Bayan karantawa da kuma jin labaran rikice-rikicen rikice-rikicen yakin Ken Burns & Lynn Novick na Vietnam game da PBS, sai na yanke shawarar in kalli abun. Na yarda da wasu suka da kuma wasu yabo.
Shirin na farko ya fara ne tare da tunanin cewa gwamnatin Amurka tana da kyakkyawar niyyar. Ya ƙare tare da yabo ga abin tunawa a DC da jerin jerin sunayensa, ba tare da sun ambaci yawan mutanen Tsohon sojan Amurka na wannan yaki da suka mutu tun daga kashe kansa ba, yawanci mafi yawan mutanen Vietnam da aka kashe. Girman abin tunawa ga dukan matattu zai shafe bango na yanzu. Fim din yana nuna "mai aikata laifuka" a matsayin mummunan zalunci da makiya ko wadanda ba su da kullun da suke da shi wadanda suka zo suna yin baƙin ciki - amma ba za su iya magance batun shari'a ba. Halin da ake ci gaba da mummunar lalacewa ta Lalacin launi na Orange yana kusan an rushe shi a matsayin mai kawo rigima. An baiwa yawan mayaƙan yaki a kan sojoji matakan sarari marasa dacewa idan aka kwatanta da mafi yawan gaske a kan fararen hula. Hakika muryoyi masu hikima da suke tsayayya da yakin basira da ka'ida daga farkon zuwa ƙarshe sun ɓace, ta haka suna ba da labari wanda mutane suke yin kuskure kuma suna koya daga gare su. Sauran shawarwari game da abin da aka yi a maimakon yaki bai tashi ba. Ba a ba da cikakken bayani game da wadanda suke amfani da kudi daga yaki. Maganar Sakataren Harkokin Tsaro, Robert McNamara da Shugaba Lyndon Johnson, a lokacin da aka raunana Gulf of Tonkin, bai rage ba. Etc.
Duk abin da aka ce, fim din ya amfana daga hada da muryoyi da dama da na saba da ko wanda yake da ra'ayoyin da na samu a cikin abin da ya faru - yana da asusun abubuwan ra'ayi na mutane, kuma muna jin yawancin su, kuma mun koyi daga ji da yawa daga cikinsu. Hakanan fim na 10 ya bayyana sosai a bayyane kuma a fili yadda Gwamnatin Amurka ta yi ƙarya game da motsawar da take da shi na "nasara" a yayin yakin - ciki har da nuna hotuna na 'yan jaridun TV rahoton a kan mummunan yaki a hanyar da ba za su iya yi a yau ba, kuma suna ci gaba da aikinsu (a gaskiya, sau da yawa tare da mayar da hankali kan matsalar da Amurka ta kashe, abin da ya kasance abin da aka magance matsalolin da ake sauraron Amurka a yau). Fim din ya bayar da rahoto game da mutuwar Vietnamese, duk da haka yana da tsauraran kai tsaye ga tsarin addinin Orthodox na yin rahoto akai-akai game da ƙananan ƙananan mutuwar Amurka. Yana bayar da rahoto game da hare-haren da ake yi a kai a kai har ma da rashin bin doka. Ya yi tasirin Gulf of Tonkin kamar yadda Amurka ta kaddamar da ita daga bakin tekun Vietnam. A takaice dai, yana da cikakken isasshen aikin don kowane mai duba mai hankali zai bukaci cewa ba za a sake yin yaki kamar wannan ba. Duk da haka, da'awar cewa wasu yakin da zai iya zama cikakke cikakke an bar shi tsaye a tsaye.
Ina so in kira musamman, da kuma godiya, da hankali ga abu daya da fim din PBS ya ƙunshi, harkar Richard Nixon. Shekaru biyar da suka gabata, wannan labarin ya nuna a wata kasida ta Ken Hughes, da sauransu ta Robert Parry. Shekaru hudu da suka shige ta sanya shi The Smithsonian, a tsakanin sauran wurare. Shekaru uku da suka shige ta sami sanarwa a cikin takarda mai yarda da kamfanoni Ken Hughes. A wannan lokacin, George Will an ambaci cinikayyar Nixon ta hanyar wucewa Washington Post, kamar dai kowa ya san kome game da shi. A cikin sabon shirin na PBS, Burns da Novick zahiri sun fito kuma sun bayyana a fili abin da ya faru, a hanyar da Will ba. A sakamakon haka, mutane da yawa zasu iya jin abin da ya faru.
Abin da ya faru shi ne wannan. Shugabannin Shugaba Johnson sun shiga tattaunawar zaman lafiya tare da Arewacin Vietnam. Dan takarar shugaban kasa, Richard Nixon, ya shaida wa Arewacin Vietnam cewa za su sami mafi kyawun idan sun jira. Johnson ya fahimci wannan kuma a fili ya kira shi cin amana amma a fili bai ce kome ba. Nixon ya yi alkawarin cewa zai iya kawo karshen yakin. Amma, ba kamar Reagan wanda daga baya ya yi sulhu da shawarwari don 'yantar da' yan gudun hijirar daga Iran, Nixon ba shi da gangan ya ba da abin da ya ɓoye a asirce. Maimakon haka, a matsayin shugaban kasa da aka zaba bisa tsarin zamba, ya ci gaba da kara girman yaki (kamar yadda Johnson yake da shi). Ya sake yin yaki a kan alkawarin da zai kawo ƙarshen yaki a lokacin da yake neman sake zaɓen zaben shekaru hudu bayan haka - har yanzu jama'a ba su san cewa za a iya kawo karshen yaki ba kafin Nixon ya koma White House idan kawai Nixon bai haramta ba bisa doka (ko kuma an gama shi a kowane lokaci tun lokacin da ta fara ta hanyar kawo karshen).
Gaskiyar cewa wannan laifin ya kasance kuma Nixon ya so ya ɓoye duk wani laifin da aka aikata a ƙarƙashin "Watergate." Shirin shirin na PBS ya nuna cewa nufin Nixon ya shiga cikin tsaro a cikin Institution na Brookings shi ne wani ɓangare na ƙoƙari na rufe muryarsa ta asali. Burns da Novick ba su ambaci cewa Nixon thug Charles Colson ya yi niyya bam da Brookings Institution.
Ba zan iya amsa abin da jama'a na Amurka za su yi ba idan an gano sabotage na Nixon na tattaunawar zaman lafiya a lokacin da ya faru. Zan iya amsa abin da Amurka za ta yi idan shugaban Amurka na yau da kullum ya yi sulhu da tattaunawar zaman lafiya tare da Koriya ta Arewa, Sakatariyar Gwamnati ta kira shi a matsayin dan takara, kuma shugaban Majalisar Dattijan Harkokin Harkokin Harkokin Harkokin Wajen Amurka ya bayyana cewa ya cutar da Amurka, ya haddasa yakin duniya na III, kuma bai fahimci gaskiyar ba. A gaskiya, mutane za su koma baya kuma suna kallon - mafi kyau - fim din game da Vietnam daga dawowa a ranar da akwai abubuwa da zasu damu.
