The fact that you poisoned you own troops too, just goes to show how criminal the US military is.
The US were the enemy, not the Vietnamese, they just wanted independence.

Stopping Communism was the right intent, but.. I think even the people involved in planning the Vietnam War (like Robert McNamara) now agree it was wrong.
Was the Iraq War right or wrong? It's probably too soon to tell. A vicious madman was deposed. Certainly, our military intelligence was faulty, but Saddam purposely deceived the world to appear stronger than he was.
Frankly, I think justification for attacking Iran is much stronger than either Vietnam or Iraq. They have been at war with us since 1979, often fighting with proxies. We've all had enough of their threats.
