JFK finally realized that the US-backed dictator in Vietnam was killing buddhists on the down low, and we pulled support.


Ngo Dinh Diem was holding elections where he was getting 98% of the vote. The South Vietnamese hated that man. I would argue JFK’s decision to pull support contributed to his assassination. The CIA and MIC knew they could get what they wanted with LBJ in the White House.
