There were no actual politics involved it was simply a staged preplanned 10 year boondoggle for Brown-Root, CIA drug runners and the MIC as phony as the gateway incident in which not patsy Oswald but others eliminated the person standing in the way.

It was a fake war to experiment with genocide and demonstrated that we could kill 3 or 4 million people and destroy Southeast Asia any time we want to.
