526 ংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ ত্রয়োদশ খন্ড capitalizing on chaos, and other elements of that "Northeast Volcano" will find Red China supporting them as they have massively supported the Vietnam struggle, and Mao will then repudiate Yahya and Co. Enough of this point for now, but Mr. President, you and Mr. Kissinger had better go deeper in your China study and see that you are now on the wrong track, so far as your South Asia chessboard goes, definitely backing the very wrong horse. What a price a "lift" to Peking for Henry? If by your present course you weaken the Bangladesh cause and tempt China to encourage and support a new and far worse Vietnam, with another quarter of the human race, in South Asia, at stake, will that not give a serious setback to our hopes of seeing the real China in the United Nations as a responsible member of the world family? As for the justification for India's going to Bangladesh's rescue, she would only be responding, at long last, after dangerous delay, to the horrible and massive aggression of Pakistan's reign of terror regime against the people of Bangladesh, who will form the eighth largest nation of the world: aggression also against India, far more serious than an ordinary violation of a border or most of the other accepted causes of war, historically. Above all, this deliberate genocidal aggression has been a gross attack on the very fabric of civilization, of decent and human and trustable human relations, a return to far worse than the law of the jungle. The Humpty-Dumpty that was Pakistan-the weird political contrivance for two very different peoples, a thousand miles apart and supposed to be united only by a common religion, a relationship that has given the majority the 75,000,000 of East Pakistan a far worse colonial status than ever they had under the British—this put Humpty-Dumpty together again-not even with the aid of the Pentagon and the State Department. No, you cannot solve the refugee or aid problem without solving the political problem. This is the basic stubborn fact from which true statesmanship must fashion a new policy.
