Why do people call the Vietnam War "Americanized war"?
【正确答案】:In the United States, beginning from Kennedy, every administration sought to contain both Communists in the south and from the north. American money began to pour into South Vietnam, and American advisors were stationed there. But the South Vietnamese government was corrupt and repressive and had no support of the people, especially the peasants.
If the United States wanted to carry on the war and prevent the loss of Vietnam to the Communists, it had to take over the fighting itself. So gradually, the war was “Americanized,” that is, the war was fought with American money, weapon, and soldiers.
