Fighting a Just Cause

If America had not fought in the Vietnam War what would have happened?  North Vietnam would have taken over easily, and they would have spread communism around the world, and that’s what we didn’t want to happen.  If America had just sat there and did nothing communism would be a popular thing by now and the idea of spreading communism around wouldn’t sound like such a bad thing.  If we did not fight Vietnam would be united by the North, and they would takeover Thailand, then Malaysia, and then Singapore.  Whilst not being faced by an opponent the communistic Vietnam would have be given a huge boost, and the citizens would see that nothing can stand in the way of communism. The citizens would then feel satisfied or encouraged that communism could really work.  This could lead to more violence the Vietnam War itself, and cause destruction on many people’s lives.  All of the surrounding countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia would have been ruled by the communistic Vietnam.  We would have been faced with many opponents if America had not fought in the Vietnam War.  With this said if we had not faced Northern Vietnam head on with our ally Southern Vietnam, the war could have drastically been worse rather than fighting them.

These are many of the reasons why America had fought in the Vietnam War, and continue to find it be a just cause to fight.  Northern Vietnam was too dangerous to be left alone, and could have spread communism around the world.  With communism being spread around the world it could have been terribly dangerous for other countries to lose their freedom.  America has also finished its responsibility as a nation to help Vietnam, and give them financial or military aid however they can.  Also we would lose the confidence of other nations to believe in us, and give us aid when we will need it.  Fighting this war was the best the choice we had to stop communism in its tracks, and to continue living a peaceful life.
