[tampadave9]

The North Vietnamese & Viet Cong were in blantant violation of Cambodia's nutrality & were using Cambodia as a staging area to launch raids into South Vietnam. They killed many South Vietnamese & American troops. Was there a better idea to deal w/ those ruthless Communist bastards?

@snakes3425 They let them come in cambodia and laos later became communist

@tampadave9 Americas bombing raids, napalm, agent orange and search n destroy missions killed more vietnamise.

what a liar!!!

[spongebobbignob]

Nixon was a lying, Murderous Bastard who secretly ordered mass bombings of Cambodia, eventually dropping more bombs indiscriminately over that country than were ever dropped over any country during the second world war. Cambodia was entirely innocent of anything but the secret bombings and thousands of innocent Cambodian lives lost eventually created complete turmoil in Cambodia and gave rise to the Kmer rouge and pol pots genicidal regime. The rest is history and this is fact! Shame on America!

Nixon, although unpopular, was very intelligent in how to deal and convince the general public.
