Bastard Dick Nixon also sabatoged the paris peace talks in 1968 so he could get elected.
LBJ’s ‘X’ File on Nixon’s ‘Treason’ | Consortiumnews
here is one important paragraph in there that needs to be looked at.because Nixon did not end the war four years earlier than he could have.not only were 20,000 more murdered by him,but over 110,000 as well.
Before U.S. participation in the war was finally brought to a close in 1973 — on terms similar to what had been available to President Johnson in 1968 — a million more Vietnamese were estimated to have died. Those four years also cost the lives of an additional 20,763 U.S. soldiers, with 111,230 wounded.
To keep his Wall Street campaign funders, profiteering from the Vietnam War, Nixon committed treason ---- listen to Everett Dirksen agree with LBJ here:“This is treason (click here to listen) Dirksen's agreement, i.e. "this is treason" comes at about 4:25 of the tape.
This from the Election Treason thread;
It can never be known for sure if LBJ's peace initiative would have been successful, but LBJ's peace initiative was well on it's way to being successful when Nixon sold us down the (Mekong) river.
LBJ and Everett Dirksen were in bi-partisan agreement: Nixon committed treason and the Vietnam war continued for 8 years.
The next day, Oct. 29, [1968] national security adviser Walt Rostow received the first indication that Nixon might actually be coordinating with Thieu to sabotage the peace talks. RostowÂ’s brother, Eugene, who was Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs,
wrote a memo about a tip from a source in New York who had spoken with “a member of the banking community” who was “very close to Nixon.”
The source said Wall Street bankers – at a working lunch to assess likely market trends and to decide where to invest – had been given inside information about the prospects for Vietnam peace and were told that Nixon was obstructing that outcome.
“The conversation was in the context of a professional discussion about the future of the financial markets in the near term,” Eugene Rostow wrote. “The speaker said he thought the prospects for a bombing halt or a cease-fire were dim, because Nixon was playing the problem … to block. …
“They would incite Saigon to be difficult, and Hanoi to wait. Part of his strategy was an expectation that an offensive would break out soon, that we would have to spend a great deal more (and incur more casualties) – a fact which would adversely affect the stock market and the bond market. NVN [North Vietnamese] offensive action was a definite element in their thinking about the future.”
In other words, NixonÂ’s friends on Wall Street were placing their financial bets based on the inside dope that JohnsonÂ’s peace initiative was doomed to fail. (In
another document, Walt Rostow identified his brotherÂ’s source as Alexander Sachs, who was then on the board of Lehman Brothers.)
