    The American involvement in Vietnam, as the one in the Philippines, was to gain territory of support, and even in a way satellite states that the United States can use.

    In Vietnam broke up a war because of this. The country started to lean towards communism, and the Soviets had an ever growing influence. The United States were not willing to give the Soviets a chance to have power over this strategic country, so they intervened military, creating a bloody war, which eventually brought in shame for the United States as they lost the war.

    Compared to the Vietnam War, suppression of the Philippine independence movement was another story. The United States had already had the Philippines under their control, established military basis, and constant military presence. So they actually faced an internal problem in way, where they had to use military power in order to put in control the people that they already had under their control.
