If the Vietnamese have boxed themselves into a corner so that they must execute survivors we must get them out of that corner and fastvery fast. I would liked to have explained exactly what Shakespeare meant about the futility of covering up murdersthat no matter where you kill a man there will always be some witness. particularly in countries with millions of people and small land mass. Someday. somehow we will get these refugee sightings documented on lie detector tests in spite of language barriers. and we will even go to sodium pentothal the "truth serum." And so help me. almighty God. if there is a single man living in Vietnam look out. my colleagues. I intend to send this special order over to Vietnam so the conquerers can figure out how to save face with the rest of the world. They had better learn that they will have to come forward with this information for us or else make some of it available through UN channels. or go through some other international channels.
