Ike and De Gaulle warned JFK about getting involved with our military in Viet Nam. He listened to the CIA, and he got us involved heavily. That may have cost him his life.
JFK apparently had/allowed the CIA to kill the president of S. Viet Nam, Diem. Diem was killed!
A few weeks later in another rule 39 of Gibbs, afterDiem was overthrown and killed. Kennedy was assassinated three weeks later. “There are no coincidences!”
The link below is an excellent history of how JFK allowed the CIA and his military to go to war in Viet Nam!:

“Kennedy became convinced that Diem could never unite South Vietnam and he agreed that the CIA should initiate a programme to overthrow him. A CIA operative, Lucien Conein, provided some South Vietnamese generals with $40,000 to overthrow Diem with the added guarantee that the US would not protect the South Vietnam leader. Diem was overthrown and killed in November 1963. Kennedy was assassinated three weeks later.”
MacArthur was another who warned JFK about Vietnam. Sometimes being strong on the defense of America means avoiding debilitating deployments. Too often people seem to equate being strong on defense with expending American blood like it was water.
JFK was trying to bail out his fellow Catholics.
