They were young once and were concerned about our young people unwillingly being drafted into the Vietnam War.
We couldn’t point on a globe where Vietnam was.
But the news gave us a daily count of the American war deaths.
People were dying for a cause they didn’t understand.
It was the communist USSR versus the capitalist America.
People were willing to kill or get killed without understanding what the Vietnam War was about.
Our parents told us it was American to fight the Vietnam War.
Many of us didn’t come back home.
There is a monument that lists all the dead in the Vietnam War.
The same thing is happening in Ukraine today.
There are Americans joining the Ukrainians to fight Russia.
They have no idea how corrupt Ukraine is.
They are not political but are willing to place their lives on the line because they are stupid in politics.

In 2014, George Soros took credit for overthrowing Ukraine with the help of the CIA and their hired mercenaries.

In 1968 Vietnam was attacked by the North Vietnamese communists in the Tet offensive. The North Vietnamese attacked the South in the winter of 1968 and suffered heavy losses. The communists lost 48,000 men, America lost 249 men and the South Vietnam lost 500 men.

Walter Cronkite: “Well you’ve got a fine story. But I’m not going to use any of it because I’ve been up to Hue. I’ve seen the thousands of bodies up there in mass graves and I’m determined to do all in my power to bring this war to an end as soon as possible.”

People should be worried about paying their bills, their child’s grades, keeping their children away from drugs, protecting their children from sexual predators in school.

The fact that Joni Mitchell and Neil Young’ attacked Spotify only shows their ignorance in how the
Democrats are killing people in regime change wars of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Syria and Ukraine.

Neil Young was a Canadian citizen, then. “Anti-war” was somewhat faddish. It was also an area ripe for exploitation by communist cadre in America. See the Weathermen.
