religious extremism as in launch more wars to end war sounds like something ripped straight from orwell's one thousand nine hundred four back in december tom pointed out the flaws in the strategy and told us all how we can really end islamic extremism around the world. on this day back in one nine hundred seventy two the united states military was conducting a massive bombing campaign in north vietnam the biggest air raid for u.s. forces since world war two it was informally known as the christmas functions at the time however americans didn't know that another bombing campaign took place over into china into china as well it was kept classified until two thousand the purpose of the secret bombing was to attack sanctuaries of north vietnamese insurgence in cambodia it didn't work and insurgents kept streaming across the border but the bombing did do however is succeeded in destabilizing the cambodian government at that time creating a huge power vacuum and paving the way for pole pot and the genocide of well over two million people lessons learned more war never brings about peace now let
