The comment was about mines left behind from the Vietnam war, not present day.
- JoeAltmaier 9y agoActually the comment was about present-day 'the US'.
- mtarnovan 9y agoPresent-day US should care, and they should do something about it. The mines they layed 50 years ago still kill people today.
- xenophonf 9y agoI can't claim to be directly responsible for the actions of my countrymen fifty years ago, but not doing anything about their misdeeds today gives my tacit approval to those past actions and to their ongoing costs so unfairly burdening present-day Vietnamese. Plus, I think it would be a nice bit of diplomacy for the U.S. to fund mine clearing efforts in Vietnam.
