This instructional video summarizes the influence of Walter Cronkite's criticism of the Vietnam War. It demonstrates how Cronkite, known as the "most trusted newscaster", came to doubt the value of the war after broadcasting images of the failed Tet Offensive that countered the Johnson administration's portrayal of successes. When Cronkite publicly criticized the war effort, President Johnson recognized that by losing Cronkite he had lost the support of middle America, as Cronkite's criticism helped reshape public opinion and move the US towards withdrawal from Vietnam.

1968
This document summarizes the major events and developments of 1968. It discusses the Tet Offensive that turned US public opinion against the Vietnam War, President Johnson's decision not to seek re-election after doing poorly in the New Hampshire primary, the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy that sparked riots and protests, disorder at the Democratic National Convention over the Vietnam War, and Richard Nixon's election in November by appealing to those seeking domestic peace and order.
Reasons for the Cold War in Europe 1.1 [sample presentation for 5EM1]
The USA and USSR became Cold War enemies despite being WWII allies due to their long-term ideological differences of capitalism vs communism, with the USSR establishing satellite states in Eastern Europe and the USA implementing policies like the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan to contain Soviet expansion and support countries resisting communism. This period from 1945-1949 saw the emergence of opposing military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact as each country sought to strengthen their sphere of influence and ideological hold in Europe and beyond.
Cold war Part 1
The Cold War was a period of hostility between the United States and the Soviet Union from 1945-1991. The main reasons for the Cold War were the ideological differences between capitalism in the Western world led by the US and communism in the Eastern bloc led by the USSR. This led both sides to form military alliances and engage in a nuclear arms race in a strategy known as containment and brinkmanship to influence other countries and prevent the spread of the opposing system. The Cold War ended in the late 1980s as communism fell in Eastern Europe.
reasons the usa lost the vietnam war us public opinion
The document discusses changing public opinion in the US regarding the Vietnam War. It notes that initially most Americans supported involvement to stop the spread of communism. However, from the mid-1960s, public opinion began to shift against the war due to high casualty numbers, graphic TV coverage, concerns over the draft, and anger over environmental damage. Growing anti-war protests lowered troop morale and made recruitment difficult, limiting the actions the government could take and contributing to the US failure to defeat North Vietnam despite superior numbers and equipment.
Origins Of The Cold War
The document summarizes key events at the origins of the Cold War, including rising tensions between the U.S. and Soviet Union after WWII; Stalin extending his power by installing communist governments across Eastern Europe, known as the Iron Curtain; the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan aiming to stop communism's spread; the Berlin Airlift resupplying West Berlin after the Soviet blockade; and the formation of NATO as a military alliance between Western nations.
vietnam war background information
During the Cold War between the US and USSR after World War 2, the US became involved in the Vietnam War to prevent the spread of communism in Southeast Asia. The US feared that if Vietnam became communist it could lead other countries in the region to also become communist in a domino effect. Although the US initially only provided financial support, over the years its involvement transformed into sending soldiers to directly fight against communist forces in North Vietnam and the Viet Cong in South Vietnam. However, despite being a global superpower, the US was ultimately unable to win the Vietnam War, withdrawing from Saigon in 1975 in a humiliating defeat.
An overview of the cold war
After WWII, tensions rose between the capitalist United States and communist Soviet Union as they emerged as the two dominant superpowers. Both sides sought to spread their influence and demonstrate military superiority, engaging in nuclear and conventional arms races. Key events in the Cold War included the division of Germany and establishment of communist states in Eastern Europe, as well as hotspots like the Korean War, Berlin Wall, Cuban Missile Crisis, and Vietnam War as the two sides backed opposing forces around the world.

Reasons the USA lost the vietnam war - USA's international isolation
The document discusses the international isolation of the USA during the Vietnam War and how this contributed to their defeat. It notes that while some countries like South Korea, Australia and New Zealand sent troops, overall support was less than hoped for. America received negative media coverage that opponents used for propaganda, reducing further support. A lack of global support forced the US to provide most money and soldiers, which it could not sustain, unlike North Vietnam which received aid from the USSR and China. European allies like France and the UK declined requests to send troops, despite having Asian colonial experience that could have helped.
Start of Cold War
The document outlines key events of the Cold War, including the ideological differences and historical tensions that caused the US and USSR to become rivals after World War 2. It discusses the immediate impact of WW2 on Europe, defines cold war, and analyzes impacts of US-USSR rivalry through examples like the Korean War and Cuban Missile Crisis. It also describes the formation of military alliances like NATO and Warsaw Pact, and communist organizations like Cominform and Comecon that divided influence between the two superpowers.
Origin and causes of the cold war
The Cold War originated between the U.S. and USSR after WWII as they emerged as two superpowers competing for global influence and ideological dominance. Tensions grew as Stalin sought to spread communism in Eastern Europe against the wishes of the U.S. and UK. The ideological differences between capitalism and communism, as well as the arms race between the two sides, exacerbated the conflict and divided the world into two spheres of influence, leading to the emergence of the Cold War.
Vietnam Grp P Point
1) The Vietnam War was dubbed "The Television War" as it was the first war to have extensive television coverage with very little censorship.
2) News crews filmed on location in Vietnam and relied on the military for transportation, which gave officials influence over the footage that was broadcast.
3) As the war dragged on, television coverage began to include more graphic images of dead and wounded soldiers, as well as interviews that conveyed a sense of low morale, which may have contributed to declining public support for the war in the US.
My lai and protest
In March 1968, the My Lai massacre occurred in Vietnam, where U.S. soldiers killed hundreds of unarmed Vietnamese civilians. However, the story did not become public until November 1969. When it did leak out, it further damaged the U.S. reputation around the world. The document discusses how initially the U.S. military and media supported the war, but attitudes changed between 1967-1968 as negative reports and images emerged, exemplified by the Tet Offensive and Walter Cronkite's denouncement of the war. It also notes that President Lyndon Johnson started feeling pressure and would need to compile a report on the My Lai massacre and its potential to further damage his reputation.
The Cold War
This document provides an introduction to a lesson on the Cold War. It outlines that students will learn about how the Cold War affected both the world and the United States specifically by exploring various sources and completing individual and group assignments. It establishes the main players in the Cold War as the United States and Soviet Union and that each feared the other. Students are divided into teams representing either the US or USSR and will take on roles within a simulation.
Korean War
The Korean War began in June 1950 when troops from North Korea invaded South Korea in an attempt to reunify the Korean peninsula under Communist rule. The United States led United Nations forces to defend South Korea from the invasion. After initial success pushing the North Koreans back, China entered the war to support North Korea, and fighting became stalemated near the original border. An armistice in 1953 established a demilitarized zone at the 38th parallel, dividing the Korean peninsula much as it had been after World War II.
Korean war-Poon and Chung
The Korean War began in June 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea in an attempt to reunite the Korean peninsula under communist rule. After initial successes, United Nations forces led by the United States pushed North Korea back near the Chinese border. China then entered the war and pushed allied forces back south. An armistice in 1953 established a demilitarized zone near the original border, dividing Korea at the 38th parallel. Over two million soldiers and civilians lost their lives in the three-year conflict, and North and South Korea remain divided and in an uneasy ceasefire to this day.
Korean War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea, backed by the Soviet Union, invaded South Korea. The United States led UN forces to defend South Korea and push the North Koreans back towards the Chinese border. However, China then sent troops to aid North Korea, forcing US-led forces back to the 38th parallel dividing line. An armistice was signed in 1953, leaving the division between North and South Korea unchanged.
Cold War (2013 edition)
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945 to 1991. Reasons for the Cold War included differing political ideologies between capitalism and communism, as well as distrust between the two superpowers following World War II. During the Cold War, the US and USSR engaged in proxy wars, arms races, space races, propaganda campaigns, and espionage as each sought to contain the influence and military strength of the other. The Cold War ended in the late 1980s and early 1990s with the fall of communism in Eastern Europe and dissolution of the Soviet Union.
The korean war1
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, leading the United States to intervene on behalf of South Korea in order to contain the spread of communism. After initial setbacks, U.S. General MacArthur launched a surprise attack that pushed North Korean forces back to the border, but then advanced further north, which prompted China to enter the war in support of North Korea. The conflict ultimately ended in a stalemate along the original border between North and South Korea.
Cold war definitions and causes
The Cold War was an ideological struggle between capitalist democracy led by the US and communist authoritarianism led by the USSR from 1945 to 1991. Each sought global influence through alliances, aid, and propaganda, dividing the world into two hostile camps without direct military conflict. Nationalism and imperialism differed from traditional forms, focusing on loyalty to ideologies and using influence rather than colonies. Both superpowers spread their spheres of influence while fearing encirclement and revolution from the other.
End of vietnam presentation
The Tet Offensive of 1968 involved surprise attacks by the Viet Cong on major South Vietnamese cities during the Lunar New Year, marking a critical turning point in the war. In the US, the Democratic party split over the war as anti-war sentiment grew. Richard Nixon was elected in 1968 on a promise to pursue "Peace with Honor" through Vietnamization and secret peace negotiations. Despite Nixon expanding the war through bombing of Cambodia and Laos, protests against the war intensified after US troops were sent into Cambodia in 1970. The 1971 publication of the Pentagon Papers further damaged public support for the war by revealing government deception about US involvement.
Tet offensive
The Tet Offensive of 1968 saw surprise attacks by Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces across South Vietnam on the Tet holiday, as they attacked 68 cities and 50 towns. Though the offensive was eventually defeated, it lasted for up to two weeks and was bloody, with high casualties on both sides. The capture and mass burial of 1,000 civilians in Hue demonstrated the ferocity of the fighting. While a military defeat for the Viet Cong and North Vietnam, Tet had a powerful psychological impact on Americans, undermining confidence in the war and leading many to question how to exit Vietnam, with President Johnson replaced by Nixon two months later.

Vietnam notes
- The document provides a timeline and overview of key events in the Vietnam War from 1946 to 1975, including the U.S. decision to support France in recolonizing Vietnam after WWII, the French defeat at Dien Bien Phu in 1954, escalating U.S. involvement and bombing campaigns under Presidents Eisenhower and Johnson, and the Tet Offensive that turned U.S. public opinion against the war.
- It discusses tactics like search and destroy missions, use of Agent Orange, and the growing anti-war movement. The war deeply divided the U.S. and took a heavy toll in lives until the final U.S. withdrawal and fall of Saigon to North Vietnam in 1975.
United States History Ch. 16 Section 2 Notes
Mao Zedong and the communists gained power in China after World War 2, as Mao built support by promising food to the starving population and communist forces dominated the country. In 1950, North Korean troops invaded South Korea, starting the Korean War. The US and UN forces intervened to defend South Korea. By 1953, the two sides agreed to a ceasefire that remains in effect today, leaving Korea divided at the 38th parallel. The Korean War increased US military spending and commitments worldwide and set a precedent for future presidents to send troops into combat without Congressional approval.
Coldwar
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945-1991. The two superpowers established opposing military alliances - NATO and the Warsaw Pact - and engaged in an arms race including developing nuclear weapons. This rivalry led to regional proxy wars in Korea and Vietnam as the US sought to contain the spread of communism through military interventions and economic aid like the Marshall Plan. Tensions escalated during events like the Berlin Blockade and Cuban Missile Crisis, bringing the world close to nuclear war before relations gradually improved in the later Cold War era.

The Vietnam War
The United States became involved in Vietnam in the 1950s to contain the spread of communism in Asia according to the domino theory. The US supported the French in their colonial war and later the South Vietnamese government against communist insurgents. Over time, US involvement escalated and led to widespread domestic protest as the war dragged on without clear success. Key events like the Tet Offensive turned public opinion against the war. The Vietnam War ended in 1975 with a communist victory in Vietnam after the US withdrew.
Vietnam ii (1)
The Vietnam War lasted from 1956 to 1973 between North Vietnam and South Vietnam. The United States backed South Vietnam in an attempt to prevent the spread of communism in Southeast Asia, believing that if one country fell to communism then surrounding countries would too. Heavy U.S. involvement escalated the conflict and led to increasing domestic opposition to the war. Over 58,000 U.S. soldiers died and millions of Vietnamese before a peace agreement was reached in 1973 and the U.S. withdrew from Vietnam.
Vietnam
Johnson did not run for re-election in 1968 because:
- The Vietnam War had become increasingly unpopular in the U.S. and Johnson faced strong opposition to his handling of the war.
- The Tet Offensive in early 1968 showed that the U.S. was not winning the war as decisively as the administration claimed, undermining support for Johnson's leadership.
- Growing anti-war protests and divisions over the war weakened Johnson's political standing and ability to lead.
- With his popularity declining due to the war, Johnson likely felt he could not win re-election and instead decided not to run again in order to help unite the country and Democratic party.

Johnson did not run for re-election in 1968 because:
- The Vietnam War had become increasingly unpopular in the U.S. and was dividing the nation. Protests against the war were widespread.
- The Tet Offensive in early 1968 showed that the U.S. was not winning the war as quickly as expected, despite large numbers of troops deployed. This undermined public support for Johnson's leadership and policy.
- Johnson faced significant dissent within his own Democratic Party over his handling of the war. Anti-war candidates like Eugene McCarthy and Robert Kennedy challenged Johnson for the Democratic nomination in 1968.
- With his popularity declining due to the war, Johnson likely felt he could not win re-election.
The Vietnam War
The Vietnam War grew out of Vietnam's long history as a French colony. After World War 2, Vietnam was divided into a communist North and democratic South. The US backed South Vietnam in an attempt to contain communism, believing that if South Vietnam fell, other countries would too. Despite US bombing campaigns and search/destroy missions that caused massive casualties, the Viet Cong waged a successful guerrilla war. US involvement became increasingly unpopular as the war dragged on. Ultimately, the US was unable to stop the communist takeover and North Vietnam reunified the country in 1975.
Ch 19 Sec 2 Vietnam
The US became involved in Vietnam to prevent South Vietnam from falling to communism, fearing this could lead other Southeast Asian countries to also fall (domino theory). While initially sending advisors, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution allowed greater US action after two American destroyers were attacked. There was division at home between those favoring and opposing the US presence in Vietnam. Fighting was difficult for the US due to jungle terrain, lack of large targets, and challenges identifying Viet Cong opponents. A surprise Tet Offensive by Vietnamese Communists in 1968 despite a ceasefire caused heavy casualties on all sides. The US later began gradually transferring responsibility for fighting to South Vietnam through a Vietnamization process while still providing support.

While initially sending advisors, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution allowed greater US action after alleged attacks on US destroyers. However, the US struggled against an elusive Viet Cong enemy hidden in jungles, without clear targets. Growing anti-war sentiment at home was exacerbated by the surprising Tet Offensive, though the US began gradually transferring responsibility to South Vietnam through Vietnamization while still providing support.

While initially sending advisors, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution allowed greater US action after alleged attacks on US destroyers. However, the US struggled against an elusive Viet Cong enemy hidden in jungles, without clear targets. Growing anti-war sentiment at home was exacerbated by the surprising Tet Offensive, though US losses were much lower than Vietnamese casualties. The US then began withdrawing forces through the Vietnamization program while still supporting South Vietnam.
Ch. 19 Sec 2 Democracy vs Communism
The US became involved in Vietnam due to fears that if South Vietnam fell to communism, other Southeast Asian countries would follow suit under the "domino theory." While initially sending advisors, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution allowed the US to take military action. However, the US struggled against opponents in Vietnam due to jungle terrain and lack of clear targets, as well as growing dissent at home. The Tet Offensive of 1968 was a major surprise attack that turned US public opinion against the war, leading to the Vietnamization policy of gradually withdrawing troops while continuing support for South Vietnam.
Remebering Viet Nam
The document provides an overview of the key causes and events of the Vietnam War. It describes how Vietnam was divided in 1954 with US-backed South Vietnam and Soviet-backed North Vietnam. As fighting escalated, the US became increasingly involved through the 1960s due to the Domino Theory. Major events discussed include the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution of 1964, the Tet Offensive of 1968, and the fall of Saigon in 1975. It also examines the domestic anti-war movement in the US and the human costs of the war.
Ap vietnam
The Vietnam War lasted from 1956 to 1975 and involved North Vietnam and the Viet Cong fighting against South Vietnam and the United States. It began as an anti-colonial rebellion against French control of Vietnam and escalated into a proxy war between the U.S. and Soviet Union amid the Cold War. Despite massive U.S. military involvement and bombing campaigns, the Vietnam War ended with a Communist victory in 1975 after the fall of Saigon. The war was highly controversial in the U.S. and had lasting domestic political and cultural impacts.
6. vietnam revision 2
The document provides information about key events and factors related to the Vietnam War, including:
1. Increased US involvement was driven by the Domino Theory and desire to contain communism after the French loss at Dien Bien Phu in 1954.
2. Escalating US troop levels and bombing campaigns throughout the 1960s failed to defeat the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces, who effectively used guerilla tactics and received support from villagers.
3. Protests against the war mounted in the US as the costs of the war rose without clear progress, hurting public support for continuing the war.
Ch22 sec1&2 new2012
Here are potential responses to the assignment questions:
1. Soldier morale dropped as the war dragged on because they saw no end in sight to the fighting, they were frustrated by guerrilla tactics, and many turned to drugs as a coping mechanism. Specific examples include soldiers fragging officers, increased drug use, and disillusionment with the war effort.
2. The US military relied too heavily on superior firepower but did not understand guerrilla warfare or win over local support. They could have focused more on counterinsurgency, protecting civilians, and political solutions in addition to military tactics. Search and destroy missions and use of napalm/Agent Orange backfired by alienating the Vietnamese people.
The cold war full story s. white
The Cold War began in 1945 after World War II and lasted until 1991. It was a period of intense rivalry and hostility between the United States and the Soviet Union, who emerged as the two dominant superpowers after WWII. Both nations increased military spending and built up nuclear arsenals, risking global destruction through nuclear war. The conflict included numerous proxy wars around the world and heightened tensions, such as the Cuban Missile Crisis that brought the world close to nuclear war. In the late 1980s, reforms in the Soviet Union under Gorbachev led to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the eventual dissolution of the Soviet Union, bringing an end to the over 40-year long Cold War.
Chapter 51
The document summarizes increasing U.S. involvement in Vietnam under three presidents - Truman, Eisenhower, and Kennedy - who provided increasing military aid to fight communism. It then discusses how President Johnson escalated U.S. involvement through bombing campaigns and covert raids, leading to the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution that allowed further expansion. Despite opposition, Johnson decided to send troops to directly engage in combat in Vietnam, Americanizing the war.
Vietnam.Honors
The document provides background information on the origins and escalation of US involvement in the Vietnam War between 1940-1968.

Michael Ring Cold War
The Cold War began with the division of Germany after World War 2, with West Germany allied with the US and East Germany with the USSR. This division escalated tensions between the two superpowers. The US policy of containment sought to prevent the spread of communism. Both sides engaged in espionage and an arms race featuring nuclear weapons in a balance of terror known as Mutually Assured Destruction. Major events of the Cold War included the Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis, and Vietnam War. Periods of détente saw arms control agreements but tensions continued until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989.

The Vietnam War lasted from 1959 to 1975 between North Vietnam and South Vietnam. Some key events included the Tet Offensive in 1968, the My Lai Massacre in 1968, and the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution in 1964. The US became increasingly involved to stop the spread of communism under the policy of containment. Though a military failure, the Tet Offensive turned US public opinion against the war. The war ended in 1975 with a North Vietnamese victory and the reunification of Vietnam under communist rule.
World War 1 vs. The Vietnam War
The document compares and contrasts World War 1 and the Vietnam War. It discusses the causes, weapons, impact on soldiers, casualties, and outcomes of both wars. For causes, it mentions imperialism, militarism, and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand for WWI, and the Cold War and France's desire to retake North Vietnam for the Vietnam War. Both wars had psychological impacts on soldiers and resulted in numerous casualties, though WWI had almost double the casualties of the Vietnam War.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
