ABSTRACT
As students of history, JFK and RFK had formed their own opinions about British rule and abuses in Ireland, India, Africa, and Asia. They condemned French colonial policy in Algeria and the folly of France's imperial designs on Vietnam and the rest of Indochina. The bloody struggles for liberty in the sands of Algeria to the steaming jungles of Indonesia and Vietnam proved that others would make the same sacrifices to throw off the yoke of imperialism that the Irish did more than a half-century ago". By 1968, it would fall to Robert Kennedy to not only call for an end to the Vietnam War, but also demand an end to US military interventions throughout the Third World in his "No More Vietnams" speeches that were delivered throughout the course of the 1968 presidential campaign.
