Dershowitz goal was to find out what certain democracy-bashers had said and were saying about China. The executive director of the National Lawyers Guild told Dershowitz associate that his own personal view was that China should not have used force against unarmed civilians, but he reiterated that the guild, as an organization, could come to no organizational position "without more information and discussion."
