Talk:Duck Hook

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] jugular diplomacy

I believe it's worth mentioning that DUCK HOOK was a part of Nixon-Kissinger "jugular diplomacy". Kissinger's (the good cop) role was to convey Nixon's (the bad cop) threats for the purpose of intimidating Norh Vietnamese into negotiations. Therefore, DUCK HOOK wad not a REAL plan of military operation, but merely a bluff.

Please sign your posts. Add it to the paper, just make sure it is referenced, with page number. I have found that adding items to talk pages asking others to add the information, almost never, ever works. Better to add it yourself.Travb 22:26, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
