#2 If they want to use the Vietnamese model, why aren't they hiring Vietnamese consultants, instead of going to the Germans? I would think that the Germans would tend to push them towards a German economic solution - IE, "you lose, the South wins, you try to get a couple pennies on the dollar for your rubble and ruins, and go to work for those who can keep you from starving. Hey, maybe one of your politicians might become prime minister in ten-twenty years, look at Angela".
