A brief description of the Pentagon Papers for my History Class. Featuring the Songs Eve of Destruction by Barry McGuire and Bachata by Ryuichi Sakamoto.
@ChulaKirby No sir. There is a whole lot more to it than that. President Richard Nixon was giving false reasons for being at war with Vietnam. He risked hundreds of thousands of American soldiers' lives and trillions of dollars in military expenditures from 1964-69, all because he "didn't want to be the first U.S. president to lose a war".
@garkoula The song is called "Eve of Destruction."

And? I guess this was during a time when people believed politicians. Of course they lie.
