At the same time, the North Vietnamese military was torturing American prisoners of war to make them confess to identical crimes. At least one former POW has stated that Kerry's testimony was used by North Vietnam to demoralize American prisoners during interrogations.

John McCain said as much about what he was taunted with when he was a POW in his biography.

"Sen. John McCain revealed that his North Vietnamese captors had used reports of Kerry-led protests to taunt him and his fellow prisoners." Chuck Noël, Frontpage Magazine

o Asked for a recommendation about possible courses of action for Congress to pursue, Kerry stated that he had talked with representatives from Hanoi and from the PRG (Viet Cong) at the Paris peace talks, and mentioned his support for "Madam Binh's points." Madam Win Thi Binh was at that time the Foreign Minister for the PRG.

Can you flesh this out.....there is a story here.... to his meeting with the NV in Paris at the peace talks.

That shows considerable restraint for McCain, for if it were I, I could bear to be in the same room with Mr. Kerry, even if it were theHall of Senate.
