And so what if a few loyalists in South Vietnam didn't like Buddhists? A lot of American "loyalists" during World War II didn't like our entire social and economic system, because they were Communists - and in France this was even more pervasive: The Maquis were practically all Communists.
The Vietcong was in the right and the right and the US Government in the wrong, if that makes me a traitor to Fascists like you I frankly don't give a fuck.
