Pretty much what it says in the title, just looking for some recs for books on Vietnam, preferrably not too focused on the American War but if anyone has a good book on the Pheonix Program I'm interested in that too

Thanks!

It's convinced me that the cold war was basically the continuation of Nazi aggression against the Soviet Union. The American government was using the statements from these Nazi "scientists" (sadistic murderers who recorded their crimes/"experiments") to justify the expansion of the military industrial complex and the development of missiles, biological/chemical weapons, and other weapons. Some of these nazis were literally continuing their work in the same labs in Germany (illegally btw) under supervision of the American military before they were shipped off to America.

Then they were writing memos for the department of war fear mongering about the Russian threat in order to justify dumping ludicrous amounts of money into weapons during what was supposed to be peace time.

These were guys who were freezing people to death, killing them with pressure chambers, hanging, beating to death, starving, working them to death, and because the frothing psychopaths in the military decided they needed a leg up on the soviets they were aquitted (if they saw a courtroom at all) and given free passes to live as free men.

Fucking Werner Von Braun directly oversaw the development/production of V-2s, 20,000 people were murdered on the production line, and he got a cushey job developing more rockets for the US for the rest of his life.

Edit: the book is called Operation Paperclip: The Secret Intelligence Program That Brought Nazi Scientists To America by Annie Jacobsen

It's already 2/3 beans

I bet it would really blow up

Where are the dudepeas? I can't be making woke hummus!!

I sure as hell don't, even before I was politically educated I didn't wear one for religious/cultural reasons. I've never engaged with Remembrance Day beyond what I've been forced to do at school.

It did lead me to getting dumped once which is funny in hindsight, talk about a bullet dodged
