It sounds like you missed the issue on Vietnam. Which was that


Nixon and Kissinger supposedly sabotaged peace talks that were right at the finish line so they could keep running on an anti-war message and not let LBJ say he resolved the conflict.

That and illegally bombing Cambodia and sending troops into that country and Laos (which horribly destabilized the whole region and led to other coups and an actual genocide) seem to be the bigger beefs, not being one of several administrations involved in Nam.

If SDH shares thoughts on this I’d say read them.
