  10. Why did the USA fail in Vietnam? Why did the USA get increasingly involved in Vietnam? A summary Containment China had fallen to communism in 1949, and America had fought in Korea in 1950-53 to contain the spread of communism.The US president, Lyndon B. Johnson, said: "I am not going to be the president who saw South-East Asia go the way China went." Domino theory Americans believed that, if South Vietnam fell, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand - and then Burma and India - would follow. President Johnson said: "If you let a bully come into your garden, the next day he'll be in your porch, and the day after that he'll rape your wife." ARVN's weakness It was obvious the South Vietnamese could not resist communist infiltration by the Vietcong without help.In 1963, the American commander reported that the ARVN - the South Vietnamese army - were "ill-equipped local militia who more often than not were killed asleep in their defensive positions." US advisers believed that good government and an efficient, large-scale war would defeat the Vietcong. The US was attacked The North Vietnamese had attacked the USS Maddox in August 1964, and then killed US soldiers in February 1965. Johnson became convinced that action in South Vietnam alone would never win the war: "We are swatting flies when we should be going after the manure pile.“ Prioritise these reasons from most important to least and explain your decisions www.historytl.com Part One – 50 mins Section B – The Cold War 1945 -75

  35. Why did the USA fail in Vietnam? Why did the USA withdraw from Vietnam? Why did the war arouse so much opposition in America? 58,000 Americans - average age 19 - were killed. It was hard for Americans to believe that they were defending America by fighting in a war 8,000 miles away. Extensive media coverage brought all the failures and horrors of the war into US homes. Atrocities such as the massacre at My Lai undermined the moral authority of the US to continue the war. The cost of the war meant that the US president Lyndon B. Johnson had to cancel his Great Society programme of reform. The war was opposed particularly by Martin Luther King and by America's black community (because wealthier white men could avoid the draft by going to university or to Canada, and young black men were twice as likely to be killed).
