This video exposes U.S. government as the creator of the hippy scene in the late 60's to turn images of Vietnam War protests into bums on drugs instead of educated people wearing nice clothes, which is what the protests involved at first. That killed the credibility of the protests and allowed the vastly escalated war to continue. A huge chunk of the late 60's and early 70's rock icons were the sons of very high ranking people in the military. Jim Morrison, John Phillips, Stephen Stills, David Crosby, Frank Zappa, the members of America, and Jackson Browne all fit that description. All of these people and many more famous rock musicians lived in the same little part of L.A., right near a major military base. They might have been working for the CIA. (?)
Jim Morrison's dad was the Navy admiral who was in charge at the scene of the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which paved the way for the government to move from 25,000 soldiers to 200,000 and start indiscriminately bombing North Vietnam in 1965. Jim told the public and people he knew that his parents were dead. Jim played a hippy type character in the show business world, but he was actually a conservative who didn't like hippies.
More or less, here's the video.
