In the late 1960's, the United States' involvement in Vietnam was causing major problems in the United States. Nixon stated that soon, "new leadership will end the war and win the peace in the Pacific." However, he was not extremely specific on how exactly he would go about ending the war in Vietnam. In the United States, little was known about the bombings of Cambodia. Aside from the leaders of our country, not many people had heard about the thousands of Cambodians that were dying each and every day. However, the hardest task was keeping the secret.
