The US never learned from its past mistakes in South East Asia. It's using same #DominoTheory in their attacks on #MiddleEast under false guise of stopping the #Muslim threat from spreading.
They're still fabricating attacks & using propaganda to try to fool people.

Do not buy more lies from #TerroristUSA.

#USInvaders were guided by the #DominoTheory - if Vietnam fell to communism, so would Laos, Cambodia & all of southeast Asia. The Gulf of #Tonkin changed things a lot.

According to the USA, Vietnamese patrol boats attacked the USS Maddox moored in the Gulf. Immediately, a resolution was passed to officially engage in war. President LB Johnson, the ‘heart of the war,’ sent 500,000 US troops to South Vietnam in 1965 to fight against North Vietnam in the north and the Viet Cong in the south. He called it Operation Rolling Thunder. The campaign would rain 864,000 tons of bombs on North Vietnam over the next three-and-a-half years, killing 52,000 North Vietnamese.

In the 2003 #documentary - #TheFogOfWar - the #USgovernment admitted that they had fabricated the Gulf of Tonkin incident.

I've missed out Trump's foreshadow there in the list #Lebensraum⁩ ⁨#DominoTheory⁩ ⁨#MAGA⁩.

#GWBush, with #TurdBlossom, #Cheney and #NeoCons, when feelings were high after 9/11, did some butchery in Iraq.

#PreEmptiveWar, #WarOfCivilizations or #DestabiliseTheMiddleEast?
#GetTheOil?
Like so very much around America's second worst President, reaching for a rubic produces a shitty mess.

> US planners from Secretary of State Dean Acheson in the late 1940s to the present have warned that "one rotten apple can spoil the barrel." The danger is that the "rot"-social and economic development-may spread.
> This "rotten apple theory" is called the domino theory for public consumption.
