Pretty cruel to say that bombing Laos is not having much affect as there is rural areas are targeted, while still a country can’t develop due to huge amount of the population still gets disabled for life due to bombs still hanging around on farm lands

I wanted to say, as a Vietnamese who is interested in history, I love this video, incredibly informative and helpful. I do however wanted to add some informations too:
The Vietnamese Army was a highly disciplined, well trained army at the time with good combat skills and has series of efficient communications supplied by the Soviets. The Vietcong, on the other hand, is a paramilitary organization that used more brutal tactics than practical training, which means, when the rapid offense happened, it is usually made by Vietcongs instead of the VPA, which only supplied the Vietcongs with needed ammunitions and weapons. Vietcongs, not well trained as their Northern counterpart, usually resorts to ways of doing things that may or may not violate the Geneva convention. Now, I just want to be clear, both sides did do war crimes, the VPA as well as the Americans, but people, especially in my country, don't know about how brutal the Vietcongs was.

I wonder if it was mentioned that there was an international agreement to hold a North/South referendum and America, who didn't sign, refused to let it happen. That's when the Viet Cong began their activities. That's when the Vietnam war began.

Great video man! It was very informative! My only criticism is that you kept pausing and I would check if my laptop had crashed or if it was buffering when neither was the case. If in the future you don't have these pauses I believe your videos will keep a much a better pacing and much better engagement factor. Yeah though good video!

The truth about the Vietnam War that was never fully told. United States had No intention of winning the Vietnam War from the very beginning. Fear it might become like the Korean War with mass continuing Communist Chinese troops from China pouring against American military force in Vietnam. And the threat of a thermal nuclear War with the Soviet Union. The Vietnam War started during the Civil Rights movement and racial tension between whites and blacks all across America. Several members in the US government were segregationist and they had their eyes dumping their Blacks problem on Vietnam with the chaos that was happening in Vietnam at that time between Communist North Vietnam and South Vietnam. At that time, the South Vietnamese had 250, 000 troops and North Vietnamese had 60, 000 troops and the DMZ line had already been establish at the 17th parallel. Many Vietnamese peoples from both North and South did Not support going to War and killing each other over the idea of Communist. Even though several North and South Vietnamese leaders believe Vietnam should Not be divided and try to distrupt one another. But they couldn't rally enough support among the Vietnamese peoples in Vietnam to support going to War. Until Nov. 2, 1963 When US President JF Kennedy and LB Johnson order his CIA to stage a military coup assasination on a catholic South Vietnamese President, Ngô Đình Diệm and his young brother Ngô Đình Nhu. This action give America the power to do what ever they want to Vietnam and to the Vietnamese peoples. And the US appointed an ex-Vietminh soldiers for Ho Chi Minh, Nguyễn Văn Thiệu as their puppet South Vietnamese President. The South Vietnamese President who cause the lives of 500, 000 South Vietnamese troops killed or capture by the North Vietnamese army and their communist allies The Pathet Lao army, and the Communist Khmer Rouge army of Cambodia when he order them to be station and patrol in Kampuchea. And who told Nguyễn Văn Thiệu to do so? The United States, fear more Americans troops will be killed in Kampuchea. 20 days after the military coup assassination of South Vietnamese President Ngô Đình Diệm and his young brother Ngô Đình Nhu. US President JF Kennedy was assasinated in Dallas, TX on Nov 22, 1963 and LB Johnson was sworn in as the 36th US President. On Aug 10, 1964, US President LB Johnson declare US military action to Vietnam over an alleged attack on a US destroyer, Maddox that was on patrol past the 17th parallel near Hanoi, the capital of North Vietnam. While supporting the South Vietnam. 500, 000 US ground troops was sent to fight in Vietnam. 40% of those US troops that were sent to fight in Vietnam were adult blacks male along with high school drop out white male, non-college white male, trouble teen white male, and white convict male were all sent to fight in Vietnam. And when these US troops arrive in Vietnam and they did their "Search and Destroyed mission." The Communist North Vietnam gain mass support for their cause and their army grew from 60, 000 troops to over 1, 000, 000 troops. On March 16, 1968, several group of US platoons military unit rape and massacre 500 Vietnamese villagers of women, childrens, and old peoples at the village called My Lai during their Search and Destroyed mission. When news and image of My Lai massacre broadcast all across America. There was a mass out cry of protest all across America. Demanding all US millitary force pull out of Vietnam. This lead to Republican Presidential candidate Richard Nixon winning the Nov. 3, 1968 US Presidential election. The following year, when Richard Nixon took office. His 1st excutive order was to pull out all US military force out of Vietnam. By then, the communist North Vietnamese army was already infiltrate all over in South Vietnam and attacking every since the Tet offensive that happen on Jan 30, 1968 - Sept 23, 1968. President Nixon order a nonstop US B52 bombers to bombed Hanoi, the capital of North Vietnam and its seaport military supply, Haiphong. This halted the advance of the North Vietnamese army taking over all of South Vietnam. The South Vietnamese army began retaking back many city and town from Communist North Vietnam in the South. But all that end, on August 8, 1974, when US President Richard Nixon made a televise annoucement of his resignation as US President to American peoples over the Watergate Scandal. This was a few months from the US Congressional election. On Nov. 5, 1974 The Democrats party won a landslide in the US Senate and the House of Representative. The following year in 1975, the newly elected Democrats took their seat in Congress. The 1st bill of law pass was to cut off all US military aids funding to South Vietnam. This action cause the Fall of Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam on April 30, 1975 to communist North Vietnam. Thus began a mass flow of Vietnamese refugee fleeing out of Vietnam. 10 of thousands of Vietnamese refugee died at sea from hunger, thirst, illness, Thai pirates, and Chinese warships. Today over 100's of thousands young South Vietnamese childrens are born of birth defect from the US toxic biological chemical, Agent Orange which the US military spray all over rivers and forest of South Vietnam. 3, 000, 000 innocent Vietnamese civilians of women, childrens, and old peoples had to die in their country during the Vietnam War. The Vietnam War is the worse United States War Crime in history. From Truman, JF Kennedy and LB Johnson were all were WWI and WWII veteran who sent the next young American men to become killers. Why I post this is because for years I'm tired Americans use Vietnam War as a Propaganda War story. Telling peoples that they there to help South Vietnam fight against communist North Vietnam. When America is the root cause for the Vietnam War and the downfall of South Vietnam.

The way of Vietnam war the end, do you know

Who won the Vietnam war in the December of 1972 peace talk negotiations. In December 1972, during the peace negotiations in Paris, an agreement known as the Paris Peace Accords was reached. The parties involved were the United States, North Vietnam, South Vietnam, and the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG) of South Vietnam (also known as the Viet Cong). The Accords were signed on January 27, 1973. The key outcomes of the Paris Peace Accords were: Ceasefire: A ceasefire was declared in Vietnam, which effectively ended direct U.S. military involvement in the conflict. Withdrawal of U.S. Troops: The United States agreed to withdraw all remaining U.S. forces from Vietnam within 60 days of the signing of the agreement. Release of Prisoners: Both sides agreed to exchange prisoners of war. In terms of who "won" the war, the Paris Peace Accords did not declare a clear military victory for any side. Instead, they aimed to establish a political settlement and a ceasefire. However, the subsequent events after the Accords was when the North Vietnamese and the PRG reneged on their word resulting in the fall of Saigon in April 1975 and the reunification of Vietnam under communist rule, are often interpreted as a victory for North Vietnam and the Viet Cong. Therefore, while the Paris Peace Accords marked a negotiated settlement, the ultimate outcome of the war, particularly with the fall of South Vietnam to communist forces in 1975, is often viewed as a victory for North Vietnam and the Viet Cong against the South Vietnamese but not the USA.

To this British youtuber get your fact straight. Ngô Đình Diệm was educated catholic politician appointed by Vietnam Emperor Bao Dai Nguyen and France after France lost all claim to Indochina to Ho Chi Minh and his Vietminh after losing a major battle at Diên Biên Phu on May 7, 1954. United States under US President Truman agreed to stay and support Ngô Đình Diệm to establish a democratic South Vietnam. That latee change when a young WWII Veteran Democrats presidential candidate John Fitzgerald Kennedy know as JF Kennedy and his Vice President LB Johnson won the Nov 8, 1960 US Presidential Election against Republican Presidential Candidate Richard Nixon and Vice President Henry Cabot Lodge.

Do you know what happen to all the Vietnamese villeragers who were suspect as Vietcong or Vietcong that were caught during US military soldier on their "Search and Destroy" mission? They were taken to the Intellengent in South Vietnam. Which was run by US Intel personnel. The Vietcong or suspect Vietcong would be blind fold and their hand tie behind their back and taken to a US helicopter. The US helicopter would fly high up in the sky of Vietnam. The US intel personnel would try to abstract information from the Vietcong or suspect Vietcong by threaten them to throw them out of the helicopter to their death if they refuse to tell them what they want to know. Many Vietcong and suspect Vietcong was thrown out of the US helicopter to their death. Violating the article of Warfare under the Geneva Convention. Why there "No Prison Camp" in South Vietnam after the Vietnam War. United States committed so many War Crime during the Vietnam War that the US military in Vietnam became like the Japanese army of WWII. Many was never told to American peoples and a lot was cover up and lied about the Vietnam War was fed to American peoples.
