???? Nixon didn't start the war but ended a war that was only going to take more US life without any possibility of a victory without unthinkable genocide. It might not have been peace with honour but he was being realistic. I can't figure out why he gets criticized on this. What would his critics have done, stayed there and dropped more bombs and killed more innocent people? Withdrawing might have been a minor humiliation in US history but it wasn't wrong. Vietnam after the trauma and it coming into the international arena and prospering has proved Nixon, right, right, right!
