Thankfully I live in Seattle, so there are quite a few Vietnamese people. Generally once you get to know them they'll open up about how the war was (to repeat) a disgrace waged for no valid reasons, accomplishing nothing except ending the lives of millions of Vietnamese people.

Of course, if some random American comes up to them demanding their thoughts on the Vietnam war they might have a different answer.

You should consider re-examining your belief in domino theory.

The largest Vietnamese communities in America (i.e. in Southern and Northen California) still universally fly the South Vietnam flag. You can often see this flag flown with the American flag.
