* «Den største fiaskoen ved 30. april 1975 er mangelen på forsoning, fordi kommunistpartiet "sneket seg unna" det ærefulle forsoningsløftet. Isteden gjennomførte partiet i realiteten en ''okkupasjonspolitikk'' overfor Sør-Vietnam og tok ''hevn'' på Republikken Vietnam (Sør-Vietnam) ved hundrevis av skrekkelige fengselsleirer som kalles «omskoleringsleir».» ([http://www.voanews.com/vietnamese/blogs/tin/ngay-30-thang-4-04-30-2011-121020749.html Blogg 30. april 2011])
* «The roots of the Vietnam War — its all-encompassing and underlying nature — lie in a confrontation between two ideological worlds: socialism versus capitalism for some, totalitarianism versus democracy for others. It was a conflict born of the Cold War…»
* «[The American anti-war movement] was essential to our strategy. Support for the war from our rear was completely secure while the American rear was vulnerable. Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio at 9 a.m. to follow the growth of the American antiwar movement. Visits to Hanoi by people like Jane Fonda and former Attorney General Ramsey Clark and ministers gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reverses. We were elated when Jane Fonda, wearing a red Vietnamese dress, said at a press conference that she was ashamed of American actions in the war and that she would struggle along with us.»
* «The conscience of America was part of its war-making capability, and we were turning that power in our favor. America lost because of its democracy; through dissent and protest it lost the ability to mobilize a will to win.»
