Vietnamkrigen
Buddhists staged protests across South Vietnam, protesting the
government of President Diem, a Catholic who removed Buddhists from
important government positions and replaced them with Catholics.
Buddhist monks protested Diem's intolerance of other religions and
the methods he used to silence them. Several Buddhist monks
immolated themselves in protest of the war.
