Why did the US invaded Laos?
The North Vietnamese and Viet Cong had been using Laos and Cambodia as a safe haven from which to attack Americans in South Vietnam. The North Vietnamese would cross from Laos into South Vietnam, attack, and then hurry back across the Laotian border when US forces started after them. Supply lines from North Vietnam to its forces in the south also ran through Laos and Cambodia, just over the border from South Vietnam. The North Vietnamese knew the US would respect the border, so they did not. The Laotian and Cambodian governments were not powerful enough to halt this abuse of their territory. Its very similar to the situation in Afghanistan today, with enemy forces hiding out in Pakistan, just over the border, and crossing into Afghanistan to attack, then scurrying back over the border.
