In 30 years have they ever considered celebrating the US MILITARY that saved their country and American culture ?
Just wondering ?

It's bad enough they were named after a Spanish King. USA got chased out of Vietnam after cancelling their first Democratic election. Would USA media and textbooks ever like to mention this?
How about USA stop borrowing money from China too?
