There is no evidence that a Buddhist-controlled government would press the war against the Viet Cong. There is a great deal of evidence that instead it would try to negotiate with the Reds to bring about the "neutralization" of South Viet Nam.

They raised the capital through savings, friends, banks and notes from local businessmen. As late as Nov.30, they were still spending every free hour they had to tend to the many frustrating details that develop when a "crash" bulling project is undertaken...
