BBC NEWS | "Richard Nixon told top aides involved in Vietnam to lie to the public about US operations in neighbouring Cambodia, files released in Washington show.
He ordered the deception at a meeting of his top military and national security aides in 1970, a month after admitting publicly to a secret war.
'Publicly, we say one thing - actually, we do another,' the president said in a memo after the meeting.
About 14,000 US troops were in Cambodia hunting North Vietnamese forces."
