Why shouldn Australian troops have been involved in the Vietnam War?
Australians should not have been involved in the Vietnam war because it was a war of aggression. We and the USA had no business bolstering an unpopular and corrupt government in order to interfere with the democratic process be it to our taste or not. It was a war that could not be won and as it turned out was lost many people were killed as a result of the war and the effects are still felt by the Vietnamese as a result of chemical bombing. But most all because nothing was gained for any one but those that produced the weapons and the politics surrounding the war. One should not aid a bully because the bully helped protect you once.
