Never mind that the whole war was a crime in the first place, I guess.
"Sure he was robbing a bank, but that guard pointed a gun at him! That makes the killing justifiable!"
Well, it might. But under the circumstances, no, it doesn't.
- jgalt212 3y agoFair enough, but that's a separate question from the matter at hand. LBJ escalated Vietnam and then bugged out. Then Kissinger and Nixon had to clean up his mess. Of course, they could have done a better job, but I still posit that taking the war into border lands of Cambodia was not a war crime.
