I would rather she be shaved and see the electric chair.

< "If you understood what communism was, you would hope, you would pray on your knees that we would some day become communist." -Jane Fonda, November 21, 1970, University of Michigan

"I, a socialist, think that we should strive toward a socialist society, all the way to communism." -Jane Fonda, Duke University

She also helped organize FTA (F*ck The Army)in which they would perform skits and encourage soervicemen to desert, and among other things, shoot their Officers. Little known by many Americans today, Donald Sutherland, that c*&%s*cker, was among the celebrities that participated.

Jane Fonda can go F herself....

I could live with that because it is less creepy, and more just.

Jane, your traitorous ways will haunt you until you draw your last breath.

It is certainly painful for me that I, who had spent so much time talking to soldiers, trying to help soldiers and veterans, helping the anti-war movement to not blame the soldiers, now would be seen as being against our soldiers! --- Jane Fonda

Jane Fonda also helped in the organization of a production group called the F.T.A. (F*** The Army). This group helped to set up coffee houses near military bases where they would perform anti-war derogatory-type sketches for the visiting soldiers. The coffee-house sketches were intended to counterpoint the U.S.O. shows, such as Bob Hope and other U.S.O. sponsored performers whose performances increased morale and gave positive support to American soldiers. Some of the F.T.A. coffee house employees would mingle with the soldiers to help them to "relax and unwind", while encouraging the soldiers to desert. Some soldiers alleged that they were promised jobs and money by the F.T.A. if they deserted. - via 286 posted on 02/11/2004 7:24:22 PM PST by kcvl

Sure, Jane. Encouraging soldiers to desert knowing they would get prison time is how you "help" them? And the propaganda broadcasts you did accusing them of being war criminals ... what's your explanation for that?

By the way.... the Vietnamese didn't lay off the torture until we started bombing Hanoi. They sure as heck didn't stop toturing because they were feeling peace and love.

Jane said: Moreover, according to even the most hardcore senior officers, torture stopped late in 1969, two and a half years before I got there.

First of all, "hardcore senior officers?" Nice choice of words by that ignorant slut.

And refuting her "torture stopped" claim by those unnamed hardcore officers we have By John L. Frisbee in Valor en Masse [emphasis added]

Torture was not used primarily to obtain military information, but to break a prisoner's will, force him to betray his comrades, and extort letters or tapes condemning US policy and praising the leniency of his captors. The prisoners were viewed by North Vietnam as a propaganda tool to fan the flames of antiwar sentiment in this country. To some extent that scheme backfired when the barbarism engulfing the prisons became known in 1969. Only then did POW life begin to improve, slowly and with many reversions.

Note too the aim of the dinks in applying the torture. Our brave captives paid dearly for holding out and each bit of propaganda thus obtained had a cost in blood. Jane gave them the same thing for free. Gee, she really is a slut isn't she?

You should have been tried as a traitor and hung, Jane. I read your words back then and know where you stood. The simple fact that you went there is cause enough to have tried you for treason. Your excuses are lame and you’re still pushing the same socialist/communist crap. FU!

What is incredibly, fantastically, wonderful, and makes me feel like dancing, is to learn that it really is bothering her, she sounds frustrated and angry.

She is incredibly wealthy, famous, beloved by the powers that be, and yet, in the twilight of her life she stumbles, and reveals that we are winning.

We haven’t forgotten Benedict Arnold’s Treason and it’s been a lot longer than 40 years.

Jane rest assured that when it's your turn to be on the wrong side of dirt, your plot will be *watered* extensively.

Nuff said.

And, most importantly, I would never say such things to our servicemen, whom I respect, whether or not I agree with the mission they have been sent to perform, which is not of their choosing.

Pi$$ off, Jane!

Your own words, spoken from Hanoi prove you are a liar!

-the fact that artists here are translating and performing American plays while US imperialists are bombing their country.
Doesn't sound like you had a lot of respect for them!

Whether the photo was as innocent as you claim (I'm not buying it!) is irrelevant. Just the fact that you were traipsing around North Vietnam with enemy soldiers, giving aid and comfort to the enemy and allowing yourself to be used for propaganda purposes is enough to convince me you should have been tried for treason.

Tomorrow we will bury Paul Ryckman Prenger. He was one of those who was spat upon by liberal elements at the University of Oregon where he attended after returning from 3 tours in Vietnam.

I cannot imagine life without him.

If I’m remembering the classes I got on racial and ideological, geographical, differences in interrogation, the North Vietnamese were, as you said, not so much interested in military information as they were in getting your mind “right”

When I was a kid, the nightmare scenario (maybe it came from a sci-fi book) was for you to be tortured, and to learn that you had no information that they cared about, and to learn that they knew that already.
