It is sad to see such hostility against the People's Republic of China. I feel like the West is purposefully trying to stoke tension in the region by pitting China's neighbors against Beijing in a thinly veiled containment policy.
"Pivot to Asia" as they like to call it.
Obama's Sino-phobic Asia tour last month as a good example of this policy.

Vietnam must immediately work to contain this nationalist outburst, or bad things may come.

...Most of South-East Asia hates Chinese people because they are seen as rich, powerful, and controlling.

You forgot "arrogant" and "domineering". ;) The Chinese have a lovely reputation, and their recent actions -- trying to lay claim to anything and everything nearby -- are making that rep into truth. I think the Chinese reputation in Asia is even worse that the US's was in Latin American during the worst of its meddling.

While no doubt it would be effective, Americans don't like fighting in Vietnam. We don't like words ending in am, it reminds us of getting up in the morning.


Sure it has nothing to do with being defeated?

Believed by who exactly? You're making this wild claim with no basis whatsoever.

Technically America wasn't defeated. I mean, it failed in every key objective, but it never actually invaded North Vietnam (AFAIK), and so to call it a genuine "defeat" would be tricky.

oH MY GOD HILARIOUS

1. Devastating to companies with foreign investment, due to the obvious cessation of trade or the collateral damage of their factories and offices.
2. No reason to invade. Ergo, damaging on the international stage.
3. Why?

I assume you mean "could" in the sense that "yes, it is hypothetically possible for the US to put soldiers in China by force" and not in the sense of "...and keep them there for any length of time, much less achieve any plausible military-political objective".

We weren't defeated but we didn't win. We failed our political objectives of ensuring the survival of South Vietnam, however other than maybe a couple of battles we were never defeated. We lost the will to fight at home.

But it led the Defence of South Vietnam, which was defeated.
Therefore, its a defeat.
