"Why after nearly nine years and the sacrifice of nearly 50,000 American lives is the United States still bogged down in Viet Nam? Why has the Viet Nam war become the longest conflict in American history? Why is a first rate military power like the United States unable to achieve victory over a tenth rate power like North Viet Nam. The answer lies in a policy of deliberate treason in the biggest places. NIXON reaffirmed this treason of policy on May 14, 1969 when he declared his regime had ruled out the possibility of a military victory over the Communist enemies in Viet Nam. Of course it's impossible to win a war as long as the Commander-ln-Chief is stabbing his own men in the back with such a policy. But then a political opportunist like NIXON would not want to appear so extreme as to demand a victory in Viet Nam. He would rather maintain his modern image and keep big business profits up at the same time by sacrificing the lives of thousands of young Americans in a never ending no win war."
