On the plus side, the military industrial complex and bankers and C.I.A. made a lot of money. The heroin must flow. |

WW2 was won because the civilian population was targeted to be destroyed. After WW2 that didn't happen on such a scale. That's why wars last for decades now. |

Did you know that executives from Ford went to Russia to run their vehicle plants? They kinda had to since Stalin killed anyone that had more than three brain cells. They also worked there after WW2. My thought is that Russia and the US agreed to be war rivals after WW2 so in both countries the people wouldn't mind if the money they worked for went to the military industrial complex because of the terrible enemy that they needed to be safe from. It's all their game. |

What is Aleppo User ID: 74097063 United States 12/09/2018 02:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Instead of sending troops to just defend South Vietnam, we should have sent in a whole invasion force to take over North Vietnam. Like what we did in the Korean war. Then as soon as we overthrow the government in North Vietnam, we should have handed control of it over to the South and then immediately left the area. I know many were opposed to the war, but since we entered it, we should have been in it to win and have a winning strategy beforehand. Quoting: Fight The Power If we had done that, the Chinese would’ve sent hundreds of thousands of troops over the border into North Vietnam, just as they did in Korea when they drove us back to the demarcation line. That’s why we were hesitant and selective about even aerial bombardment of Hanoi. That is until the only way to force the North to the Paris peace table was to bomb the hell out of Hanoi and Haiphong Harbor in December 1972.

The company's founders, Herman and George Brown, won the contract to build Mansfield Dam thanks to the efforts of Johnson, who was then a Texas congressman. After Johnson took over the Oval Office, Brown & Root won contracts for huge construction projects for the federal government. By the mid-1960s, newspaper columnists and the Republican minority in Congress began to suggest that the company's good luck was tied to its sizable contributions to Johnson's political campaign. More questions were raised when a consortium of which Brown & Root was a part won a $380 million contract to build airports, bases, hospitals and other facilities for the U.S. Navy in South Vietnam. By 1967, the General Accounting Office had faulted the "Vietnam builders" -- as they were known -- for massive accounting lapses and allowing thefts of materials. Brown & Root also became a target for anti-war protesters: they called the firm the embodiment of the "military-industrial complex" and denounced it for building detention cells to hold Viet Cong prisoners in South Vietnam. Today, Brown & Root is called Kellogg, Brown & Root -- a Halliburton subsidiary better known as KBR. The Brown brothers gave a lot of money to Johnson as he sought office through the years. Also, Lady Bird Johnson owned stock in it. |
