00:00I cannot think of a more cataclysmic event than the Vietnam War.

00:11The Vietnam War is a turning point in United States history.

00:16Vietnam is a hellhole, it's Killingfield, Hamburger Hill, Kassam, My Lai Massacre, P.O.W., Vietcong.

00:25Everything happened in Vietnam.

00:31The story of the United States in Vietnam was a story of ignorance, hubris, arrogance.

00:38It tended to be evil, but I don't think it was intended to be evil.

00:44We learned how big the gap was between what presidents were saying and what they believed.

00:51We are fighting about the trade.

00:53Three years ago.

00:55I think they were sincere in what they were doing.

01:02The problem is they didn't know what they were doing.

01:05Our method of operation was called search and destroy.

01:34The anger was severe, strong, boiling, boiling.

01:46This is a television war.

01:50Seeing the graphic images marked a turning point in the American conscience.

01:55One of the major roles of the press is hold power accountable.

02:00You realize that our heroes are just liars.

02:04Many of the things that plague our society today have their roots in the Vietnam era.

02:09Our image of ourselves as the last best hope on earth was shaken.

02:16We were playing God.

02:18We've lost our moral compass and we haven't recovered.

02:21We can't forget Vietnam is with us today.
