Some in the US even argued for using nuclear weapons on Vietnam, out of frustration with the lack of progress with conventional war.
Imagine how that would have gone -- dropping nukes on the Vietnamese in order to "save" them from Communism.
Thankfully saner minds prevailed.
Yup. Henry Kissinger was a big part of that nonsense, along with a whole bunch of equally sinister stuff. The cluster bombings of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Korea were in many ways directly the result of his machinations.
That reminds me . . . I need to watch Dr. Strangelove again.
