The way the U.S. military carpet bombed, napalmed, phosphorus bombed and other ways the rural peoples kind of compares to what is happening in Gaza.

The Vietnamese did not really blame the American people as is evident by the way Americans were treated after the war.

There is a difference between the policy of the country and the citizens of that country. The IDF sees no difference in the citizens of Gaza and the government of Gaza. We saw no difference between the citizens of Laos, Cambodia, Viet Nam and the government of North Vietnam.
