This is a really good documentary serie about the
Vietnam War.
In my eyes it feels like one of the most unnecessary war ever. Comments
1=This video makes the whole search and destroy campaign more closely
resemble the uprooting of weeds. Was this the best strategy the top brass
could afford to come up with? I find it very surprising. 2=
3=Regardless of how anyone might feel about the war in Vietnam,
our boys were called to do a job & they did it. They are HEROES pure &
simple. They are to be commended for their efforts & praised for their
valor. What an awesome group of guys! This woman appreciates you & your
bravery more than you'll ever know! <3 By the way, has someone noticed about
the Appalachians? Where does this name come from? Who were these people? Oh,
they were native americans who got surrounded and cast off "their" lands.
The white guys claimed it for themselves, as they did with the rest of
american natives. Sometimes I think of certain people as a virus: they
invade, destroy and multiply. I'm not saying that US people are a virus, I'm
just saying that some attitudes and ways of thinking are virus-like. 4=
What were the US doing in Vietnam in the first place? Can anyone imagine
another country invading the US because of the Civil War? Can anyone imagine
them throwing napalm over the Appalachians, the Rockies, the plains and
forests?
Can anyone imagine the US under real bombardments? Everyone went tragic
after Pearl Harbor (which wasn't even close to the mainland), but it was
only a joke in comparison to Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Vietnam or Iraq.
PD: Not to mention CIA nice operations. 5=
a proper killer virus at that, not just a bit of a cold
