Studs Terkel pointed out that Americans know very little of their history. We cannot forget the Vietnam War. The policies of the Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon administrations lead to millions of Vietnamese being killed as well as 50,000 American soldiers being killed. This was a war which should never have been fought. I want to present a resource for those interested in this war.

Nixon confirms that Kennedy started the war
In this tape recording of a phone call between Billy Graham and President Richard Nixon, Nixo states that John Kennedy started the war and that Kennedy also called for the assassination of South Vietnam's President Diem, which made everything much worse.
The Vietnamese people fight against the French colonizers 1950 - 1954
It is shocking to me that France had been occupied by the Germans in WWII, but after the war attempted to occupy other countries.
