It shouldn't have happened, but we didn't know what the situation was over there. If we HADN'T gone to war the public probably would have crucified the president for being weak on communism. Of course a war that tries to put a vicious dictator in the place of a beloved leader just because the dictator isn't communist is a bad idea. We also didn't take into account that the vietnamese were largely farmers, and didn't give a flying fuck about money.
It was inevitable really.
