The official explanation--
1:29:05
that it's all an attempt
to divert American forces--

1:29:08
The Vietcong paid dearly
for their acts of rampant terrorism--

1:29:12
The enemy is mounting
some last desperate campaign.

1:29:16
We're just mopping up here. What's
the word at the radio station? Over.

1:29:21
I see. Real good.
Well, keep us posted. Over.

1:29:24
Keep this line open.
1:29:29
We did it. They threw their best
at us, and we beat 'em.

1:29:31
Yeah, it got a bit crazy out there.
1:29:34
General, what's your assessment
of the situation?

1:29:37
Just our guys clearing up
some unexploded M-79 rounds.

1:29:41
General, can I ask you a question?
1:29:43
The enemy appears to be trying
to take over South Vietnam.

1:29:46
The Vietcong
has very deceitfully...

1:29:51
taken advantage of the Tet truce...
1:29:54
in order to create maximum
consternation in South Vietnam...

1:29:58
particularly in the populated areas.
1:30:03
- Mr. Ambassador.
- Good work. Thank you very much.

1:30:07
I think General Weyand
should take the credit, sir.

1:30:09
I'm aware of that.
Thank you.

1:30:13
I'll tell you this.
You throw a hell of a party.

1:30:18
A real blowout.
1:30:23
Let's get a picture.
1:30:29
Get a picture.
1:30:33
Come on.
1:30:39
I shall not seek
and I will not accept...

1:30:43
the nomination of my party
for another term as your president.

1:30:47
I, Richard Milhous Nixon, do solemnly
swear that I will faithfully...

1:30:52
execute the office
of president of the United States.

1:30:57
$$"Stop The War Now"
North Vietnam...

1:30:59
cannot defeat or humiliate
the United States.
