*I've spoken up about this issue multiple times here, since joining in 2022. My family members were & still are affected by the massive damages caused by #USMilitary invasion. The US government used us as guinea pigs to test out their newer #WeaponsOfMassDestruction.

The term #ecocide had been coined in the late 1960s to describe the U.S. military’s use of #herbicides like #AgentOrange and incendiary weapons like #napalm to battle #guerrilla forces that used jungles and marshes for cover.

Fifty years later, #Vietnam ’s degraded #ecosystems and #dioxin #contaminated soils and waters still reflect the long-term #ecological consequences of the #war. Efforts to restore these damaged landscapes and even to assess the long-term harm have been limited.
