Assistance is Futile

There is nothing that can be done in opposition to the truth. Can the same be said for our efforts for the truth?

Take it to Spirituality Forum, Spanky.

Truth can be hidden or obscured for a time by those who oppose it or wish to distort it. One example
that comes to mind is the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964, which "justified" U.S. intervention in Vietnam.

To help which effort.. hiding the truth or investigating the situation and ultimately revealing the truth?

Originally posted by FreakyKBH
The latter, of course.

In the case of Tonkin, the truth (that there was no attack against U.S. warships) was revealed
many years later. I don't recall the details of who and how, but it was too late to change the
course of history. An effort was made to discover what really happened, but the war was over.

"History" is full of them....even relatively recent history. Man doesn't learn from it does he?

The us would have come up with another inncodent, if Tonkin never happened.
