Summarize
Document states that VC are scoring many great victories in the largest and most barbarous war staged by the US imperialists. Different strategies have been adopted by the enemy (FWMAF/RVNAF), from "search-and-destroy" to "clear-and-hold," "accelerated pacification," "de-Americanisation," and "Vietnamization," but they were all defeated. The cost of the SVN war on the US has significantly affected their economy. US aggressive will is collapsing, and Americans are seeking a way out through "de-Americanization". In MR 5, politically and militarily many victories were won but not enough to force speedy de-escalation.
