And don't forget, many of our troops behaved badly. I served there in '68 and '69 and the disrespect shown to Vietnamese civilians by some of the guys was shameful. Read Nick Turse's book if you don't believe me or want to find out more.

Why wouldn't you see this as a chance to modify and liberalize the Chinese state? Surely the more contact there is between Taiwan and China the more the ordinary Chinese will envy you and your "freedoms". The Chinese state is not particularly stable and Taiwan could play a big part in its transformation.
