The United States never technically went to war with Vietnam. It was declared a Conflict. There doesn't appear to be any outright law breaking so to speak that led up to the war. There does appear to be some "mis-leading" evidence though. The Gulf of Tonkin resolution is one example. It was this resolution that allowed military operations without declaring war.
