There are no US prisoners in Vietnam. Why would there be? The missing are dead and unrecovered. I guarantee you they are all dead-not captive. Vietnam released all prisoners.

You never answer the question. How many american civilians were killed by laos and vietnam? i'll deal with your points. vietnam never really invaded laos, they entered our country to open a supply route down to the south of vietnam. they were welcomed in. the vietnames have always been our brothers. the pathet laos removed the unpopular government to instill a loose socialist system-this was welcomed by the people.believe me, i know the facts-i was born there, i suffered there, my people are still suffering. not because of the vietnames or the pathet laos, but because of the US bombardment. are you seriously saying what you did was ok? agent orange? bombies? 4 million dead? again, 4 million dead. try to imagine that number. not easy is it? and yet you don't care. you won't even admit you were wrong. we never harmeda single US civilian. we didn't even know your country existed, and you saughtered us. why do you think the whole world hates America?

I am a communist-I have lived in communist countries (although laos doesn't really qualify) I lived in Cuba-and although people don't have big screen tvs and SUVs, thereis little or no poverty. Everyone eats, no hmelessness, free healthcare and education. You can't say the same about America. Most Socialist countries are better than the US-Cuba, Venezuela are paradise compared to the hellhole of America
