It appears that Vietnam didn't make any concessions at all, only the US, i.e. Obama unilaterally lifted the embargo -- now we will sell weapons to Vietnam..

Aside from the fact that they are a communist country, I thought this was done long ago. I’m more concerned or upset with the latest apology tour and pictures posing in front of Ho Chi Min and so forth.

We never embargoed arms from USSR or China either. Much to the frustration of those of us trying to fight the NVA.

Any arms company that sells to them ought to be boycotted.

They all need to be aware of that.

Has anyone asked Jane Fonda for her thoughts on this?

But the USSR is gone and Vietnam is Communist INO and is now a authoritarian socialist state with crony capitalists running amok. They seem to fit the profile of the perfect Obama ally since that our current politic.

But the boogey man is China so this must be a good thing, no? China is a threat to us but Vietnam is not. Vietnam would love to be a threat to China. This looks better than arming Shiites to fight ISIS doesn’t it? Or arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS to check Russia from keeping Assad in his dessert paradise.

it is shameful to see a smiling American president posing in front of a bust of Ho Chi Minh

China is about to unleash North Korea. This move by Obama is NOT good.Very sophomoric.

President Ike is rolling over in his grave and is saying, “I warned you about the military/industrial complex! You never listen!”

Or in plain English, the Neocons never stop selling a new war and their weapons of war.
