Admiral James Stockdale, Most honorable

It seems the mainstream media is once again leaving out tiny little details. Admiral James Stockdale died yesterday and his bio has been all over the news. Except for one important incident that relates to todays events. Admiral Stockdale was one of the pilots during the Gulf on Tonkin incident in Vietnam. He basically said there was no incident. It was made up. This incident which reportedly put us into war with Vietnam was all a lie. Admiral Stockdale is quoted as saying "there was nothing out there. Nothing but nigh, black sea and american firepower"
This incident gave then President Lyndon Johnson the means to go to congress to empower him with warpowers against Vietnam. The House voted 100% for it and the Senate 98 to 2. Strikingly similar to todays events. With a brain dead media and limp congress. Sadly history repeats itself and we all suffer the consequences
