32. If we had the balls of Pres Truman, Viet-Nam would have been over
in a hurry. Pres Johnson or Nixon should have served
notice to the communist regime in Hanoi to cease and desist
all fighting in S. Viet-Nam otherwise we would nuke Hanoi
within 72 hours. That would have ended the war in a few hours.

Communist China, who was the main supplier of arms
would never dare to attack the US since there would
be no more China suitable for human habitation for 100,000 years
after that.

The point here again is, SUPERIORITY OF WEAPONS HAVE THE
ABILITY TO END ANY WAR QUICKLY AND DECISIVELY.

The result of nuking Hanoi, if it came to that, would have been
that no 3rd world country would ever dare start a war against
the United States knowing what happenned to Hiroshima, Nagasaki
and Hanoi. We would have then peace for centuries to come.
