"McNamara threw in the towel."He never let his fighter fully enter the ring, i.e. he declared North Vietnam off-limits to US land attacks (to interdict and, most importantly, keep NV troops in NV). I can see NV General Giap shaking his head and quietly laughing at the incredibile stupidity of the American leadership.

That was always as much their intention as it was to own So Vietnam. The people did no better under them.
