This war. kept hidden from the American people. is a shocking example of what seems to be our new pattern of fighting: massive bombardment of guerrilla zones. even if these zones lie in populated areas. and the use of American support for Asian troops fighting on the ground. The toll on the Indochinese people is devastating. In Laos. whole villages have been leveled. tens of thousands of peasants have been killed and wounded. and hundreds of thousands have been driven underground to seek refuge in caves and tunnels from American bombers. Presently 300.000 peasants in Laos are in refugee camps. And many of these Laotians do not even know where America is. The war has expanded on other fronts.
