Tom Hayden has passed away at 76 and the New York Times obituary recalled him as a “civil rights and anti-war activist.” That bears little resemblance to the real person, especially in regard to Vietnam.

For the full story of the war, millennials might want to check out America In Vietnam, by Guenter Lewy. The conflict pitted the Communist North, backed by the Soviet Union, against the non-Communist South, backed by the United States. Many Americans opposed U.S. involvement in the conflict, for a variety of reasons.

Tom Hayden and Jane Fonda committed treason.

The white washing of his life by the media does not change that.

Treason does not have a statute of limitations. Think about that, John Cary!

..should not have been allowed to breath the air the rest of us did...needed to be tango-uniform. He and other misguided miscreants like him, were dirty traitors. That would include Jane Fonda.

Tom Hayden one of the Chicago Seven and no better than Bill Ayers. He’s dead who cares?

Burial suggestion: Place ashes below the green screen. One for Tom, one for Jane.

American POWs were kept in cages and punished with tortures such as the “pretzel.”  The POW’s legs were tied together and arms laced tightly behind his back until the elbows touched. Then the torturer would push the bound arms up and over the head. But the torture wasn’t all physical.
 
The captors piped in propaganda and, Ellis explains, “the afternoon broadcasts were especially disheartening because they featured Americans spouting words that could have been written for them in Moscow and Hanoi.” American Tom Hayden “was a regular speaker,” later joined by his wife “film star Jane Fonda.” For this pair, American POWs were war criminals and their reports of torture were lies.

Then they had to come home to the hatred spewed by the left here in the US.

Hubby was part of Frequent Wind when they were pulling the AMB out, as Navy never set foot on Nam so is an Era Vet. My cousin limps to this day. Had quite a few serve then. Some made careers out of the Military like my husband did 20 yrs Ret as a SCPO in the 80’s.

Keep boycotting the NFL.

Asked Hubby (Vietnam vet) if he saw Tom Hayden died. He said....can’t you tell I’m celebrating? lol

He went to Czechoslovakia in 1968 and met with communist representatives of the Viet Cong who were killing his countrymen in Vietnam. This was when the Soviet Army invaded Czechoslovakia to put down a democratic revolt against their puppet government.

He embraced the VC and shouted “ I am a Viet Cong! We are all Viet Cong!”

He was not an “anti-war activist” as falsely described by The Corrupt Liberal Media. He was an anti-American activist. A cheerleader for the Communist armies killing his countrymen in a long and bitter war. And a sign of things to come in the “progressive” wing of the Democratic Party.
