    Saigon Execution is an irrelevant photo now but at the time it was iconic for the antiwar movement which is why I think it’s a very powerful picture, there was a world where the war lasted a bit longer but mounting pressure from the domestic anti-war movement played a role in stopping the war. Only a secondary role to the absolutely heroic struggle of the Viet Minh, of course.
