having just returned from a holiday to HCMC, and visited the war remenents museum,found it to be a very sad place, , the photo's are very distubing to say the least, The photo's show the other side of the coin, and the cruelty that these people endured, the birth deformaties, ect, i only heard of Agent Orange, not Agent super orange, agent black agent purple, agent white, they were farmers protecting their land, would you not protect your property if it was being invaded, ???

Tại HoChiMinh không chịu đầu hàng Pháp nên xảy ra 9 năm chiến tranh. Vì thế nên nhóm Việt tay sai của Pháp phải rướcbom đạn Mỷ và nửa triệu lính Hoa Kỳ vào VN để đánh lại người Việt. Tang tóc đau thương 10 ngàn ngày của VN là do người Việt cứng đầu đòi độc lập. Nếu ai cùng như Bảo Đại, Ngô ĐDiệm, Nguyễn Văn Thiệu thì đâu có cuộc chiến tàn khốc ở VN trong thế kỷ 20.

Nathan it's historical fact that the US invaded Vietnam not the other way around. As 4 Tet the US forces won militarily but by then US and global citizens were appalled by the loss of life of US marines and the Vietnamese. Atrocities were committed on both sides.Re Ho Chi Minh's quote, If a foreign power invaded my country I would do anything to repel them and defend my country, wouldn't you? I don't think your "gook" comment helps- it says racist.. Lets agree to disagree

@brisbanemareeanne For example on the Tet offensive the vietnamese attacked when the US when were off guard and it was a holiday season, the methods of torture and how POWS were treated was horrific. So dont get started on the fact that the US were the bad guys. Ho ching minh even said every 10 men you kill of mine we will kill one of yours even at odds i will win anyway cant be asked to write anymore i know the US lost im just saying dont think the VC were shineing angels.

@brisbanemareeanne For one i'm not american so am not in denial or what ever you may say, i just think its waste all that nice militia equipment rotting on vietnam soil. Em the americans did not get "their arses wiped. I'm sure the vietnamese couldnt come to america and deafet us forces on us soil because for one they were no where near intelligent enough or could even fund the operation. Dont give me that agent orange or napalm shit, the vietnamese werent angels and didnt follow any rules...

Hi Nathan, I am sorry you feel so angry about the museum. All I can think is that you are in denial and bitter about the US defeat by these people who in spite of almost annihalation of the country by bombing greater than those droppped in World War 2, not to mention defoliating agents such as Agent Orange and Napalm, were victorious and whipped the arse of the USA. Get over it ! You and people like you are the real SHAME !

I recently returned from Vietnam, saw the War Remnants Museum & urge every tourist/ visitor to Vietnam to see this reminder of the war & realise that there is not closure for the Vietnamese people whose children are still being born with deformities - dioxin from agent orange stays in human cells for 3 generations; but they are resilient having won wars against other invaders not only the US & defeated the Khymer Rouge in Cambodia & now welcome peace & visitors to their land - Viva Vietnam!
