0:00 Introduction
3:00 War in Vietnam (1945-1946)
4:27 First Indochina War (1946-1954)
10:27 Increasing American Involvement
15:26 The War Expands
35:29 Legacy of the Vietnam War
The Vietnam War was the longest war in American history up to that point, only surpassed by the War in Afghanistan in 2021 lasting six months longer. The war dramatically hurt the reputation of the United States. It hurt…uh…the UNITED STATES quite a bit, too.
Today, the Vietnam War is seen as pointless. A big freaking mistake, based on lies, that led to millions of innocent people dying. It was a civil war that many say the United States had no business being a part of. Unlike the Korean War, the United Nations wanted nothing to do with it.

    the worst atrocity committed during Filipino-American War was the assassination of General Luna. Luna was the only capable General that the Philippines Army has, he was assasinated by his very own president, Emilio Aguinaldo.

    *HOW COME NOT ONE PROFESSIONAL SPACE FLIGHT EXPERT AGREES WITH YOU ''MOON HOAXTARDS ?* Were all 400,000 scientists, engineers and technicians who were involved in the Apollo Moon Program bribed or threatened into silence ? How did that world-wide cover-up work exactly ? Did everyone who earned a degree in aerospace engineering, or became an astronaut get a visit from the Men In Black, warning them not to talk about the Apollo fakery ? And what happened to those who refuse to cooperate ? Were they murdered ? Were they zapped by that little flashy thingy the MIB used to stealthily reprogrammed their memories ? And how come NASA was so inept when producing all those photographs ? So clumsy in concealing the ‘fakery’ ? How come only people with no significant aerospace qualifications see all those alleged ‘anomalies’ in all those video recordings, film and photos ? While those who actually worked on the Apollo Moon Program have no doubt whatsoever about the reality of the SIX Moon Landings ? Is it really believable that unskilled amateurs can find real anomalies that the experts in the field have failed to notice ? And isn’t it rather arrogant for Moon Hoax theorists to imply that by watching a few UA-cam videos and looking at a few low-quality photos, they can outsmart an astronaut or an aerospace engineer with years of practical experience ? Talk about being self-delusional! Get real ! *Paolo Attivissimo author of MOON HOAX: DEBUNKED*

That would be a Appeal to ignorance because you didn't verify by checking other writings or talks or interviews to see if they said what Shapiro said. Btw Im not a Shapiro supporter just pointing out what you said here.

    Thats not what manslaughter is. You literally just described self defense again. Voluntary manslaughter is intentionally killing someone without planning and under certain mitigating circumstances. Coming home to find a man plowing your wife. Its a way for a jury to have a lesser charge to fall back on when its believed a jury would not convict the person of first or second degree homicide. Involuntary manslaughter is when it wasnt intentional, but the action could be considered negligent and grave bodily harm could be seen as a reasonable outcome. None of these are self defense.

    The fact is ALL of the pro-Electoral college people do so out of craven partisanism. Since 2000 the republicans have been incapable of winning without it. Evidenced by the fact that in 24 years democrats won popular vote every year but one (2004). There’s no argument for the EC beyond “my guy loses if we don’t have it”.
