True. The MPLA (People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola) gained control of Angola with significant military support from Cuban troops, who were financed by the Soviet Union. This assistance was crucial during the Angolan Civil War, helping the MPLA to defeat rival factions and solidify its power in the country following independence from Portugal in 1975.
The U.S. wanted to defeat the communist troops who were there.

We must remember that North Korea is a communist country and there every thing is done in secret as well as in fear. So the exact number of troops it has may not be known. But on its parades it shows off a lot of troops, even if they are troops for that day parade only.

To fight communism. To stop a communist nation (North Vietnam) from taking over a non-communist country (SOUTH Vietnam).
Yes he did, but in his defense he thought that the country was "on the verge of a communist uprising."
Back in 1959, North Vietnam was Communist. Until 1975 when the Americans joined the North and captured the south. Now the whole country is Communist. yes the north was communist and it now entirely communist but the Americas did NOT join the north. they went into the south to protect them from the communist because they were afraid of communist invasion as was seen in cuba with the support of the soviets, the other superpower. it wasnt until after 1975 once all the American troops had left ( referred to as vietnamization) that the North captured the south :)

President Lyndon Johnson used the Gulf of Tonkin incidents to get the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution passed. This permitted him to militarily assist any southeast Asian country that claimed to be victimized by communist aggression. He used this as justification to â??put boots on the groundâ?? (deploy troops) and begin open warfare with North Vietnam.

The U.S. was propping up an anti-communist dictator in order to keep a communist dictator out of power.
