>>Our focus was on the Russians at that time.<< The justification was the domino theory, which was always crap. Only the paranoid right wing who always saw boogy men everywhere e.g. Joe Macarthy, John Birch society, Hunts, right wing military folks like Curtis Le may. The Viet Nam war was two things: One it was shoring up the French puppet government after they lost in Din Bin phu. 2) Misunderstanding Ho Che Minh, who was educted in Europe and liked democracy, by our brain dead right wing military who only saw a communist north viet Nam and could never tell the difference between socialism and communism to begin with! LIke I was going to follow those clowns orders-lol? But above all, when has the right wing military ever been right? Had Kennedy listened to Curtis Le May and the other right wing military they would have gotten us into a nuclear war with russia for gods sake.
