42. Weren't the NVA considered legal combatants? |

IIRC, "Hanoi" Jane Fonda posed with soldiers, not insurgents. She didn't pose with any Viet Cong AFAIK. The NVA soldiers in question were manning AAGs used to shoot at planes dropping tons of explosives on civilian populations and infrastructure (illegal acts cf the Geneva convention), not bombing those populations themselves.
In that respect at least, it seems to me you're making an apples-oranges comparison.
