I guess it sucks that the novel employed the same cop out. The movie had
a great anti-authoritarian, anti-capitalist message until that terrible
ending.

Perhaps somebody with good video-editing skills ought to clean up the
ending like fans have done the Star Wars episode 1.

INTERNATIONALISM IN PRACTICE

An American soldier in a hospital explained how he was wounded: He said,
"I was told that the way to tell a hostile Vietnamese from a friendly
Vietnamese was to shout ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ If he shoots, he’s
unfriendly. So I saw this dude and yelled ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’
and he yelled back, ‘To hell with President Johnson!’ We were shaking
hands when a truck hit us."
