Supporters of the president
would like us to believe he is
doing Ihe best he can under Ihe
circumstances, but the alter
natives to his policy should be
analyzed to see whether such a
view is credible Whal else
could Ihe president do’’
A He could withdraw all of
our forces without negotiations
This would be carrying present
policy a step fu rthe r by
removing a ir power and
residual forces But danger lo
withdrawing forces would be
great, it would offer no
assurance that prisoners would
be released and a show down
between opposing Vietnamese
armies could resull in Ihe vast
supplies and equipment we
have provided ending up in
enemy hands
Furthermore this plan would
ignore the interests of vast
numbers of Vietnamese who
support neither side in this
struggle The winning side
probably would remain in
control of U ns and Cambodia
as well However, it would have
the effect of making if possible
for one side or Ihe other to win,
thus ending the war
H The president could fight
Io win. he could gel in there and
finish the job This has been
avoided in the past because it
