WASHINGTON (AFP) - A US anti-war group vowed to surround the White House in a sea of demonstrators during coordinated protests scheduled to take place in Washington, as well as Los Angeles and San Francisco on September 24.

The ANSWER Coalition expects more than 100,000 people, from families of US soldiers to trade unions and diverse religious groups, to take part in the demonstrations against the war in Iraq.

Good, we have plenty of time to organize another Patriot's March. I wonder how many cops the leftists plan to kill at this one?

Thanks to Nixon
the lies of Hanoi Kerry and Hanoi Jane
are being told again.
And our military are being slandered in Gitmo, Iraq and Afghanistan

Hanoi Kerry and War Crimes in Vietnam

Hanoi Kerry went before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in 1971
to accuse the United States military
of committing massive numbers of war crimes in Vietnam.

Too bad that because Nixon failed to uphold the law,
we are still stuck with Hanoi Jane and Hanoi Kerry.
If Nixon hadn't caved into the minority anti-war crowd
and listened to the Silent Majority
Hanoi Jane AND Hanoi Kerry
would have been prosecuted for their treason in the 70's,
while Nixon was still President.

Keep in mind that Nixon was directly involved in Viet Nam,
as Vice President, going back to at least 1955.

26 Sep 1945 - The first death of an American serviceman in Vietnam occurred.
OSS (Office of Special Operations) Major (Lieutenant Colonel) A. Peter Dewey

May 1950 President Harry S Truman authorised $10 million in aid to the French for their war in Viet Nam.
By January 1951, $150 million had been given in aid.
1953-61 Dwight D. Eisenhower 34th US President
1953-61 Richard M. Nixon Vice President
1953 - The US is supporting the French in the amount of $1 billion per year--
33% of all US foreign aid--which is 80% of the total cost to the
. US Secretary of State, John Foster Dulles (under Eisenhower) first voices the 'Domino Theory':
if one country in Southeast Asia falls to the Communists, they will all fall, one by one.

12 Feb 55 - President Eisenhower's administration sends 1st 350 U.S. advisers to South Vietnam
to train the South Vietnamese Army

8 Jun 56 - The first American of record to die in Vietnam
was Air Force Tech Sergeant Richard B. Fitzgibbon Jr.
His son, Richard B. Fitzgibbon III, died in Vietnam Sep 7, 1965.
8 Jun 56 Has been formally recognized by the Pentagon as the first American officially to die in that war.

5 Sep 56 - President Eisenhower tells a news conference that the French are
"involved in a hopelessly losing war in Indochina" 1956 The US believed in that Ho Chi Minh would have won any election held in Viet Nam and used their influence over the government of the State of Viet Nam to ensure that the election was not held

About Vietnam

The Vietnam war was the longest in our nation's history.
1st American advisor was killed on June 08, 1956,
and the last casualties in connection with the war occurred on May 15, 1975, during the Mayaquez incident. Approximately 2.7 million Americans served in the war zone; 300,000 were wounded and approximately 75,000 permanently disabled. Officially there are still 1,991 Americans unaccounted for from SE Asia.

Vietnam was a savage, in your face war where death could and did strike from anywhere with absolutely no warning. The brave young men and women who fought that war paid an awful price of blood, pain and suffering. As it is said: "ALL GAVE SOME ... SOME GAVE ALL"
The Vietnam war was not lost on the battlefield. No American force in ANY other conflict fought with more determination or sheer courage than the Vietnam Veteran.  For the first time in our history America sent it's young men and women into a war run by inept politicians who had no grasp of military strategies and no moral will to win. They were led by "top brass" who were concerned mainly with furthering their own careers, most neither understood the nature of the war nor had a clue about the impossible mission with which they'd tasked their soldiers.  And the war was reported by a self serving Media who penned stories filled with inaccuracies, deliberate omissions, biased presentations and blatant distorted interpretations because they were more interested in a story than the truth! It can be debated that we should never have fought that war. It can also be argued that the young Americans who fought so courageously, never losing a single major battle, helped in a huge way to WIN THE COLD WAR.

Do they have any alternate plans other than just "protesting the war"? September will be about the time Iraqis vote to ratify their new Constitution and set up elections for a democratic government, if I'm not mistaken. What tools these ANSWER protesters will look like in the face of that.

[smoothsailing]

BUMP! Commies and queers, what a waste of good manure.

[TheDon]

You're right, of course. They are singing to the choir.

[VeniVidiVici]

Man, I can't make it up there in September. I'll be in VA in August. Can they move it?

[popdonnelly]

Hey, uninformed leftist protestors. Kofi Annan and the EU say Iraq is making great progress. You wouldn't want to destroy all that, would you?

[Delta 21]

If they had any balls or support they would try it on the 4th of July. What better day for a patriotic affirmation of the 1st amendment.

Unless they think there might be people there that disagree with them. (?!?)

[popdonnelly]

Yep, these people were happy to sell out their country for the sake of a small bunch of communists. And they are willing to sell it out again. Hard, but true.

RE: "ANSWER was a front organization set up by the KGB."

ANSWER was ...IS a (Communist) front organization set up by the KGB.

BUMP!

Hey, ANSWER:

[Howie66]

BRING IT ON!!

[sauropod]

We'll be there to greet them.

[sauropod]

Some times it is not fun.

They are disgusting people.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

They only pull these stunts because nobody else is paying any attention to them these days. Let the morons have their freak show; I still won't care.

[brushcop]

I just mailed Durbinladen a flaming letter he can hold in his hand and then shred it. I've been writing a number of these clowns, including RINOs, my favorite target. My two Senators (Hutchison/Cornyn) are sure quiet and I told them so; come on, get some guts people! Maybe the Kay Bailey fan club will tell me all the great things she had done about this flap, yeah, right.

My Rep. (Bonilla) is usually a stand-up guy and I encouraged him to do so again as he has on many really hot button issues but he too needs to be more vocal about these traitorous remarks--but he's QUIET too. These are people sorely lacking in fortitude, they've been cowed by the Left, they are instantly ready to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.

Tet68, it's great to read someone of my generation say almost verbatim what I'm always ranting. Thanks! Does my heart good.

"a flaming letter"

Hey, brushcop, why don't you post the letter here so we can enjoy it?

And I expect the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders to show up at my place for a weekend of cheap sex.
