I tried to resist the temptation, but I am weak, so I just can't let this statement go by.
You do remember reading about all the Vietnamese, millions of 'em, who were anti-communist, who thought that a communist government was not a self-determined legitimate system. And you do remember that they fought pretty hard to prevent the communists from taking over. And you do remember that they lost and the communists took over by violent force, tanks, artillery and all that. You do remember that don't you? With all that in mind, your use of the phrase "Quests for liberty" in the paragraph quoted is rhetorical perversity.
