History of the Philippine insurrection against the United States, 1899-1903, and documents relating to the War Department project for publishing the history  During the Spanish-American War, U.S. forces in the Philippines and Filipino forces led by revolutionary leader Emilio Aguinaldo had a common enemy in Spain. As hostilities came to a close and the United States emerged from the war victorious, Aguinaldo and his supporters were eager for Philippine independence. However, as a result of the Treaty of Paris, December 10, 1898, the United States gained the Philippines as a U.S. territory. Many in the islands were not eager to see one colonial power replaced by another. This desire for independence soon resulted in armed resistance against the United States. MICFILM 580 No
The Lyndon B. Johnson national security files. Vietnam. First supplement :national security files, 1963-1969 For Lyndon Johnson, the Vietnam War represented a great tragedy. Johnson had not created the commitment in Vietnam and he would have preferred to shun it, but the war he took on so reluctantly and struggled so unsuccessfully to conclude destroyed his Great Society domestic programs and tore the nation apart. He could find consolation only in the hope that history would vindicate him for taking up the thankless burden of defending South Vietnam and persevering in the face of vicious criticism.
