>> I can tell you it won't be to depopulate hundreds of villages and kill every living thing.

John, I don't know with what degree of assurance you can tell me that.

I looked at your profile. It says 44 years old. You were 9 years old in 1968, so possibly you didn't watch TV news about the war against VietNam. Your description that I quoted above is very much what the US in fact did. It was called a campaign of pacification - Operation Phoenix. The population of hundreds of villages were relocated into camps, and agent orange dropped on large tracts of coutry-side, in order to kill everything that the VietNamese could make use of.
