mcnamara will have a list. the targets have been moved up from first 2nd air division that is running the show. we always hear about seventh air force. that will go down to honolulu moved to the pentagon and to to the state and go back to the jcs and that will be in mcnamara's hands and take this list of this is what we want and this is why and they will have a discussion. that discussion starts expanding. those discussions have missing the advisor. this is a later period of time when they general is sitting on it. where are these attacks coming from? it is a combined effort. it is not a joint event. we have yankee station, the carrier group sitting of the coast that usually has three carriers that are doing the proposal -- reprisal of peers arrow. we've got bases in thailand. those are the main areas where the fighters and tankers are coming out of. that is where they were coming into the north. i say it is not really joint, it is joint. you have the navy and air force doing attacks but how they break it up is

in early 1965, he'll start meeting with robert mcnamara during lunch. he'll have a list. this list of targets has been moved up from first second air division that's running the show. it's going to be in his hands. now they're going to take this list of this is what we want to do. this is why we want to do these targets. they're going to have a discussion among the three of them. pretty soon that starts expanding. usually what's missing any kind of military advisement. this is from later time when general wheeler is sitting on it and invited later. it's a combined effort. we have the group sitting off the coast that's usually got three carriers there. the navy portion of it and the bases in thailand. that's where these guys are come i ing. i say it's not really -- it's joint. you have the navy joint attacks. you have air force attacks. one that we're not familiar with today. you can see one, two, three, four, five. the air force and some the south enemy's air force will get this routes are going into one. the navy gets two, three, four and air force gets five and 6a. i th

why does he agree with mcnamara's advice? because we cannot forget the vietnam war, this conflict so far, is housed in this overall cold war. there's a memory, and it's interesting what party johnson is part of, the democratic party. the democratic party is still reeling a little bit, bristling at the idea that when tong wins the civil war in china, that the democratic party gets blamed for the loss of china. that we saw what happened in the korean war. this korean war, this korean conflict will definitely be on johnson's mind because the thought is, we don't want to get in that situation again. and remember when we talked about the korean war, specifically the advance beyond the 38 up to the chinese border and what was the response from the chinese? so, the americans are thinking about the korean war, especially johnson, the idea that maybe the chinese can get involved. when we had our lesson on cold war and s.a.c., the cuban missile crisis, the idea that the world was on the brink of exchanging nuclear weapons, getting in t

mcnamara, who we discussed last time picasso in the language or, by the way, that mcnamara has of this report, they talks about a graduated military response. gradualism. this goes with the overall ideas of the cold war, and how they will contain communism, usually ideas of flexible response that we read about in slide 4. >> this gives you an idea of this graduated response practices all personnel. in this conflict. obviously, we have already looked at that period of advisory -- the numbers going up from 61 through 64. 62. we already have an increase in the advisory role, and not only talking about ground forces, but in those numbers, we see the graduated response and support by air forces. so, this matches their doctrine. the graduated response. again, similar concepts have already alluded to is what is affecting johnson and his decision? why does he agree with mcnamara's advice? because we cannot forget that the vietnam war, this conflict so far, is part of the overall cold war. there is a memory, it is interesting, up -- what party johnson is part of the democratic party pick the de

mcnamara said that vietnam has a momentum of its own and it has to be stopped. and it's true, once you start something, it is a lot harder to stop. the reasons why we got in are important, but i think equally important, the reasons why we stayed in. and the succession of american leaders who kept it going even though it was really built on a house of cards. >> i wanted your reflections on the caller prior. said poorly treated not only then, when he came back, but up to present day. >> he said nobody cared. he goes back to the idea of nobody's watching. nobody is in charge. nobody is the author of this moment. and what one of the things i did and two people i wrote about went back to vietnam. back to the beginning of where this all happened and that provided some sense of reconciliation with their younger selves. and the other caller mentioned, you know, when you travel the streets, this is the american war, of course. in vietnam, it's not called the vietnam war. >> we have george on the phone. what would you like to say or ask? >> caller: thank you. i would like

it was the fault of the politicians like next and and johnson and mcnamara. host: thanks for sharing your observation. experience, what do you take from his comments? guest: he seems to have a great deal of empathy for the other side, which is not really the other side. a couple of people i interviewed , he was sitting in his airline seat of the person next to rank the bell and said would like to be moved. i could hear this. do i look like a killer? i want to stress about everyone had this experience. we have this ongoing debate about how these guys were treated. my friend came home. someone took him out to dinner with he was hitchhiking. they were coming home to a changed america. did you want to add to that? guest: i wanted to jump then about that because it such a critical point about how the veterans felt they were received. said, no one story fits everyone's experience. there may not have been much literal spitting as you might think, but there was a sense of they came home and no one thanked them because we didn't win the war. it's that unfinished busin

the papers allowing mcnamara to deliver a sensitive and a nuanced portrait. [applause] thank you for having me. this opened up the doors when the "boston globe" assigned me to cover politics. it was in a smaller setting as i recall but what i remember if it was a great refuge to figure out exactly what was in the tax reform package that i was supposed to be covering. i don't think i ever did actually figure that out. but this is a wonderful sort of place to hide as a reporter. in 1984 it was also the year that ronald reagan presented the presidential medal of freedom. i don't actually remember that and that is sort of surprising because if a kennedy sneezed in 1984 it was big news, so it must've beemusthave been my cole white house to cover it at that ceremony would i have thought about eunice kennedy shriver in 1984? i'm guessing i would have thought she is president kennedy's sister. sargent shriver's wife. maria shriver's mother. i wrote this biography in part to restore eunice kennedy shriver which is remarkable for so many things beyond the founding of t

robert mcnamara did not report this captains doubts to the president. so, the president and others believed that there had been a second attack, and it was after the second attack that the gulf of tonkin resolution was passed, which gave president johnson almost unlimited war power. >> your exhibit has the actual document, the gulf of tonkin resolution as introduced in the senate august 5, 1964, was this unanimously accepted by congress , was that unanimously passed? >> it was accepted almost unanimously. there were two who voted against it, senator wayne morris, and senator grooming. we have the tally sheet that you can see as well. >> the u.s. senate still uses a very similar tally sheet. it is the actual tally sheet from the vote on the resolution. in the center, a picture of president johnson signing a resolution in the east room on august 10 1964, in assembling the exhibit, any reason why the president made such a prominent display of signing that resolution? >> i don't really know the answer to that question. i imagine that when you are putting th

at one point, mcnamara said in a memo that the vietnam war had acquired a momentum of its own and itmust be stopped. that is true. once you start something, it is a lot harder to stop. the reasons we got in are important, but i think equally important, the reasons we stayed in. there was a succession of american leaders who kept it going even though it was built on a house of cards. >> doug stanton, i want to get your reflections on the caller prior. he said poorly treated, not only then when he came back, but up through present day. >> he said nobody cared and goes back to the idea that nobody is watching. nobody is really in charge. one of the things i did and people that i wrote about is went back to vietnam, kind of went back to the beginning of where this all happened. that provided some sense of reconciliation with their younger selves. another caller mentioned -- or lynn did -- when you travel the streets, this is an american war, vietnam. it is not called the vietnam war. >> we have george on the line from titusville, florida. george, thanks for taking part. what would you li

didn't you find it surprising that mcnamara just starts crying at one of their meetings? if we would only do more bombing and he just breaks down. again, he's on the verge, and he's on the verge of a nervous breakdown, he's moving out of the white house to be president of the world bank. but i think this sort of sums it up quite well. johnson's tired. exhausted. but here's the problem. you've got to answer, and he asked the joint chiefs and he asked wheeler in particular, if i give you 206,000 more, can you guarantee me a much better situation? their answer was what? do you remember? did they guarantee victory? what did they guarantee? do you remember? they guaranteed that we would be able to hold on to a few more provinces a little longer, and if we didn't send these troops over, those province we just as well walk away from. is that what the president wants to hear with 206,000? where is he going to get these people? call up your reserves and the national guard. why does the president not want to do that? >> it would include a lot of the people who had been -- [ inaudib

mcnamara was a numbers guy. the whole body count thing. so we feed the body count and then mcnamara looks at all of this and looks at the numbers from that side and that side and then the american numbers. we can reach the magic formula at one point where you will be able to declare victory. that is a problem with body counts. in an american combat unit, you get steak one night if you have a good body count. so maybe you will be tempted to inflate the body count. right? orals if you happen to have killed accidentally someone who was a civilian, to avoid the repercussions you might say well, that was actually an enemy combatant. that was the problem with all of this. when you rely on numbers, they can be easily manipulated for whatever reason. it gives you a complete distorted picture of what's going on. >> basically, the technical analysis is the war of attrition. >> kind of. but as they were mentioning, there was no front. you just kill. it is not about territory. you just kill people and then you go wherever to kill more people. that is

he's a numbers guy, mcnamara is a numbers guy. the whole body count then -- we feed the body count and mcnamara in d.c. can look at all of this and look at the numbers from that side and that side and then the american numbers and then he can reach like a magic formula, at one point where you'll be able to declare, victory. and that's also by the way the problem with body counts. if you're an american combat unit, you get steak one night, if you have a good body count. right? so maybe you'll be tempted to inflate the body count. or else, if you happen to have killed accidentally someone who was a civilian, to avoid the repercussions, you might say well that was actually an enemy combatant. that's the problem with all of this right? when you rely on numbers, they can be easily manipulated for whatever reasons and give you a completely distorted picture of what's actually going on. jake? the world war i's war of attrition, then? >> as cole was mentioning, there's no front, there's no, you just kill. and then you kill, it's not about

i saw the plaque of that, of an american who tried to kill mcnamara.sidered a hero in parts of vietnam. host: let's get back your phone calls. fred from austin, texas. where and when did you serve? caller: i served in 1970-71. of combat infantryman out carried the m-16 machine gun in the bush, the mountains and the rice patties. who iscombat infantryman over there and suffer through all of that, the one thing that really irked me, the politicians were making the rules of engagement. toward the end of my tour we could barely defend ourselves. coming back from admission to the rear for a couple of days, we would see that civilians that were working there in the mess halls that were hired, they were vietnamese. we carried the enemies scouts. these were captured prisoners that were converted into scouts to come along with us. they want the most trustworthy -- they were not the most trustworthy. we had our backs to the wall and we had no way to protect ourselves as the rules of engagement changed for political reasons. if you weren't there you put down on p

mcnamara, who left.ean rask with someone who was a very capable figure, a southerner, like johnson. and he had a very close relationship with johnson and rusk who became the national security advisor in 1968. meant that rusk on the one hand it certainly committed to the vietnam war, wanted to help johnson in that effort. but also was increasingly conscious that things weren't working out very well there. that didn't diminish his support for the war, but it did mean that he himself again to look for other issues and he accomplished quite a bit and policies with western europe because elizabeth mentioned charles de gaulle and the president of france pose a direct challenge to the president of united states and that required a great deal of finesse and diplomacy to try to mend those breaches and to try and keep nato from falling apart. dean rusk was one of the major figures in trying to work that out. even though vietnam did work out well for him, he did have some other significant compliments. host: in nor

these were the scenes at the airport as steve mcnamara's players touched down in france — they beat warringtone cup yesterday. no team from outside england had ever won the trophy. serena williams has responded to french open organisers whose new rules would see her unable to wear the ‘catsuit‘ she wore at roland garros earlier this year. the suit was designed to help reduce the chances of blood clots, after complications during childbirth last year... obviously, the grand slams have a right to do what they want to do, but i feel like... if and when or if they know that some things are for health reasons, then there's no way that they wouldn't be ok with it. i've since found other methods. when it comes to fashion, you don't want to be a repeat offender! it will be a while before this even has to come up again. that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening, but coming up next it's click. florida, america's sunshine state, and home to the us‘s

mcnamara is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. he's about to be replaced by clark clifford. transition has already started. didn't you find it surprising at one point in one of the meetings, mcnamara just starts crying when they start discussing this. well, if we'd only do more bombing and he just breaks down. he's on the verge of a nervous breakdown. he's moving out of the white house to be president of the world bank. but i think this sort of sums it up quite well. johnson's tired, exhausted. because here's the problem you got to answer. and they ask him, he asks the joint chiefs, and he asks wheeler in particular, if i give you 206,000 more, can you guarantee me a much better situation? their answer was what? do you remember? did they guarantee victory? what did they guarantee? do you remember? they guaranteed that we'd be able to hold on to a few more provinces for a little longer, and if we didn't send these troops over, those provinces, and we just as well walk away from them. these were northern provinces. is that what the president wants to hear with 206,000? where i

and defense secretary mcnamara had basically -- this hadn't come out yet, the pentagon papers hadn'tome out yet, but they basically had decided they were not going to win the war and the best they could do was a stalemate, and that's what they were dealing with at that time. the war has to be dealt with in three ways. one is the military, which jim was part of, one is the policy, which is completely different, and the third is society and what was happening in the united states at that time. >> and that's outlined in your book, "they march sbud sed into sunlig sunlight" and i want to put three components on the table. you had madison, wisconsin, you had dow chemical and the napalm bombings and you had vietnam. tie the three together. >> it wasn't just napalm, it was also agent orange that dow made. the protest at the university of wisconsin in october of 1967 was the first student protest that turned into a violent confrontation on a campus. and it was against dow chemical company recruiting on the campus at a time when some students were vehemently opposed to the war. there is an in

i thought mcnamara, it didn't take me long to think he was a psychotic liar.i got involved in a story about procurement and airplanes and he was lying about it. he was losing more than he wanted to admit so i knew there was trouble. within a month of being at the pentagon i was going after him about not telling the truth and it led me too those guys in the pentagon. those officers with four stars who were very worried about the lying in the war and i began to write some stuff. i just wrote stories for those writing stories for neutral organization with a little bit of edge. >> but you do know. >> what happened one day. we probably got the better at 3:00 o'clock, and my first encounter. against all the sunday papers by six so he called me and the conversation went like this, around 645 in the morning, i thought maybe it was the desk in new york, anyway, he said have you seen page 19? i said hell no and we agreed to meet. i began to take talks and walks with him. he would come and get me, even on weekends when i was not at the pentagon or whatever, and we would

them stayed until the end and that included mcnamara who left.ean rusk was someone who was a very capable figure, southerner like johnson, and he had a very close relationship with johnson and also with walt rostow, who became johnson's national security adviser during this time in 1968. that meant that rusk on the one hand was certainly committed to the vietnam war, wanted to help johnson in that effort, but was also increasingly conscious, i think, that things weren't working out very well there. that didn't diminish his support for the war but it did mean that he himself began to look for other issues and he accomplished quite a bit, for example, in policy toward western europe, which as elizabeth mentioned, de gaulle, the president of france, had posed a direct challenge to the united states, and that required a great deal of finesse and diplomacy to try to mend those breaches and to try to keep nato from falling apart. dean rusk was one of the major figures in trying to work that out. so even though vietnam didn't work out well for him, he d

so friendly with robert mcnamara and cabinet secretaries. when you fry to internalize it.a great job of looking and sound like her. what were you aiming for? >> i was aiming, really, to, to portray a woman of, of my mother's generation. who -- confronted a moment in the 70s. when everything changed for women. it was sort of of a breakout moment. at the time this film takes place. 1971. just a week and a half in, in that time. ken kent state was happening. social upupheavals. on the fulcrom of a change there were no female cs of any industry. companies at that time. very, very hair. she was in the position she inherited it. her father owned the paper. passed tight her husband. she was basically 45 years old. her husband died. the mantel of "the post" and 3,000 employees and everything. fell to her. the clip we will play. katherine graham at breakfast with you. tom hangs. benjamin bradley. the editor of "the washington post". are you sure we are striking the right tone here, ben. oh, we are going to do this a again. stiletto party coverage. you are losing female leadership,

catalans dragons head coach steve mcnamara has told the bbc that victory for his side in the challengein southern france, but across europe. catalans became the first non—english side to win the trophy after beating warrington in yesterday's final. i think it will be massive. it has been a turbulent time over a number of years for the sport in france. this generally will grab national headlines in france that not only in france, that in spain, the catalan region and barcelona region in spain. they are proud we have represented catalan at wembley in the challenge cup final. that in england, being the first foreign tea m england, being the first foreign team to win in english domestic competition raises the profile in england or so. a big win over newcastle could put chelsea top of the premier league later. newcastle fans might not be too optimistic of victory though with the club still without a win this season and with protests planned at st james's park later, over a perceived lack of investment in the playing squad. i have a lot of sympathy for our fans, because they are really good.

catalans dragons head coach steve mcnamara has told the bbc that victory for his side in the challenge just in southern france, but across europe. catalans became the first non—english side to win the trophy, after beating warrington in yesterday's final. i think it will be massive. it has been a turbulent time, over a number of years for the sport in france. this genuinely will grab national headlines in france but not only in france, but in spain, the catalan region in barcelona region in spain. they are proud we have represented catalan at wembley in the challenge cup final. in england, being the first foreign team to win in english domestic competition raises the profile in england, also. serena williams has responded to french open organisers whose new rules would see her unable to wear the catsuit she wore at roland garros earlier this year. the suit was designed to help reduce the chances of blood clots, after complications during childbirth last year. obviously, the grand slams have a right to do what they want to do, but i feel like... if and when or if they know that some thi

they're coached by former england boss steve mcnamara and he told us what he changed when he arrivedis, you know, they drink wine and they eat bread at every meal. it's not conducive to an elite performance if you're doing that every meal. it's small little changes implemented to our group, some bigger changes also to make sure that we come in line with... we're playing in an english competition against the elite players in england and we have to match those standards. every time we come up against them, we show a huge amount of respect for the opposition. we have done that all this year. taking that aside, so are we, we are good football team and we have lots of senior players who have played in challenge cup finals, played for their country and understand what it looks like. hopefully they can play a part in terms of the nerves, and take away that nervous energy, is specially playing at wembley. to today's premier league action. manchester city will be aiming to maintain their 100% start to the season when they travel to wolves in the day's early kick—off. meanwhile, two sides stil

and the senator who ran against lyndon johnson eugene mccarthy used to talk recently about maybe mcnamara wanted to change the color of the corpses but in this village they were brief this is this company that hadn't seen the enemy they have been sniped at and they'd fallen in the pits with sticks pull of poison they'd lost about twenty or thirty people have their hundred and they want to pay back and they were told by the cia official contract employ bad intelligence some are you going to go into a village and you going to see the enemy there so they got ready to go to their credit to be kill or be killed for america right they had seen no combat really and they fly in and there's nothing there woman making five hundred fifty sixty men women no one no men old men women children and they began to round them up and executed what i could write about the they did things like throwing up babies and catching them alive and they and it's i mean and raping like crazy i didn't. so much trouble with that story because i didn't know what i was getting into when i first. i started it and the horror

catalans dragons head coach steve mcnamara has told the bbc that victory for his side in the challengeance, but across europe. catalans became the first non—english side to win the trophy after beating warrington in yesterday‘s final. adam wild was at wembley. allez, allez, allez! from the south of france, the catalan dragons, officially in sang—et—or, blood and gold, perhaps no more fitting colours for a rugby league final. not in great numbers, but in great hope, becoming but in great hope, of becoming the first french side to conquer this english cup. warrington wolves stood in their way, but failed to block the channel out wide, with catalan breaching defences early. the french side‘s determination to make their mark on history, all too clear, starting the second half as they did the first, this time, wilianier extending their lead. warrington finally got the luck they needed when george king gathered this fumble, setting up an agonising finish. catalan just clinging on for an extraordinary victory. and so, after 122 years, the catalan dragons have done what was once unthinkable. t

. >> except for morrison the guy who tried to kill mcnamara also has a plaque there. >> that doesn'turprise me. >> yes. >> but john's getting shot down, i guess there are reasons that they might put a plaque there. but he gave great service and he has a lot of grace in him about what the implications of war are. >> explain that story. >> well, i don't know too much about it, but i saw the plaque of that, of an american who tried to kill mcnamara and considered a hero in parts of vietnam. >> let's get back to our phone calls. fred is joining us from austin, texas. where and when did you serve, fred? >> caller: i served 1970, 71, airborne combat around the areas of valley, and carried the m 61 machine guns in the rice paddies. and one thing i'd like to point out is to the combat infantrymen who suffered through that, one thing that really irked me, and that was that the politicians were making the rules of engagement toward the end of our tour, we could barely defend ourselves. then we come back from a mission, we would see the civilians that were working there in the mess hauls that w

it wasn't mcnamara's hundred thousand. for the mentally disabled but they drafted people exceptionally low iqs as a way to a way to fill up the troop levels. but they honored themselves. >> any other questions?? one more? >> but things have changed. and one thing about it but so what i'm saying is that you had to volunteer to go to jump school but then they pay for the test. and to get into special forces. then a great bunch of guys. so they sent us down to the dominican republic. so the first thing we did was fail the people. >> as i'll sl make a good special forces operation. [laughter] >> and with that unconventional warfare. and with those professional bank robbers so how do you finance that organization soon as they got done with that they classified it but they physically searched us. >> speeseventeen speeseventeen. [inaudible conversations] [inaudible conversations]

mcnamara knew it was bad reporting. he knew that the attack did not take place. lyndon johnson knew it. but johnson went on the air and declared that the attack had taken place. and therefore, the u.s. would bomb north vietnam. that started the whole idea that the u.s. would be using air power to go directly against north vietnam. it started with the tonkin gulf resolution passed right here in congress. and at that time, it said that the president of the united states can take any action anywhere in defense of america's interests against the communists. and that was a big statement. but most of the reporters did not, i'm sorry to say, pick that up. i think the people at cbs knew it and the people at "the washington post" knew it, but that was it. host: you began saying that the tet offensive proved that the american government was lying to the american people. why? guest: at that time, it was already 25,000 american deaths into the war. we had been experiencing it over a period of three years, how it was to fight that war. you could take a mountaintop and lose 10

and wrapping up our look at some of the los angeles times' nonfiction bestseller list is michelle mcnamara's firsthand account of her search for the golden state killer. some of these authors have appeared on booktv. you can watch them on our web site, booktv.org. >> booktv recently visited capitol hill to ask members of congress what they're reading this summer. >> well, i'm a great fan of detective/mystery stories, and i sort of tend to find an author that i really like and then make my way through almost all of their books sort of in a sequence of time, which is especially possible with being able to download onto my ipad. so right now i had a friend tell me about an italian author who was writing about an inspector on the island of sicily. and so i downloaded the first book, and they are such fun. i find all these mystery detective novels that take mace mace -- take place in different countries, so it's not just about the story, but also the place and the people that are part of it. and this particular author, his last name is camaleri, has so much -- it's very italian. the people that a

how much of an impact has the former england boss steve mcnamara had on this dragons side?taken time for him to put his stamp on catalan dragons but you can see it now. they are disciplined off the pitch and on the pitch now and they fully deserved their place at wembley today. they were in their first challenge cup final back in 2007. —— fully deserved. they lost then, how big would it be for the game if a french side would be to win? huge, rugby league is often seen as a northern england sport and now we have cata la n england sport and now we have catalan dragons in the final for the second time in 11 years and this time they can win it. in 2007 they we re time they can win it. in 2007 they were tourists, they were happy to be at wembley, but you can hear what's coming out of the camp at the moment, they want to win at wembley and they want to create history for the catalan side. warrington will go into it as heavy favourites, jamie, do you think they will be able to cope with that pressure? yeah, i think they well, this is another side that made wholesale changes. they
