Hanoi Approved of Role Played By Anti-War Vets
The documents - one dubbed a "circular" and the other a "directive" - were captured in 1971 and are part of a trove of material from the war currently stored at the Vietnam Archive at Texas Tech University at Lubbock. Originally organized by Douglas Pike, a major scholar who is now deceased, the archive contains more than 20 million documents. Many are available online at the Virtual Vietnam Archive and, as the election has heated up, have been the focus of a scramble for insights into Mr. Kerry's anti-war activities. The Circular and the Directive are listed as items numbered 2150901039b and 2150901041 respectively. Their authenticity was confirmed by Stephen Maxner, archivist at the Vietnam Archive.
I am afraid that release of these documents could win the election for Kerry. These documents could convince some Nader voters that Kerry is worthy of their vote. Most Democrats I know would just claim that these are fakes and an October surprise. It is sad how far in the sand the Democratic Ostriches have buried their heads.
