Vietnam Conflict (Stubborn Stalin)

During the time of the Second Paris Debate, a civil war in Vietnam was beginning and already reached global status. The Communist North Vietnamese battled against the pro-democracy South Vietnamese. After preparing for a invasion of the Soviet Union, US President Dwight Eisenhower made many calls to NATO leaders reminding them of the scare of the Communist Dominio effect. He persuaded them to call of the attacks and begin a NATO-led invasion of North Vietnam.

The Vietnam Invasion would begin on the same day planned for the invasion of the USSR, May 28, 1955. The invasion had such a tricky back story it was chronicled in a TIME magazine article in 1965 titled "The Day the Earth Stood Still", a referance to the famous Sci-fi movie and to all the decisions regarding this incident.
