is what they tell you but its all lies
US always try to act like heroes but never get any shit done at all
The elite earns alot from each war, ex. earn money from drug, oil, exploit resources, sell weapons for both side. The elite even use American’s tax to pay for their war’s debt and take away billions $ from American.
War brings money and advantages for the rich, so the lesson is for poor people, not for the elite.
don't compare us to the afghanistan, the women there didn't have any rights.
My grandfather, a Vietnam veteran AND staunch anti-communist, liked Ho Chi Minh. He believed he wasn’t a full communist but wanted freedom for the Vietnamese people. Free from the French and free from colonialism. It’s very weird.
Respect to you and especially your grandfather
Double the respect
And that's why Ho Chi Minh is one of my most favourite communists if not the greatest.
The thing about Ho Chi Minh at least from his writing and actions is that he actually was a true believer in communism, the discrepancy is that the leaders of most self styled communist countries were not and simply used it as rhetoric to keep themselves in power.
He got a point. The true ideology of Vietnamese was never communism or capitalism. It was nationalism. Even today, Vietnamese history textbooks still emphasize our nationalism and our patriotic struggle against foreign invaders, while the communism part is only taught in the highest level of education.

In the war, Vietnamese people only think of peace. I am Vietnamese and I always remember patriotic examples. During the Dien Bien Phu battle, the hero Phan Dinh Giot decided to sacrifice for peace. He took his body to fill the enemy's artillery for the Vietnamese army to advance. And there are many other examples. Be Van Dan is a hero of Vietnam. During the battle, the whole team died and only 17 people remained. At that time they did not have a place to place small artillery shells to shoot enemy. Be Van Dan told his teammate Chu Van Pu to put the cannon on his shoulder. He was seriously injured in his shoulders and torso and died. There are many other examples but I can't tell them all.

The UK didn’t participate in the Vietnam war.
The Vietnam War holds the record for the most dropped bombs in history, with 7,662,000 tons of explosives used by the U.S. Air Force, 3.7 times more than the 2,150,000 tons used by all countries during World War II. Another source reported that the amount of bombs used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War was about 15.35 million tons, including 7.85 million tons dropped from aircraft and another 7.5 million tons used on the ground.
But aren't Laos and North Korea more bombed than Vietnam?

Overall I feel that this is a pretty accurate video on the war. However, the elections in the south were not what they seem to be. The south Vietnamese government was largely created and backed by the U.S. without the majority support of its people. Also, the Gulf of Tonkin incident may have been fabricated according to McNamara and a CIA executive. I’m glad this video exists, as it is definitely more impartial and informative than what you learn in history class in America.

If your are trying to understand why the war happened in a few words, here it is:
1) The us supported financially the France colony in Vietnam. After the splitting of the country in two and the withdrawal of the french, us wanted to continue its support in south Vietnam (which was now a republic) and to fight against the north communist Vietnam.
2) as anti-communist propaganda grew in us (the domino theory), the us people demanded greater support to the south Vietnam republic.
3) the north Vietnamese resistance grew too strong, and the us just couldn’t accept a defeat by the communists. That would ruin their powerful image worldwide. So the war just escalated to an excessive amount
3) us wanted to show its power to the Chinese and Russian who supported the communist north Vietnam.

Using indiscriminate bombing is nothing new to the US in bringing others to the table, look in Afghanistan they are bombing civilians in order to force the Taliban to the table if they want the bombings to stop.

@@kurotaL61200 Do your history vietnam was split in 2 the north was communist and the south was not. The U.S feared that the north would win so they sent troops to help the south. Eventually the u.s had bigger fish to fry and decided to leave vietnam. The north won after the U.S left and vietnam was back together.
I needed to make a presentation about this. Thanks for the help!!!
