It escalated the cold war.

That escalation destroyed EVERY communist economy that contributed to it.

15 years later, EVERY communist country that contributed to it collapsed.

20 years later, China and Vietnam would become TOP US economic partners.

The purpose of the Vietnam War was to CONTAIN communism until it collapsed.

That is what happened.
