P: All right.
K: And then, he hasn't got them, he can't scream about
P: What about the 52's? How to control those 52's?
K: Well if we can handle those, he cannot claim and he wouldn't claim that
he has the right to have them every day seven days a week.
P: Fine. All right. Just so this is understood. Now the reason Rivero
is important is that he then can say I need those carriers for the north to
maintain the blockade. The blockade, Henry, is long-term. Abrams is
thinking short-term.
K: Exactly.
P: Now we have got to get that blockade, now the blockade, the mining, and
the strikes on the north, by whatever they are, are at this point vitally
important. We can't do the half-ass thing we did. You know that little
parxxxxxxxx
pop that we gave them three weeks ago and then sit back and
then think that maybe because you're going to Moscow or you're going to
Paris or I'm going to make a speech no more. Is that clear?
K: Absolutely.
P: From now on the die is cast. You may not realize how much we have
crossed the Rubicon. We have done it now. This is all. And, goddam it,
you've got to win. We have got to win, and I don't want any of this half-ass
bureaucratese things.
K: Right. I understand they're soft. That's the purpose of doing it.
P: All right. OK
K: Right, Mr. President.
P: But the T. O. has got to be fit into that Henry.
K: As soon as I get Laird I'll call you and discuss it.
P? Right
