I did not know whom to trust, what the rules of my new mess happened to be, or what was expected of me in this new and strange form of warfare I was about to embark upon.

---- You were being held as a hostage and as a propaganda tool; otherwise you had no value.
---You were a slave to communist ideology.

Not really clear what this article has to do with Fonda. She isn't mentioned at all.
The article is about what a hero McCain was for not accepting an early out. He once was a hero in my eyes also. He's NOT one any longer.
