President Nicolas Maduro revealed that he is studying the tactics and thought of the Vietnamese resistance to American aggression as to better ready Venezuela from attack. Holding up a copy of Ho Chi Minh's military writings, Maduro said: "We are learning so much in practice about how to develop the entire comprehensive defensive line, and how much remains to be done and what we will do to make our homeland impenetrable, so that no one can touch our country and we can continue on the path of integral development." Under Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam was able to expel American forces from its territory in 1973. Credit: Kawasachan news

They told the world Vietnam was “saving” itself by surrendering to American bombs. But Vietnam knew better. It didn’t just resist—it defeated the most powerful empire in history, not with F-16s, but with people, principle, and unwavering sovereignty. Now, they tell the same lies about Venezuela: “regime change is inevitable,” “sanctions will break them,” “the Caribbean buildup is just routine.” But Caracas knows better. Maduro declares “We are learning from Vietnam’s heroic and victorious resistance”. Not as metaphor. As method. Now, Venezuela walks the same path—not in imitation, but in continuation. Because imperialism doesn’t fall once. It must be defeated—again and again—by every people who refuse to be erased.

Yeesh. So the venezuelan people are going to fight for 20 plus years. Lose millions of people, all to protect maduro, the guy trying to flee on them? The guy that already tried and is actively trying to surrender? Vz people. America will pay you more than maduro to join us.

It's about the logistics. Whether you're bombed for 100 or 1000 days, the only thing that keeps your defense going is maintaining and sustaining your logistics. The rest will take care of itself.

lol. Excellent. Please brush up on tactics that are completely obsolete and useless. What he should be doing is studying the changing battlefield in Ukraine. War is changing. Soldiers are changing. But anyway, read up on punji sticks and put traps.

Let's get something clear, Venezuela is not Vietnam and this is not 1973... 90% of the Venezuelan people want this piece of shit out! And not just him, his whole criminal organization. And no, they will not negotiate their way out after all they have done. .

The US doesn’t have to worry about troop morale, as they will grant citizenship to anyone willing to join the military.

Long held secret. The Chinese were also helping, fighting and advising the Viet Congs fight the Americans during the Vietnam War. They finally publicly stated that during the latest anniversary parade with the Chinese military in Vietnam

He needs to study the Revolutionary Fidel Castro Parliament and Regiment and then that of Kim Il Sung and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto as well

He should ensure that his military are not falling for CIA bribes and blackmail. That is the biggest threat.

Ho Chi Minh died in 1969 but yes his legacy helped bring that about.

Maduro needs to call up the people of the world to help defend the Venezuelan revolution.

It wouldn't hurt to also study the resistance fighters in Gaza. They are making military history. Check out @jonelmer videos on @intifada.
