This would be a "Cuban Missile Crisis" Gamble: Tell Red China and the USSR that if North Vietnam does not remove their forces from Laos and Cambodia (Ho Chi Minh Trail) that the US will destroy (physically occupy) Laos and Cambodia and/or invade NORTH Vietnam. And that Red China and the USSR should stay out of the war. In return, "IF" North Vietnam removes the Ho Chi Minh trail (Laos/Cambodia), and does NOT violate any other nation's neutrality, the US will revert to militarily supporting the Republic of South Vietnam with advisers and equipment. The war will be fought strictly by the North and the South Vietnamese; as surrogates for the free world and the communist world.
