To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Neutralism, as Ambassador Taylor noted, "appeared to mean throw- ing the internal political situation open and thus inviting Communist participa- tion" (III, 675), for obvious reasons an intolerable prospect. The dilemma noted in 1948 was never resolved. The political weakness of the U. S. -imposed regimes — Quisling regimes, in effect — forced the U. S. To take over the war and ultimately to devastate the rural society. On occasion, it was difficult even to obtain formal GVN authorization for ...U. S. Escalation. At one crucial moment, the new program of escalation of February, 1965 was received "with enthusiasm" by Ambassador Taylor, who then "explained the difficulties he faced in obtaining authentic GVN concurrence 'in the condition of virtual non-govern- ment' which existed in Saigon at that moment" (III, 323). The problem was always understood by experts on the scene. John Paul Vann, USOM Field Operations Coordinator, circulated a report in 1965 based on the premise that a social revolution was in process in South Vietnam "primarily identified with the National Liberation Front" and that "a popular political base for the Government of South Vietnam does not now exist".
