...other guy is always right, especially if he is a Communist. If I could feel sorry for the younger generation, I would; for soon there will be no teachers, no doctors, no lawyers, no engineers, no merchants, no anything, except revolutionaries running in a thousand different directions, having mistaken license for liberty...
Schelling said, "I used my lugubrious pitch-words like 'horror' and 'monster.' I think he felt we were overreacting, therefore he felt he could go back and try to convince us that the foreign policy was not wrong, but maybe merely mistaken.

But it would be a bad mistake for the anti-war forces in this country to focus on the Cambodian intrusion as an independent phenomenon without extending their new awareness to a more thorough-going critique of American activity in Indochina. And it would be equally mistaken for them to hope merely for a speedy end to the "limited" American venture. Even after this "seven-week" venture, the American military commitment will remain extended there, leading to widespread suffering for those in Cambodia who now live under Lon Nol's dictatorial tutelage...
