These claims are all lies. The bombing, as some belated reporting from the area is starting to show, is directed against an indigenous Cambodian revolutionary movement, the Khmer Rouge, a force numbering in the hundreds of thousands which is attempting to topple the Lon Nol regime, Nixon's two-year-old creation. It is not directed against military targets, but has actually killed thousands of Cambodian people and clogged the roads in that country with tens of thousands of refugees. Nixon's bombing is a crime against peace -- a crime for which Nazi and Japanese war criminals were hanged...

Barring another brutal American intervention in the Third World in the immediate future, radicalism on campus will come to a temporary stasis, probing gently for new outlets...

Expanded Regime. This new approach suggests that the Communists might really be willing to give the truce a chance, at least for a time. With a cease-fire in Laos more or less in effect, that would leave only the Cambodian mess to be resolved. The U.S. hopes it can nudge Cambodia's former head of state, exiled Prince Norodom Sihanouk, and Khmer insurgent leaders into talks with members of the expanded regime of Marshal Lon Nol in Phnom-Penh...
