Happy Belated Birthday to Uncle Ho!

[Teacher Mark 53]

Ho Chi Minh

By: Teacher Mark

In Vietnam, not long ago

There lived a man whose name was Ho

A resistant rebel, with views entrenched

He proudly announced he would not learn French

He set out to travel, always lending a hand

His dream was to live in a free Vietnam

He saw a fight coming, the people the victor

For gathering weapons they jailed his sister

He then thought Maybe theyre right!

If I learn French it will help the fight!

So learn it he did and then set sail

To places where others were victims as well

He came back years later from his journey long

Where the Japanese were now the ones doing wrong

He formed an army that fought as rebels

It taught them war at all the levels

The war soon ended and back came France

Themselves the victims of sinister plans

They refused to accept a free Vietnam

But their senseless oppression would not last long.

In 54 the French forces acted like fools

And cornered the rebels at Dien Bien Phu

For 56 days and 56 nights

The tables got turned by the rebels might

When the smoke had cleared most invaders had died

So ashamed was their general that he chose suicide

There were many who thought that the terror was over

But another invader soon sank lower...

For years and years there were sounds like thunder

Destruction caused death. in the millions by number

The skies filled with planes, the jungle with fire

The ultimate weapon was the man who inspired

Inspire he did and the tide was turned

A lesson that the crusaders had not learned

Hai Ba Trung and Le Loi

Had shown a strategy the Vietnamese employ

Invaders of this lovely land

Will meet death by a Viet hand

So let the word go ever forth

The Vietnamese will never be forced!

You can be serious? may I reminded you, there are millions of our Southern Vietnamese still living and breathing here in the US and VN , this is an insult to all of our Southerners by praising this man.

1.) The First Amendment affords me the luxury of writing whatever I want, as long as it isn't libelous.

2.) The United States manufactured the Gulf if Tonkin incident, so that it could exert control over matters best left to the people of Vietnam.

3.) I wrote it for a student of mine, who lives in southern Vietnam.

4.) I also wrote it for the thugs who demanded that I drink a shot of vodka being toasted to HCM, on his birthday a few years ago. That's my way of telling them to get bent.

5.) The only apology I offer to those displaced by the war is this: I'm sorry the elders of another American generation filled them with false promises and then abandoned a signifigant portion of them. Those that were lucky enough to escape should be thankful that they made it ton america; the place where they became our most productive and loyal minority.

and

6.) Ho Chi Minh was a hell of a leader. He did nothing that Americans wouldn't do, were a foreign interloper to appear and start dictating how things were going to be.

((((((ROTFFLMAO))))))) ...u still don' t get it do you?

3.) I wrote it for a student of mine, who lives in southern Vietnam.

WTH??? You are kidding with me right? It's okay you wrote this for your student. Please preserve this in VN. Not in OC, California.

Kiss my white a$$! Freedom of speech doesn't mean whatever you do or don't approve of is allowed to be spoken. That's called censorship. Sound familiar?

Glad to hear to hear you're getting some exercise fata$$.

Sorry gang.. I didn't realize DQ had slipped in...

[Teacher Mark 53]

BTW, do you even know his "REAL" name? And the reason why he chose HCM instead of his real name? If he's a GREAT leader, why use "pseudonym"?

In America, only criminals love to change their names. They want to hide their dark histories. (and in modern days, terrorists utilize fake/false new names to their criminal intents as well).

Vin Diesel - Mark Sinclair Vincent John Wayne (Marion Michael Morrison) - Marion Robert Morrison Bob Dylan - Robert Allen Zimmerman William Jefferson "Bill" Clinton - William Jefferson Blythe

Mark Twain - Samuel Clemens

I wish it would be true, especially right now. The current regime just turns its head and lets the communist Chinese invade and take Vietnam land as the Chinese likes.

Only if the current VC leaders are like Hai Ba Trung and Le Loi in the past. Stand up and protect the land, even if it means death!

Thanks for writing this poem, Mark. You put the MOST important point at the end!

Hai Ba Trung

When the sisters came to town

They saw invaders all around

So their smiles turned into frowns

--Chorus-

Hai-i-i-ah-iii

Hai-i-i-ah-iii Ba

Hai Ba Trung, Hai Ba Trung!

A pair of elephants they rode

Down and long and troubled road

The seeds of victory they sowed

Soon the people gathered ‘round

These two sisters they had found

Then a big battle went down

When the smoke had finally cleared

The invaders that were feared

Were driven back, so people cheered!

-Chorus-

Throughout the course of history

You will very rarely see

Two souls as brave as these

Thanks so much, thanks so much

Hai Ba Trung, Hai Ba Trung!

“Foremost, I will avenge my country,

Second, I will restore the Hung lineage,

Third, I will avenge the death of my husband,

Lastly, I vow that these goals will be accomplished”

- Trac Trung

Le Loi-Le Lai

This is the story of Le Loi

A legend told with sadness and joy

He carried a sword from the lake

Where the Golden Turtle did give and take

All hail, all hail Le Loi

Many victories he did enjoy

All hail, all hail Le Loi

He came, he saw, then he destroyed!

His right hand man was called Le Lai

You'll never meet a braver guy

The Ming surrounded; but got a surprise

Le Lai was wearing a brilliant disguise!

He opened a hole; Le Loi escaped

For the Ming it was a fatal mistake!

All hail, all hail,Le Lai

He did it knowing that he would die

All hail, all hail, Le Lai

His actions saved a thousand lives!

All hail all hail Le Thai To

A better leader we'll never know

All hail all hail Le Thai To

He was the best, history shows

teachermark11@gmail.com is my primary email address DQ, John Q. Public and any other of my less than adoring fans.

My next one is going to be dedicated to the criminals at Monsanto, for selling the by-product known as dioxin, or Agent Orange, with full knowledge of the dangers the poison produced to any and everything it came into contact with. I'll be hand delivering that one, since they're located in that place where I was born.

They also produced AO there and recently settled with the municipality where the chemical was produced...for $192,000,000. How much have they compensated Vietnam? $0. The Supreme Court has to decide if killing a foreigner by such measures is the same as killing an American, if they'll even hear the case. If the SC continues to ignore this travesty of justice, decency and good old fashioned American values, then may they all burn in hell.

seriously?

teacher mark please write us a poem or song about the "Land reform in Vietnam" in 1953-1956 in north vietnam.

Hey "Jane Fonda",

We, the Vietnamese, who enjoy freedom and democracy don't like HCM.

There are people who fought and died so you have that freedom(example, freedom of speech).

People who who grew up in South Vietnam after 1975 have to endure the propagandas on HCM and the commie party.

they are brainwashing kids to death over there.

Look like they got you too?! and now your are doing their job? do you get paid?

[xgrnberet1 19]

Do not waste your time to educate the ignorance, as I said from the beginning, if they don't get it, then they never will, anyone who worship or praise HCM , need to get a clue. You just can't teach stupid !!!!!!
