think harder

sure the people of america didn't understand wny they were going to war but obivously that just shows the ignorant nature of americans, they didn't bother to reasearch the reasons why they were being sent to war. they just follwed the example of a few people and campainged against conscription, they did not campaign against the war but the effects that were impigining on thier daily life. they didn't realise that the american govt were just, once again attempt to impress there ethnocentric beliefs on a country whom they belived was defensless. perhaps you should be asking your selfs why they went to war in the first place, and not just examining the effect that it had on your population in the first place. the vietnma war caused devastation throughout vietnma and the vietnamese resent the presence of the so called peace makers. the ethnicity of the american pop u lation is evident through iraq and their actions in vietnam
