I should have thrown in this as well just in case you don't click on the link...this is really good.... "The meeting with Zhou took place in Beijing on June 22, 1972, during stepped-up U.S. bombing and the mining of harbors meant to stall a North Vietnamese offensive that began in the spring. China, North Vietnam's ally, objected to the U.S. course but was engaged in a historic thaw of relations with Washington. Kissinger told Zhou that the United States respected its Hanoi enemy as a "permanent factor" and probably the "strongest entity" in the region. "And we have had no interest in destroying it or even defeating it," he insisted." How about that, telling Zhou that the US had no interest in destroying or defeating North Vietnam! That's a knee slapper isn't it. ROTFLOL. jttmab
