SATISH SHARMA - not just Rotigraphy.: "Move on." The country that has kept a global military footprint across the planet since 1975 is telling us to move on.

"Move on." The country that has kept a global military footprint across the planet since 1975 is telling us to move on. The country that sanctioned Iraq into a humanitarian catastrophe, then invaded it on fabricated evidence, killing hundreds of thousands of civilians, is telling us to move on. The country that ran drone assassination programs across multiple nations, that overthrew governments in Libya, that fueled proxy war in Syria, that has strangled Cuba with sanctions for more than six decades, is telling us to move on. I want to ask you something directly. Did America move on? Because from where I'm standing, the same logic that sent B-52s over Hanoi is still at work in Caracas, in Tehran, in Havana, in every capital that dares to tell Washington no. The tactics have better branding now. They call it "democracy promotion" instead of carpet bombing. They freeze assets instead of dropping napalm. They fund opposition media instead of running Phoenix Program assassinations. But beneath every intervention is the same question America asked in Vietnam: Who gave you permission to choose your own path? You didn't come to save us in 1965. You came to punish us as an example. And when the example failed, when we won, you didn't reflect. You didn't change. You just found smaller countries to make examples of next. As for profiting from hate: The chemical companies that manufactured Agent Orange are still profitable today. Still have shareholders. Still pay dividends. Off a product that is still deforming Vietnamese children in 2026. Tell me again who's profiting. And most Vietnamese have moved on, forward. We rebuilt. We grew. We thrived despite your nineteen-year embargo. But moving on doesn't mean pretending it didn't happen. It means knowing exactly what happened, and exactly who did it, and making sure the world never mistakes power for righteousness again. That's not hate. Phil. That's memory. And memory is the one thing empires have always feared more than any army.

Pretty uncool to try to stir up anti US hatred based on the tragic war which was bigger than your beautiful home country. Most Vietnamese have moved on. You should too, unless you just want to profit from hate.
