Oh dear... do we have to waste yet more time with this...

1.) Yup, please teach me more. BTW, while doing so, consider I'm not only the editor of this book-series, but the author - who was born in Vietnam - is also the leading military historian of former South Vietnam:

2.) Sorry, got no crystal ball, and thus didn't know that a nuclear war was about to erupt in 1972....

3.) It was an entirely pointless exercise - because the PRC and the USSR were at odds already since 1958-1961, and almost fought a (nuclear) war in 1969. For that part of the story, see:

4.) Do I have to explain that, too? You never read anything about Kissinger's 'negotiations' with Arabs and Israel in 1973?

5.) Yeah....they've all 'deserved' it - because it the Nobel Commission 'always knows exactly' what is it doing.... :rolleyes:
