Every American should acknowlede that fact that Nixon and Kissenger was behind the bombing of Laos! This is the reason why U.S lost the war in Vietnam, and also left there Mess of littered bombies across Laos. And till this day, U.S only wants there MIA back from Laos, How about thos Bombs left by the U.S? Moral and value lost to innocent Laotian and the condition of Laos today is that cause from the Nixon campaign.
