War's Third Phase
As the war moves into its
third phase, those who deal in
processes, techniques and
marginal shifts in power will
doubtless say that the United
States retains a vital interest in
the latest settlement. That is
true only in the immediate
sense; it is no more in the long
range American interest to
impose its will on Indochina in
say, 1975 than it was in 1946.
Many analysts feel that the
first order of business
following the return of the
prisoners should be removal of
the bombers now poised on
Thailand. The second should
be the granting of amnesty to
those who refused to serve in a
war that was misguided in its
first phase and dishonorable in
its second.
