An Overview of The War on Terrorism





The Vietnam War was prosecuted by men who were close to Roosevelt and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and who had long voiced a desire to gain control over Indochina's oil, magnesium and rubber assets. Again a provocation was created. In August 1964, President Lyndon Johnson whipped Congress into a frenzy by claiming that North Vietnamese gunboats had attacked the US Sixth Fleet in the Gulf of Tonkin off the coast of Vietnam. ';Our boys are floating in the water,'; he cried.


Congress responded by passing the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which bypassed the Constitution and gave Johnson the power to wage war to stop attacks on Americans. It was the beginning of the real-shooting


Vietnam War. And it was all a lie. No evidence has ever been brought forward that such an attack took place. In fact, editors for US News %26amp; World


Report (July 23, 1984) called it ';The 'Phantom Battle' that Led to War';.
