U.S. Threat Of Forces Seen As Laos Crisis Hope
Washington officials say only a display of U.S. military power in Southeast Asia, likely in Thailand, can deter the Pathet Lao and North Vietnamese from seizing Laos.

Analysts doubt a full Laos takeover is imminent, seeing aims as improving positions along battle lines and forcing concessions from a weakened government.
