S3 Ep 11: The Tiger vs. The Elephant
Manage episode 446554866 series 3291600
In 1946, in Paris, Ho Chi Minh described the future war this way to American journalist David Schoenbrun: "It will be a war between an elephant and a tiger. If the tiger ever stands still the elephant will crush him with his mighty tusks. But the tiger does not stand still. He lurks in the jungle by day and emerges by night. He will leap upon the back of the elephant, tearing huge chunks from his hide, and then he will leap back into the dark jungle. And slowly the elephant will bleed to death. That will be the war of Indochina."
