Nikki Haley: John Kerry's secret talks with Iran are 'anti-American'
Washington Examiner ^ | September 26, 2018 08:27 AM | Pete Kasperowicz

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley charged Wednesday that former Secretary of State John Kerry's ongoing talks with Iran are "anti-American," as they make it harder for the Trump administration to

"What Secretary Kerry did was not only disrespectful, it was hurtful to America," Haley said on Fox News.

"When we're sitting there trying to get Iran to come to the table in a way that they understand the ballistic missile testing has to stop, the support of terrorism has to stop, they have to quit selling arms to the Houthis ... to have another American go in and say, 'don't worry about,' that absolutely is anti-American," she said. "And it was hurtful to the American people."

Kerry has admitted he stays in touch with Iran's foreign minister, with whom he worked to secure the Iran nuclear deal that President Trump has rejected. Kerry has insisted he is not "coaching" Iran on how to deal with a Trump administration that they both oppose, but Trump has said Kerry's meetings are "illegal" and aimed at hurting the American people.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has said the meetings were "beyond inappropriate."

Kerr defended himself by saying former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger continues to meet with his former counterparts overseas years after he left office. But Haley said Kissinger communicates to the Trump administration what he is doing, while Kerry does not.

And by default, John Kerry is ANTI-AMERICAN. Just like the hate-filled Obama administration that put him in place. The story is well-known.

As I understand it, no one has ever been prosecuted under the Logan Act. Does anyone know why that is? Because it sure seems like Kerry is tailor-made for exercising that little law.

My guess would be everybody who violates it is a Washington DC insider, and they never get prosecuted even if they kill somebody. Ask former Congressman Keith Olberman.

Kerry has made public admissions that he committed crimes. Free pass being given. Dems don’t care. They know they will never be prosecuted.

Kerry has been hemorrhaging credibility since he returned from Nam

If he has any remaining-it’s only apparent to the Iranians

Interesting line of questioning by Lindsey Graham:
Senator Lindsey Graham Questions Brett Kavanaugh Military Law vs Criminal Law.

Is she telling us something?

So were his talks with North Vietnam, but nothing came of that other than loss of the war, subjugation of millions to communism and loss of American prestige world wide.

Sorry, Nikki, but this ain’t news. He’s been anti-American for 50 years. Ask the Viet Cong.

That's right. Kerry illegally interfered with the Paris Peace Talks and did some private negotiating with Madame Binh who was Ho Chi Minh's mouthpeace.

John Kerry and the VVAW: Hanoi's American Puppets?

Newly discovered documents link Vietnam Veterans Against the War to Vietnamese communists

Two recently discovered documents captured from the Vietnamese communists during the Vietnam War strongly support the contention that a close link existed between the Hanoi regime and the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) while John Kerry served as the group's leading national spokesman. The Circular: International Coordination of Antiwar Propaganda

The first document is a 1971 "Circular" distributed by the Vietnamese communists within Vietnam. It discusses strategies to coordinate their national propaganda effort with their orchestration of the activities of sympathetic counterparts in the American anti-war movement. Specifically, the document notes that the Vietcong and North Vietnamese delegations to the Paris Peace talks were being used as the communications link to direct the activities of anti-war activists meeting with them in Paris. To quote from the document:

The spontaneous antiwar movements in the US have received assistance and guidance from the friendly ((VC/NVN)) delegations at the Paris Peace Talks.

-- Circular on Antiwar Movements in the US. The reference to "VC" indicates the Vietcong; "NVN" is the North Vietnamese government.

This sentence is particularly important in light of John Kerry's admission that he met with leaders of both communist delegations to the Paris Peace Talks in June 1970, including Madame Binh, foreign minister of the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG) of South Vietnam, also known as the Vietcong. FBI files record that Kerry returned to Paris to meet with the North Vietnamese delegation in August of 1971, and planned a third trip in November.

Prior to the discovery of the Circular, there was no direct evidence that Hanoi was actually steering the U.S. antiwar movement's activities by conveying Hanoi's goals and wishes to movement leaders during their frequent visits to Paris, though many investigators had assumed that to be the case. Further analysis of this document supports the contention that Madame Binh used her Paris meeting with John Kerry to instruct him on how he and the VVAW might best serve as Hanoi's surrogates in the United States. In the spring and summer of 1971, a key strategy of Hanoi was to advance what was known as Madame Binh's Seven Point Peace Plan.

The plan was cleverly constructed to force President Nixon to set a date to end the Vietnam War and withdraw American troops. According to the 7-Point Peace Plan of Madame Binh, the only barrier to Hanoi setting a date to release American Prisoners of War was President Nixon's unwillingness to set a specific date for military withdrawal. Of course, accepting the full terms of the 7-Point Peace Plan would have amounted to an American capitulation, a virtual surrender that included the payment of reparations to the Vietnam communists as an admission that America was the wrongful aggressor in an immoral war.....read more...
