Why were there so many australians opposed to Australia's involvement in the Vietnam war?

For the same reasons anti-war sentiment was rampant in the US; the military draft. If the war continued on, those protesters might be the next draftees! 19,000 Australian draftees fought in the Vietnam War. The sooner the war ended, the better the chances were of NOT being inducted into the military.

How did the USA Risk War with Russia because of Vietnam War?

Analogy; the communist family: Mess with the child (North Vietnam) and sooner or later the big brothers (USSR/Red China) will enter the fray. The longer the war, the more chances taken, the more mistakes made, sooner or later it all catches up to the participant. The Soviets had technicians assembling the original radar and SAM sites. They also had merchantmen unloading their cargo ships in Haiphong Harbor. Soviet submarines were patrolling in the same waters as the US Navy. In reality, the chances were pretty slim of USSR involvement, but a chance none the less. A far greater chance existed of Red China's involvement; they got involved before during the Korean War in 1950. There were "several" Chicom MiG duels with US jets during the Vietnam War; usually involving the Chicom border, as the Communist Chinese border was "right there!" Accidently straying into it was almost un-avoidable. More than one US jet or propeller driven warplane locked horns with as Chicom interceptor.

'What options were available to President Johnson To President Nixon What were advantages and disadvantages?

The options were to attack North Vietnam and its sanctuaries in Cambodia far more aggressively and sooner than eventually happened, and also to not negotiate with North Vietnam, since Hanoi repeatedly faced collapse in the war until the US foolishly let off the military pressure in hopes of kick-starting peace talks, which North Vietnam saw as weakness by the US. The advantages were manifest - defeat the enemy. The disadvantages were feared to be Red Chinese involvement, except Red China was more frightened of escalation than the US was; it was not until it saw that the US would not press to win that Red China (and Soviet Russia) was emboldened enough to station troops in North Vietnam and increase military aid.
