Operation Linebacker II: de facto Commander-in-Chief Nixon, Esq., orders the United states Air Force to conduct its most intensive heavy bomber campaign since the Axis War (World War II against the communist Democratic Republic of (North) Vietnam.

       Postscript: By the completion of the operation two weeks later the leadership of North Vietnam agreed to enter in serious negotiations to end the war.

       Question: Why did not Nixon do this at the beginning of his administration?

       NOTE: As an attorney (Officer of the Court) Nixon was ineligible to serve in two branches of government at the same time, according to Article I, Section 6 [Clause 2].

       While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are in Vietnam, “united in determination to take all necessary measures in support of freedom,” Republican (fascist/socialist) Nixon, Esq., admonishes Henry Kissinger, his National Security Adviser, “Never forget, the press is the enemy.  The establishment [‘power elite’] is the enemy.  The professors are the enemy.  Professors are the enemy.  Write that on a blackboard 100 times and never forget it.”
