Jane Fonda: U.S. Troops Are 'Killing Machines'

"Hanoi Jane" Fonda is claiming that ever since Vietnam, U.S. troops have been trained to commit atrocities against innocent civilians as a matter of military policy.

"Starting with the Vietnam War we began training soldiers differently," the anti-American actress says in an email to the Washington Post.

Fonda claims she learned of the policy switch in "secret meetings" she had with military psychologists "who were really worried about what was happening to our combat personnel."

One doctor, she insists, told her U.S. troops had been deliberately trained to be "killing machines."

"This began," Fonda maintained, "because the military discovered that in World War II and Korea, [U.S.] soldiers weren't killing enough."

"So they changed training procedures" to teach troops how to commit atrocities.

Still, the anti-war gadfly cautions, it's important not to blame the soldiers themselves for carrying out war crimes.

Recalling the "Winter Soldier" hearings that she and John Kerry staged in 1971, Fonda lamented: "When you put young people into an atrocity-producing situation where enemy and civilian are commingled, where the 'other side' is dehumanized, we cannot be surprised."

Anti-war vets now returning from Iraq, Fonda cautioned, should be listened to instead of being dismissed as "unpatriotic."

"We have not learned the lessons of Vietnam," she declared.

One of which would have been to throw in front of a firing squad.

Fonda needs to drink deeply from a big ole mug full of STFU!

Yeah...we got trained to commit attrocities allrighty. They taught us REAL GOOD how to put them panties over the enemy's head a special way to maximize fear, demoralization, and cause disruption among his ranks.

WTF does she think we're suppose to do?....reason with the enemy? I think she should be the negotiator. I wonder how many little splinter groups she'd get to talk to before one decided to hog tie her, demand ransom, behead her, and put the video on the Internet?

As a matter of fact, I do believe there are about four peace protestors over there in Iraq who are in that very predicament at the moment. Sucks to be them. :-) I'll bet they'd love for some U.S. "Killing Machines" to show up any time now.

Robo cop was a cool movie. Those were neat killing machines.

"One doctor, she insists, told her U.S. troops had been deliberately trained to be 'killing machines.'"

Well, duh!

[nwrep]

What's wrong with being killing machines? Sounds like they are doing their jobs.

"When you put young people into an atrocity-producing situation where enemy and civilian are commingled, where the 'other side' is dehumanized, we cannot be surprised.""

She is such a nonhuman dog, demon, pig, monkey... I can't stand it... hey se's right, that does feel good.

Dirty job but someone has to do it.

Might as well do it the best on the planet.

I suppose Hanoi Jane's idea of a soldier is Meatball in Kelly's Heros. Played by fellow traveler and sometime lover, Donald Sutherland.

Only Henry could be "fonda" this opportunist little prostitute.

[Natural Law]

This just shows how hollow her apologies to the vets were a few years ago when she was trying to hawk a book. The only thing about her that is genuine is her hatred of America (fake boobs, fake teeth, fake face skin, fake nose, fake hair, fake abs, fake tush, etc.....)

[Leatherneck_MT]

Why is this worthless slut still breathing my air?

[R. Scott]

Hey Hanoi Jane -
The purpose of our military is to kill people and destroy things. It is not the World’s Largest Pizza Delivery Service.

[R. Scott]

When was the last time anyone was tried for treason in this country?

I believe it was during our last declared war.

[sport]

Because of our troops is why this bitch has been to enjoy such a luxurious lifestyle in the U.S. The ________ [you fill in the blank I will get banned if I do] traitor should be doing Federal time for her actions during the Vietnam War and deported to North Korea upon her release.

[SwatTeam]

She should have been charged with treason years ago.

It's not too late. After reading this so-called email from her, I would like to see her turned loose all by herself on Parris Island or whereever the Marines train to become killing machines. God bless the Marines and curse this b#$%^ Fonda.

[bray]

A she dinosaur stuck in the quagmire of Vietnam. Wonder why she hasn't moved to her Commie Island Paradise? Oh yeah, they don't have Limosines there!

"This began," Fonda maintained, "because the military discovered that in World War II and Korea, [U.S.] soldiers weren't killing enough."

Heartwarming news for the Wermacht, the Imperial Japanese Army and the North Koreans who didn't get "killed enough".

That's right.

Fear us.

Interesting how she's willing to associate herself with JF'nK now that the election is over. Did she not get the memo that the Winter Soldier hearings were totally bogus?

[DocRock]

I just received a fax from a relative in sniper training. He acquired the longest range EVER on a target in sniper training. Over 2 miles.

Yeah Jane, I agree, U.S. Troops are "Killing Machines".
