After WW2 France reoccupied Vietnam which had been largely liberated from Japanese rule by the Viet Minh, led by Ho Chi Minh. After the defeat of the French in 1954 the U.S. became increasingly interested in Vietnam and, in the longer term, involved.

Was colonialism a benefit to mankind?
Yes. It was one of the greatest ideas man has devised. Colonialism was in fact simply taking control of the territory of people that had something that the colonialist wanted without paying a fair price for it. it has led to a situation today where the old colonial borders are leading to one war after another as the traditional tribes try to reassert their sovereignty using force with weapons supplied by the old colonialist countries. Colonialism was piracy of the first order and is still l the cause of hunger death and disease the world over. Colonialism was a curse to mankind.
