Betrayed by Foreign Policy Fault Line 1619–2024, US in Viet Nam 1865–1975 (Fault Line in US Foreign Policy)

Today, many voters falsely think US foreign policy has been noble since the US-Viet Nam War. For, a pervasive false claim about the US-Viet Nam War has misled many voters to unknowingly support business expansion by force overseas. The false claim is that the US entered Viet Nam in 1954. It is presented as a noble effort to fight communism.Actually, US businesses ignobly entered Viet Nam in 1865, enabled by brute force of a French invasion. A US government consular office opened there in 1889. In 1954, after decades of those US operations, the French invasion fell in defeat. So, in 1954, US leaders took over the invasion.
