Well worth watching. The 10 part Ken Burns Vietnam show is on Netflix now. That is a good binge show. You might even recognize some of the stuff although they do seem to be talking more about the Marines in the first few shows I have seen. Does Burns show when the command of Walter Kurtz was terminated?  They are not really addressing the covert ops in the Cambodian highlands that much. They do make some fairly critical comments about the Phoenix Program. LBJ does not come out well in this show. His own recordings are the worst evidence about the lies he was telling the American public. They are trashing Nixon now. (episode 7&8) He perpetuated the lies. They are saying he was trying for a diplomatic solution but he still widened a losing war. The parallels to Iraq and Afghanistan are striking .... and you ask me why I don't trust the government. |
