The Vietnam War (under Johnson) was considered, "fighting with our hands tied", "fighting with one's hand tied behind his back", "not fighting to win", "fighting half-heartedly", "fighting with Political restraints", etc. Hawks wanted to INVADE North Vietnam and use NUCLEAR weapons if necessary, to WIN! Johnson relied on history & strategic thought: Red China's entry into the previous Korean War, because of a US invasion of North Korea; the potential threat of nuclear war from either the Soviet Union or Red China.
