	Hearts and Minds (Vietnam) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hearts and Minds was a euphemism for a campaign by the United States military during the Vietnam War, intended to win the popular support of the Vietnamese people.
		The 1974 film Hearts and Minds showed the potential contradictions of the term, and for some the term "Hearts and Minds" remains symbolic of the fictional nature of militarist propaganda.
		The term "hearts and minds" as a method to bring a native population on side was first used during the Malayan Emergency by the British who employed practices to keep the Malayans trust and reduce a tendency to side with the ethnic chinese communists.

		"Hearts and Minds" is also the movie that enshrined the now-household images of the naked Vietnamese girl, also made famous by Nick Ut's Pulitzer Prize-winning photographs, running from a napalm attack, her body a patchwork of burns, and the infant in a woman's arms, suffering from the same injuries, skin hanging off its body.
		It's also the film (and a famous photograph by Eddie Adams) that shows the point-blank execution of a Viet Cong captive by a South Vietnamese police officer, followed by the horrifying spouting of blood from the dying man's head as he dies on the road.

		Unfortunately, what war supporters are apparently unwilling to acknowledge is that winning hearts and minds, to the extent that we're dealing problems of perception, can't be done through military means alone.

	The Criterion Collection: Hearts and Minds
		Peter Davis’ provocative Oscar-winning Hearts and Minds, released to the American public in 1975, is that rare documentary whose truths and relevance have been underlined and amplified by the passage of time.
		The title is derived from President Lyndon B. Johnson’s noting, as he escalated American involvement in the Vietnam War, that “The ultimate victory will depend on the hearts and minds of the people who actually live out there.” But Davis’ triumph is that he is even more concerned with the hearts and minds of Americans.
		And though its time-set is the 10-year foreign war that cost some 60,000 American lives and caused internal upheaval and bitter aftermath, his work endures as a touchstone for our concept of Americanism, patriotism and personal and political principle.
