My point was the Vietnamese were at least equally happy (or unhappy) to see both americans or Viet Cong and in general were happier to see Viet Cong. Secondly the Chinese support of the Viet Cong was nothing like that post suggests, for crying out loud they hate each other. To quote Ho CHi Minh "better to sniff French shit for 5 years than eat Chinese shit for the rest of our lives", Russia offered more support to the Viet Cong that China did.
