So to recap, the US was meddling in the affairs of another country (woah big surprise), sent it's warships into that country's waters, blew up 3 of their boats when those boats retaliated for the incursion, then went BACK into their waters and got spooked by a storm so we decided to start dropping napalm on them.
fullmetalfunk nice one
fullmetalfunk No. The "incident" never actually happened... It was just a scapegoat to escalate war in S. Vietnam.
"Described the attack on two U.S. Warships as a deliberate aggression". Yeah! Why you put your country so close to our Warships!?
“No actual visual sightings by Maddox. Suggest complete evaluation before any further action taken" Captain Herrick
It always seems like a North v South thing,why can't we get an east vs west?
Terminator76 east germany west germany??
Ah you got a point
Terminator76 have you noticed the ones in the bottem or south always lost Ex. The South lost civil war, and South Vitenam got taken over by the commies
Terminator76 Germany?
Deustileaf What about S. Korea?
Thanks to you guys i got Straight A+ on 3 Tests at this point now i gotta wait to get on the ww1 and ww2 topic :D i love these videos they inform me of so much
Excellent grades, awesome Simple History could help :D Mind if we share this on our facebook page?
What knowledge
Simple History These videos would have been helpful back in highschool. 😐 Still love them :)
Uncle Sam i agree
Uncle Sam you should say yes to what simple history said
Was this an example of yellow journalism simliar to that of the Spanish-American War.
ReconPro obviously
Just an excuse to go to war. :(
ReconPro I mean, who else could've put those naval mines there?
Actually my grandpa's father happened to be in port when that happened... He knew that it was very suspicious but he didnt tell anyone in fear what USA could do to our family... he lived all his live terryfied I can tell for not beeing able to tell the truth. Later on, when he was old decided to go to the newspaper and tell his secret. His story never reached neither the USA for obvious reasons and whole Spain cauze people didnt want to remember the 'traitor war' or the 'humiliation war' they called. Still to this day we keep that newspaper...
ReconPro Yes

I love these videos so much. I even got my teacher into sharing them during class sometimes. They are so good. Keep up the good work!!
Let's blame the Maine on Spain!
I love your videos there really well made. Keep it up!
they entered Nnorth Vietnamese water with warships -> viets answer (with all rights i'd say) -> Deliberate aggression.
flawless USA foreign politics logic
Awesome video as always. My father fought in Vietnam, it was a brutal war.
Amazing video keep up the good work
History should be like this, not fucking reading page by page with no pictures. 5 years ago when I was in 8th grade, my history teacher ONLY used a textbook called "Ways of the world" and god damn I had such a hard time understand and remembering. History films and animation are so much better... this channel is awesome, but I wish you guys came out during 2012-2013 school year lol

Great vid simple history could you please make a video about the Battle of Britain (WW2)?
damn, hiring mercenaries to attack the north, then entering into the war while creating a false attack.. beautiful.. I love also the vocabulary used.. "drowned into the Vietnam war" :'( poor America, such a war victim

Trivia: What were the two US jet models in this episode?
Simple History The fighters looked a lot like F8 Crusaders during the torpedo boat scene, but during the attack on Northern targets they looked like A4 Skyhawks
2:50 the woman just couldn't give a shit😂😂
I believe they admitted that the Gulf of tonkin never happened, it was exaggerated to get us into the Vietnam war. Also I believe the captain of the ship was the father of the singer jim morrison, lead singer of the doors.
