A newly restored documentary spotlights her despicable Team Communism cheerleading. Back around the time Jane Fonda was giving aid and comfort to America’s Communist enemies in North Vietnam, yukking it up with anti-aircraft gunners who shot down our troops — I wonder if there are any laws against that sort of thing — she also headlined an anti-U.S.O. tour. Despising the actual U.S.O. for its policy of giving aid and comfort to American troops, Fonda went on the road with a hippie rebuttal to bolster the chances of the North Vietnamese Stalinists who, after the war turned out the way she wanted it to, forced 300,000 people into prison camps for reeducation. Fonda’s tour was called “F.T.A.,” and in the opening moments of the documentary of the same name, you can see her on stage with her pal and Klute co-star Donald Sutherland screaming out what it stood for: “[censored] the Army.”

I am thinking March should be a Viet Nam review month, and repost some old threads about it. Does that sound like a good idea?
The Dirty Dozen as well
Treason charges would’ve been enough for Me.

>>>Hanoi Jane was bad enough, but I didn’t realize Donald Sutherland was a Commie too.<<<
I didn’t realize it either, until several years ago, my mother casually mentioned one evening that Donald Sutherland was as big an America-hater as Hanoi Jane was.
Treason charges would’ve been enough for Me.
Yes, I know it’s absurd, but there it is. It would nice to think that she would have suffered a lot more for what she did. I’m afraid the worst she’ll suffer is a lot of old men pissing on her grave.
One of my old girlfriends was in a “peace” march. She said she was having “fun” until she went by a veteran in a wheel chair waving a little American flag. She became a staunch conservative and military supporter. She married one of the medics who flew into enemy territory in a Huey in Viet Nam to rescue our troops. So many were young, idealistic and misled then.
He is also in one of my favorite movies “The Dirty Dozen,” which I still watch occasionally. I hold my nose and enjoy it in spite of him being in it.
Animal House as well.
I have a rust proof pee canister been sitting on the top shelf of my office, labeled “My gift to Hanoi Jane”. With a promise from my daughter that should I pass before Hanoi Jane does my daughter will make sure my gift finds it’s way to wherever they bury her.
There’s a reason he’s called Red Walter.
The dirty dozen. He made the GI look bad in that one too.
I promised my 3 tour Viet vet uncle before sunsetting with Alzheimer’s I would be in that line
How exactly did Nixon ‘sell us out’?
I recall he approached the CCP in the knowledge that the USSR was preparing to nuke China and invade it in the early ‘70s.
Maybe countering the USSR, saving 500 million lives and reducing Chinese support of North Vietnam was his objective?
Nixon was not naive about communists.
I don’t know. How much worse than treason does it get?
“They even used the same symbol - the ‘Ban the Bomb’ symbol morphed into the ‘Peace Symbol’ without any changes.”
They’d be mortified to find that the “Peace Symbol” appeared as a unit symbol on WWII German tanks. One appears on a June cover issue of ‘WWII History’ magazine.
3. The PCPJ and the New Mobe had continuous communications with Hanoi and Moscow and to a degree, Beijing throughout the war. The massive demonstrations they sponsored were scheduled in conjunction with the enemy for timing, thrust (theme), and size.
4. The demonstrations were filled with the usual useful idiots who really just wanted to keep themselves out of the war or people they knew -or just have a good time thumbing their noses at authority.

5 will get you 10 that Antifa operates the same way with more emphasis on China, less on Russia, & without Nam.
But at the end of the day, he's just another flake who wears make-up and plays make believe for a living.
Now, we're surrounded by massive failures of liberalism in every facet of our existence, and only a fool could continue to support it.
We've become a nation of fools, led by retards, supported by pussies.
Great idea!
