Lyndon Baines Johnson: Remarks on the Gulf of Tonkin Incident

( 1964 ) Commentary by Paul T. Murray, University of Missouri - St. Louis
  • “The determination of all Americans to carry out our full commitment to the people and to the government of South Viet-Nam will be redoubled by this outrage. Yet our response, for the present, will be limited and fitting. We Americans know, although others appear to forget, the risks of spreading conflict. We still seek no wider war.” - Remarks on the Gulf of Tonkin Incident
