Vietnam is an organized country. Strong and determined, independent and disciplined. So what if their leader is on his "death bed"?. We are all on our death beds from the time we are born.

Vietnam defeated and humiliated the USA in taht ugly war that the US imposed on them. The Vitnamese hav a succession plan. They have the poltical infrastructure necessary to carry them forwaard when their leaders pass on. The US dos not.

Take one look at the commander in chief of the USA. Its president Joe Biden. Then take a look at who is likly to succeed him. There has been no one of sound mind running the US since Biden's condition worsened whatever the undisclosed cause. His condition is worse than that of the Vietnamese leader'. Bidden is the walking dead!!

Donald Trump may be crazy. But with that many supporters, one gets the idea. This is what the self righteous USA has become. A destroyed nation of over 100,000 drug overdoses each year. Over 40,000 reported rapes per year (the unreported numbers are said to likely be twice as high), between 60-100,000 murders, 40,000 gun violations (assaults) and around 26,000,000 known including registered drug addicts.

Why is Asia Sentinal focusing on the problems of other nations when the proprietor, Americans fail to see what their own nation is really like. Far worse than any other nation. American has no leader in charge but an incapacitatd old man who does not know his own name unless someone prompts him. The alternative is an even greater enemy. A redneck, who elevates himself on the podium boasting of things he has never done and claiming he can part the red sea and walk on water.

I'm curious to ask. What do you get out of subscribing and pouring copious amounts of vinegar on every single article published here that doesn't outright glaze an Asian country with your whataboutism regarding the failings of the US?

I get that it's your freedom of speech and opinion, but it seems odd to me that someone like yourself with nothing constructive to contribute is still subscribed here hoping to cop attention from anybody reading here with your comments. Are you shooting the breeze in retirement like an old man yelling at clouds, or is someone behind your online rhetoric bankrolling or goading your words and ill behaviour here?

If nobody in your life ever taught you the value of "if you have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all" then it's high time you learnt that lesson. Speaking for myself personally, people like you make it very hard to argue for or support freedom of speech or opinion as a universal ideal, because you think having the freedom to spill bile behind a screen against others more qualified and better learned than you equates to you being able to handle the responsibility in doing so.
