  • "They call upon the U.S. to supply American boys to do the job that Asian boys should do..We are not about to send American boys nine or ten thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves."

    – Lyndon Baines Johnson

    Your administration cost our nation over 60,000 lives.

  • Did he just say, "War is Peace"? Talk about Big Brother.

  • Things have not changed much have they?

  • Yup. The attack that never happened. Nice. Israel did attack the USS Liberty & what did Johnson do?? Not a thing. Johnson--just another piece of crap power-hungry lunatic with the power to order people to their deaths. Disgusting. And what do the Americn people do when they find out the people at the highest level of gov't are lunatics & liars? Not a thing. In fact, they keep on believing! Now what does that say about the average "American"? 9/11--another lie & they just lap it up!

  • google: finding the Gulf of Tonkin

    everyone always knew

  • THE BIGGEST LIE SINCE THE PROPAGANDA WAR ON THE US CITIZENS TO CONVINCE THEM INTO SUPPORTING THE EUROPEAN WAR IN WWI.

  • @arttoegemann and front page of the New York Times August 5: "no casualties, no damage" the Pentagon.

  • Good news. This video is now on page 2 of Google's links to "Gulf of Tonkin".

    "There were no US losses."

  • @sgtdanny69148 I hope you don't get your history from video games...

  • These LBJ videos are really hard to fap to
