Jim Hoft connects the dots between two anti-military smear artists.

I like her question:

Do you or someone else at the Post plan on following up?

From Gateway Pundit...

Jimmy Massey & John Kerry Have Too Much in Common

Last year during the runup to the November election, Arianna Huffington asked us all to look deep into our hearts and answer this gut-wrenching question:
"This post goes out to all those good ol' boy soldiers out there who insist that Kerry is a traitor and aided the enemy in a time of war. My question is, are these soldiers traitors too? ...Hoffman, Brandon Hughey, and Staff Sergeant Jimmy Massey?"
Today we can assure Arianna that the answer is a resounding, "Yes". Yes, Arianna Jimmy Massey is a traitor, too!

Jimmy Massey the story telling veteran from the Iraq War and poster child from the Iraqi Veterans Against the War, got his training from the Vietnam Veterans Against the War, another group known for their abhorrent lies during a previous American war!

The St. Louis Post Dispatch knows the real story about Anti-War Hero and friend of Cindy Sheehan, Jimmy Massey.

Now, it appears that Jimmy Massey and the New Iraqi Veterans Against the War (IVAW) are getting their training plans from the Old Vietnam Veterans Against the War(VVAW). And, wouldn't you know,... it was the Swift Boat Veterans who broke this story last year during the presidential election season.

Last year there was an article posted on the Swift Boat and POW Veterans for Truth website by by Beatrice 1000. She described the whole interwoven connections between the two anti-war groups from Vietnam and Iraq. There was even a passing of the guard ceremony between the two groups in Central Park! It appears that the new bunch is getting their training from the old guys:

I have found some old-time VVAW names & others, involved now with VAIW & IVAW:

Jan Barry (Jan Barry Crumb)-
--1967: founder of VVAW; moderator at WSI in Detroit, Jan/Feb 1971.

Joe Bangert
--9/07/70: With Kerry/Fonda at Operation RAW (Rapid American Withdrawal), Valley Forge, PA
--1/31/71: Testified at WSI: ...the men were afraid to complain about such atrocities because those who complained were subject to harsh discipline by company commanders.
--FBI/Sec. 2, p38, data on flyer about WSI testimony being handed out: JOE BANGERT, 22, Sgt. E-5, helicopter gunner (1968-69), PA resident, testifies to the disembowlment and skinning of Vietnamese woman by an American, after she was killed by ARVNs. Body was hung on a tree as a warning to other gooks. He further testifies to killing villagers - 20 or more women, children, old men -- in helicopter assaults near Cam Lo, and of civilians shot without provocation along Highway 1 near Dong Ha in Oct. 1969
--5/19/97: Paid respects at tomb of Ho Chi Minh (indicated founding date of the VVAW - 5/19/67 - coincides with birthdate of late Vietnamese President)
--2003: At Joe's Pub in NY went on stage to sing "Ballad of Ho Chi Minh" in original Vietnamese (ode to the pres. of No. VN)
--2004: Endorses VAIW

David Cline

Daniel Ellsberg
--1965-67 - worked at US Embassy in Saigon; 6/30/71 leaked pentagon papers
--8/25/71 per FBI/S5,p.231: spoke along with Kerry/VVAW & McGovern & others at the National Student Assoc. Congress in CO
--2004: Truth Telling Project- urging people to leak secret govt. docs.
--2004: Endorses VAIW
--Ellsberg: Truth Telling Project: 7/12/04 AP - "Pentagon Papers Whistleblower Calls for National Security Leaks", by Martha Mendoza (full article: SOURCE)

Michael Hoffman

Bobby Muller (Mueller?)
--1978 founds the Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA). The VVA also describes John Kerry as a "co-founder" of the organization. In the late 1980s, Mueller & the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation (VVAF) split from the VVA.
--Led a VVAF delegation to Hanoi, where he praised the communist leadership of Vietnam & laid a wreath on the grave of Ho Chi Minh.

Stephen S. Noetzel

Barry Romo
--4/71: involved in Dewey Canyon protest and threw his ribbons
--12/72: Went to North Vietnam with peace delegation which included Joan Baez. Romo was the first combat veteran to visit Hanoi.
--2004: Contact & National Coordinator for VVAW
--2004: Contact for VAIW
--2004: Assoc. with IVAW thru Cline

And, in a public ceremony, the torch was passed in Central Park on July 24, 2004 from the Vietnam Vets Against the War to the Iraqi War Veterans Against the War.

...One grizzled ex-Marine climbs a shelf-rock and yells out "Let's hear it for IRAQ VETERANS AGAINST THE WAR!". Joe goes on to cite the Announcement of the Founding of IVAW "7/24/04, in Boston MA!" "Come on up here Mike, and say a few words". This call interrupts a historic moment, taking place just a few yards away. Mike Hoffman, founder of Iraq Veterans Against the war, is engaged in quiet conversation, with the ever understated Jan Barry, founder of Vietnam Veterans Against the War. The Passing of the Torch. Then Mike is up on stage... introducing addnl. members of IVAW, and thanking the Vietnam Vets for their Inspiration and Mentorship. Each of the New Vets takes their turn at "a few words for the brothers".. "Just like you guys", says one, "we are growing like wildfire because, like yours, our leadership has failed us, and our cause is JUST". "Just like you guys", says another, "we answered The Bell, and did our job. Now it's time for THEM to do right by US!".

Dave Cline says a few words to define the Moment. Like many old Vietnam Vets, he recognized long ago, that the Invasion of Iraq had DEEP parallels with our sad mis-adventure in Vietnam. For starters, yet another immoral, illegal war. He's been working tirelessly since the very start of the Bombing of Baghdad, to bring the collective experience of VVAW to the grunts in uniform, doing the dirty work of our Government, in the heat, and sand, and chaos, that is Iraq. "The torch is being passed", says Dave. "Right here, Right now, my long-time dream is coming true, and the Torch is being PASSED!". A mighty cheer arises in Central Park...

Michelle Malkin has more on Jimmy Massey today and wrote about his support of an American draft dodger last year.

GOP and The City reports that Jimmy Massey CD's are now 50% off!

Previously on Jimmy Massey:
Cindy Sheehan's Anti-War Marine is a Fraud!

OMG! Change the hair and he's Al Franken!

As usual, anti-American liberal swine have found a lying traitor they can be proud of.

We knew their dishonest "we support the troops but not the war" mantra wouldn't last long. They live to trash the military and everyone in it. Just ask John Kerry.

Ping - Ping - Ping

I would love to send this idiots to France right now.

I always wonder, in a situation such as this, if there isn't some way to even up the score. Some sort of retribution that can be inflicted on scum like this.

They cause all of this damage to innocent parties, in this case almost any one who is serving in the military, and then they get to waltz because of cover provided by the leftists.

There's simply no price to pay and so others are encouraged to emulate.

Isn't there some way to put a little 'payback' on this POS?

Public humiliation by the new media seems to be the best medicine.

So far the St. Louis Dispatch and CNN of the liberal MSM have covered the story. And I'm sure there are a few more by now.

It's times like this that I wished I had listened to my old man and had gone to law school.

I would become a legal crusader of the right and go after these jerks for slander, etc, whatever, just like the radical lawyers of the left have so successfully done over the last 70 years.

We don't have a Morris Dees of the Southern Poverty Law Center. This POS jumps in everytime there is a threat from the right and stifles it with lawsuits, etc.

It would be great to see Massey sued and the profits from his book deal 'redistributed' to something worthwhile like an educational fund for children of Marine KIA's.

Very good!

Jimmy Massey has been a bigger hit overseas than he has in the US. Massey gave testimony at a Canadian hearing for Spc. Hinzmen. Hinzmen was was one the antiwar dolts who did an international interview on Islamonline.net.

"former" Marine, my ass.

Let's just call him an EX-marine, and be done with it.

What was this guy's MOS?

He looks like he was the CMEO of some rear-area logistics outfit, or maybe the receptionist for some JAGs.

That puts him in the same select group as Lee Harvey Oswald.

Gee... I sure would hate to see him have some kinda accident or sum'tim.

As a Marine, I'd like to take a horse whip to this lying bastard!

Nice links! A couple more:

Recruiter-turned-peacenik hits nerve in N.C.

Their headline:
"NEWS YOU WON'T FIND ON CNN"

My headline:
"SWALLOW-BEFORE-READING-BARF ALERT!"
Kill! Kill! Kill!

"The book was being released first in France -- and in French -- because, he said, 'I didn't find an American publisher.'"

His publisher said that, while an English language version of the book was still pending, a Spanish edition would be coming out early next year.

BUMP for truth!

And, of course a FReeper broke a version of the story well before this! Oh, well....
