The first documentary evidence that Vietnamese communists were directly steering John Kerry's antiwar group Vietnam Veterans Against the War has been discovered in a U.S. archive, according to a researcher who spoke with WorldNetDaily.
One freshly unearthed document, captured by the U.S. from Vietnamese communists in 1971, indicates the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese delegations to the Paris peace talks that year were used as the communications link to direct the activities of Kerry and other antiwar activists who attended.
Kerry insists he attended the talks only because he happened to be in France on his honeymoon and maintains he met with both sides. But previously revealed records indicate the future senator made two, and possibly three, trips to Paris to meet with Vietcong leader Madame Binh then promote her plan's demand for U.S. surrender.

Shazam! That pic looks like Gomer Pyle.
Sorry Gomer if I questioned your patriotism by that comparison.
Wonder what Peck is doing these days. That'd be interesting if he was still hanging around Kerry's campaign. . .
Will the NY Post pick this and run with it?????

I am anxious to see lie # 1,000,0000,0000.9 that the traitor will use to escape this intelligence? Bush/Cheney 2004
Taking orders from the Vietnamese communists ???
Oh ain't that just special
Kerry's just like a fine whine!
Maybe CNN will report this.
While I agree with you that the missing records are a big question on Kerry's characterization of discharge, that discharge could not be a Dishonorable Discharge. I am a Judge Advocate General (JAG) officer of 14 years in the military. A DD is reserved for the worst offender under the Uniform Code of Military Justice and can only be given by a Court-Martial. Moreover, it is a characterization given to enlisted members of the military. Kerry, an officer, could receive a Dismissal as part of a Court-Martial sentence. While this is comparable to a DD, it can also only be given by a Court-Martial. Since it would have been next to impossible to cover up a Kerry Court-Martial, it is highly unlikely that he received a Dismissal. However, a less than honorable discharge characterization could have been given by another means under the Navy Regulations. I like you do find it quite curious that a board was involved in finally giving Kerry an Honorable Discharge after Carter became President. I come to the same conclusion that a less than Honorable Discharge characterization must have been given to Kerry's term of service."Editor's Reply: Obviously the title of this column was designed to draw attention not so much to questions about Kerry's discharge as to put some heat on Kerry to release ALL of his military records -- and it has done just that. As we said, we suspect that Kerry was discharged was "other than honorable." Our concern is that his unreleased records may reference proceedings (at the time he was separated from the Navy) to ongoing classified criminal investigations (which have been confirmed through FOI records) by the Justice Department (FBI) into the connections between the Kerry, the VVAW and Communist Party USA. The FOI documents we have received are so heavily redacted that it is difficult to determine the full extent of Kerry's connections to the CPUSA, and how that connection relates to his later meetings with Communists in Paris. The FBI's case file may have necessitated that a less than honorable discharge be negotiated for Kerry in order to protect ongoing investigations. Bottom line -- as we said, Kerry can dispute this charge by releasing ALL of his records -- NOW. We would be please to write a retraction -- if one is in order!

Let's not go overboard. This helps connect the dots between the Vietnamese communists and Kerry, but there was already an enormous amount of evidence of that relationship available to anybody who cared to look. In my view, the most damning aspect of the new information is the way Kerry exploited the families of American POWs to push the talking points conveyed to the antiwar movement via Madame Binh and other communist representatives in Paris.
Maybe, I know that CNN has just reversed course on the weapon's munition story reported by the NYT. Both on TV and website they're reporting the story that NBC News reported contradicting the NYT today.
Don't recall that...tell me more...
To all of you that have help bring the traitor to light, thank you.
Thank you for your service both here, and to those who served in Vietnam, thank you for your service there.
30 years ago you all took an oath to protect our nation and our constitution and then did so bravely. Today you have shown the country and the world that you kept that oath above and beyond your call and have continued to protect us and our constitution again.
You are all American heroes, then and now.
I am humbled to be in the presence of all of you.
Thank you,
From A grateful American
