Vietnam War / The War We Could Not Win -- Why It Really Ended
[ send
me this essay ]
In this insightful 9 page paper, the writer discusses how utterly defeated the
U.S. was by its enemies in Vietnam and how unable the America military was to
protect itself from guerrilla warfare. It is argued that it was actually a
combination of factors that led to U.S. withdrawal from Nam and no one singular
event, group, or person was exclusively responsible. President Nixon played at
least some role as did the wartime protesters, but neither achieved what we are
commonly led to believe. The protesters were unsuccessful in changing the
attitude of American politicians and the Presidency was unsuccessful in
achieving any worthwhile conclusion to the War. In short, the U.S. was left with
nothing else to do but withdraw. Specific events and political controversy from
that troubled era are discussed in great detail. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
