In '68 Dad, who had been in I Corps Vietnam for 2 years (and would stay 6 more), as an adviser, told me:

"Intel and State need deep cleaning. For far too long they have been entities unto their

own responsible to NOBODY"

Sadly, that is still true

Idaho Senator, Frank Church tried. Much was revealed,… but an overblown “Watergate Extravaganza” took center stage. (Irony; the CIA even re-used the Cuban plumbers)

Press is complicit. Operation Mockingbird, etc.

by the by, CIA, MI6, and Mossad seem again and again to be on same page.

In Sept of '63, JFK sat down with Cronkite (was on YouTube at one time)

and stated US will provide support to Vietnam but IT IS THEIR WAR

That was his death sentence.

We were stationed in Taiwan early '60s

and in '62 Spec Forces were seen traveling through Taipei en route to Vietnam

(we saw them regularly in the O club)

Later when we heard the announcement over the intercom regarding the assassination

Dad said "So begins full engagement in Vietnam"

Later in a book McNamara stated that 2 years into the war, THEY knew it was

NOT winnable

Dad told me in '68 "It never was meant to be a military win. It was always

a political chess game"

Kissinger referred to our military as: "dumb, stupid animals to be used" as pawns for foreign policy.

58,000 lives squandered and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ taxpayer$$$

NO different now

WE continue to squander precious lives and $$$$$

while political hacks wave their magic wands from arm chairs in support of

waste in

the Middle East which has forever been known as the 'graveyard of empires' for reason

You are right: it's no different now.

But I think more people know, because their eyes are open.
