		<description>Hello everyone,

I do not think China has any plan to do this.  It is apparently someone&#039;s evil trick again to increase the tension between the two countries and take advantages from this at the end.  USA? Japan? Vietnam? or what? I am wondering if Vietnam is so naive to believe this?  Vietnam made a voice for some reasons other than the mentioned non-existing plan.  What reasons?  You guys think about it.</description>

		<description>Yours Truly: Don&#039;t worry, I was just making a point to Euv. Personally I don&#039;t think the Chinese are going to do it as those who wrote the so-called &#039;conspiracy theory&#039; are probably people who haven&#039;t been through proper military training. If this theory was actually real, the news should be spread all over the world by now (which it didn&#039;t, only a small part of the news leaked through).
What I really wanted to know is that why are they posting this on the internet? If this article wasn&#039;t true, the Chinese government will probably track down whoever wrote this. So what kind of benefit are they getting from posting up a piece of false information?</description>

		<description>Quite DISSED with all &#039;em nationalists &amp; &quot;patriots&quot; of all stripes. S!@#$%^&amp;*()_s can go f!@#$%&#039; FIGHT for their countries, instead of &#039;em REAL PATRIOTS in their countries (re : armed forces personnel). People who have never even damn used weapons or involved &#039;emselves in war before should just shut the hell up. MHO.</description>

		<description>Jennifer : I really doubt that the chinese are in any position to start invadin&#039; her neighbors...fact being they&#039;ve got enough INTERNAL TROUBLES of their own. 

&amp; it would be TRAGIC for &#039;em to start attackin&#039; countries where there are very substantial populations of ethnic chinese o&#039;er in those places. Anyways, it would be foolhardy to assume that wagin&#039; war with the Vietnamese is gonna be a cakewalk. 

Not so much &#039;bout the material wealth of the populace in a country (in fact material obsession kills a peoples&#039; esprit de corps), but the Vietnamese have always been tough fellas.</description>

		<description>Euv, even though People&#039;s Republic of China claimed Taiwan but they do not have the entire control over Taiwan. Today, the things that are made from Taiwan are still marked &#039;Made from Taiwan&#039; so that means that PRC does not have the control over the economy. The main reason PRC is trying to attack Vietnam is to get the oil from the South China&#039;s Sea and oil = economy. Therefore, what I am trying to say is that PRC will have to take control over Taiwan to completely claim Taiwan as its own. So Elambend was right, PRC still needs to attack Taiwan (but they should not, Taiwan is a great place, nobody wants war there). 
Anyway, Vietnam isn&#039;t easy to dominate over. If it is, Vietnam would not be Vietnam, it&#039;d probably be a part of France or USA by now.
Usually people would think that Vietnam is a poor country and is very easy to control over...etc. They are indeed wrong. Vietnam&#039;s economy is growing rapidly as the quality of a Vietnamese&#039;s life is getting better and better everyday. Nowadays, you can see expensive cars all around Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City or other growing cities. Vietnam is developing well, why should we start another war so we can start the whole thing all over again? There are people out there who went to Vietnam once and wanted to go again. If the war starts, nobody will get to go to Vietnam anymore. Noodle soup won&#039;t be available anymore as many other great food will not be there as well. (If you&#039;re thinking that you&#039;ll get noodle soup in other countries, you are wrong. Sure they have them, but the ones in Vietnam are always the best).</description>

		<description>Of course the Chinese military have plans drawn up for Vietnamese contingency operations, but I seriously doubt they were &#039;leaked&#039; to the news media. As for Vietnam being invaded throughout the centuries, they have been the invaders as often as the &#039;invadees&#039;. They annihilated Champa to take what is today Central Vietnam, and then stole everything south of that from the Cambodians about the time of the 13 colonies. The one invader who left the most lasting impression on Vietnam is China, given that Chinese culture lies at the very heart of Vietnamese culture. Indeed, the threat of a possible permanent Chinese presence was what spurred &#039;Uncle Ho&#039; to agree to the return of the French to Tonkin in 1945. Until recently, China could have been described as having the world&#039;s largest military museum, the PLA. That is changing and China is developing a maritime power projection capability, and appears to be improving its airborne forces. Is this cause for concern for Vietnam? Yes as regards Vietnamese claims to the Spratleys, but only to a much lesser degree as regards the survival of the Vietnamese state. Vietnam has the terrain and population to make itself a bitter pill to swallow. It could not survive an all out Chinese push to obliterate it, but it can make such an effort so potentially costly that invasion would always remain China&#039;s remedy of last resort.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve found that there is an American tendency to overplay Vietnam&#039;s strengths in the Sino-Vietnamese war of 79. Almost as if they were making up for having lost their own war with Vietnam by saying haha you lost too. The operational timetable for the war from the Chinese perspective obviously did not include time to occupy Hanoi. The Chinese objectives were twofold; to force a Vietnamese withdraw from Cambodia and to test the extent of the Soviet-Vietnamese military alliance. They failed at the former but demonstrated that the Soviets indeed were unwilling to commit their military forces directly to protect Vietnam.

The &quot;bloody nose&quot; scenario which every tom, dick, and harry gets from the internet is based on Vietnamese claims of Chinese casualties (real reliable there) and partly on the gross ignorance of many authors when it comes to the definition of the term casualty. A casualty is a broad term that refers to killed, wounded, missing, etc. Too many people think that casualty simply refers to killed.</description>

Got to agree with you, I doubt the Mainland Chinese are so d!@#headed as to invade any of their neighboring states. They just ain&#039;t that crazy.</description>

		<description>VN is 85million people, it can have at least 20 million
soldier if China want to invade, I am sure the invader don&#039;t 
want to spend that much.  cost too much money to get something 
in return. After all, Vietnamese are people with culture, not 
like so called &quot;rebellious&quot; tibetian by China, OR rebellious
Georgia by the Russia whose population just a few millions to
be easy harrass. I know people like to talk bullshit on the internet the facts are people with average IQ knew already.

		<description>Richard: That was in 1979, when the country was full of battle-hardened veterans of ten years of pitiless war with the biggest, meanest military machine on the planet.  The PLA was a rotting hulk just tottering its way out of the Cultural Revolution.  That outcome was overdetermined.

Now?  The PLA is one of the major economic players in the world economy, and the American War generation in Vietnam are antiques or dead.  I wouldn&#039;t call it a rollover, but a Chinese victory might be plausible, if they caught the Vietnamese unprepared.  The US certainly isn&#039;t positioned to do anything about it, I don&#039;t think.  It isn&#039;t as if Vietnam was an island...</description>

Euv, you are either a Chinese nationalist troll or you are a troll of an even sadder breed.. 
Either way your comment was crass and disrespectful to say the least and its kind has no place in this gentleman&#039;s forum. 
That said, ElamBend, in his geo-politically learned ways needs no defense by me and I would wager he is dignified enough to ignore your ignorant drivel.</description>
