False. It was Agent Orange
EXPLANATION:
- From 1971, the US military sprayed Agent Orange in vast areas of Vietnam, causing dioxin waste, which seriously affected three generations of Vietnamese people's health.
- In addition, dioxin is a family of over 400 chemicals of which 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-P-dioxin or TCDD is the deadliest. This is the sense of the word dioxin in the context of the Vietnam war.
- No-one plans to spray dioxin intentionally on Vietnam, but war is characterized by tragic events and intentional brutality, and Agent Orange could be the worst of it.
- A combination of two chemicals created defoliants. Both were poisonous, but neither contained any dioxin by themselves. The production process had been accelerated to meet the Pentagon's relentless demand.
