From a 1968 Reader’s Digest piece on the rule of Ho Chi Minh:

The terror had its real beginning when Red dictator Ho Chi Minh consolidated his power in the North. More than a year before his 1954 victory over the French, he launched a savage campaign against his own people. In virtually every North Vietnamese village, strong-arm squads assembled the populace to witness the “confessions” of landowners. As time went on, businessmen, intellectuals, school teachers, civic leaders — all who represented a potential source of future opposition — were also rounded up and forced to “confess” to “errors of thought.” There followed public “trials,” conviction and, in many cases, execution. People were shot, beheaded, beaten to death; some were tied up, thrown into open graves and covered with stones until they were crushed to death, Ho has renewed his terror in North Vietnam periodically. Between 50,000 and 100,000 are believed to have died in these blood-baths — in a coldly calculated effort to discipline the party and the masses. To be sure, few who escape Ho’s terror now seem likely to tempt his wrath. During the 1950s, however, he had to quell some sizeable uprisings in North Vietnam — most notably one that occurred in early November 1956, in the An province, which included Ho’s birthplace village of Nam Dan. So heavily had he taxed the region that the inhabitants finally banded together and refused to meet his price. Ho sent troops to collect, and then sent in an army division, shooting. About 6,000 unarmed villagers were killed. The survivors scattered, some escaping to the South. The slaughter went largely unnoticed by a world then preoccupied with the Soviet Union’s rape of Hungary.

From a recent speech by Dear Leader:

“And we discussed the fact that Ho Chi Minh was actually inspired by the U.S. Declaration of Independence and Constitution, and the words of Thomas Jefferson. Ho Chi Minh talks about his interest in cooperation with the United States. And President Sang indicated that even if it’s 67 years later, it’s good that we’re still making progress.”


:wow: :just fucking WOW!:


Did he mean Robespierre?
 
I think what's playing loudly in the back of his mind is the whole 'the ends justify the means' thing. Ho, Mao, Stalin, Hitler, etc. I think he's envious.

...he says, bothering enough to reply to someone he pretends to ignore.

It's truly adorable that he thinks I'm talking to him. :)
 
^^^ Still not good at this ignore business.
 
Iggy: A blank check for others to laugh at you behind your back.
 
its actually a brilliant strategy

to call everything a POUTRAGE and a NONTROVERSY

and to diminish everything

BRILLIANT!

If the United States Marines in Vietnam had fought as hard against Ho Chi Minh as the United States Marines on the General Board fight against President Barack Obama, we wouldn't be having this conversation today.

But they didn't and we are.
