Madame Binh was a bourgeois Communist, and a good propagandist except that she has a big mouth, to our advantage. She confirms what many of us said about the so-called “peace movement” or “Anti-Vietnam movement” or VN protest movement.
It was run by American and North Vietnamese communists literally from the start of the first “Mobilization Committee to end the War in Vietnam” (1996 through other Mobes to the Peoples Coalition for Peace and Justice (Communist Party controlled) and its split faction run by the Trotskyite Socialist Workers Party, the National Peace Action Coalition.
Then there was the Indochina Peace Campaign of Tom Hayden, aided by his hairbrained wife Jane Fonda . Took there orders directly from Hanoi, as Tom told us at the Germantown, Ohio anti-war meeting in October 1973. Just back from meeting the No. Vietnamese in Paris, he told us what Hanoi wanted the IPC/peace movement to do, namely to focus all efforts to lobby for the cutting off of all aid to So. Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.
They were successful and millions died because of it.
If it is any consolation, I had to walk out of a briefing by Gen. Cushing in Ben Tre City because of a very bad stomach. Took a dump right next to Madame Binh’s “Little Red Schoolhouse” (they had a cesspool there for the locals and was used by one of our MAG teams who slept in the house).
Oh, by the way, this was the city that we supportedly had to destroy in order to save it. Well, from 500 ft down to 10 feet, it looked pretty intact to me when I went there as a journalist in November, 1970. No signs of massive or even major destruction. The elementary school had once been a helicopter landing pad (still had the landing site outline paint).
If there is any reason to hate Democrats, it is their betrayal of freedom and millions of people in SVN, Cambodia, and Laos. That has earned them my eternal damnation for their cowardice and treason.
When Kerry ran for POTUS I read all 12,000 pages of the FBI report on the VVAW and posted many reports on it here on FR. Some remain on my FR about me page.
VVAW was a communist run terrorist group who plotted to murder Nixon and 20 US Senetors, feed valuable intell to the NV Communists.
