George..I couldn't agree more about the whore Jane Fonda. She should be standing in front of a soft brick wall with a blindfold on and a last cigarette.
Generals though..one must look at them without the cloud of Nationalism..whatever brand it might be. One doesn't particularly link Patton with Republicanism, capitalism, a Democrat? Rommell, yes assuredly he wore a German uniform but could we say he was an avid Nazi?
Giap was tasked with ridding the country of a foreign invader. It must have been an immense satisfaction to him to throw out a European military power..The French, then the greatest most powerful in the World, the USA. The Viet Nam war was so complex it will likely be discussed hundreds of years from now but Generalship oftentimes supercedes ideology.
