[Interesting Times]

This is the first of 19 transcripts of Jane Fonda's 1972 broadcasts on Radio Hanoi that were preserved in the Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS) archives. The Vietnam Veterans Legacy Foundation has just made them available online for the first time. A number of Fonda's propaganda broadcasts were printed in the Congressional Record and reproduced in Dr. Henry Holzer's book Aid and Comfort: Jane Fonda in North Vietnam. So far as I am aware, this July 10, 1972 broadcast has never before been made public.

Hanoi Jane ping...

[laweeks]

Is she alive? I thought she and that French-looking guy that ran for president were shot as traitors. Golly. What did I miss?

[loreldan]

Substitute "Vietnam" for "Iraq" and she doesn't sound much different than many Democrats today.

[proud_yank]

More people died as a result of communism *after* we pulled out of Vietnam, than died during the war.

Does anyone have the pics of the veteran who spat on her at a booksigning? I think its worthy of being posted here.

[prairiebreeze]

Jane has the blood of thousands, maybe millions of innocent people on her hands because of her part in the anti-war propaganda that weakened American resolve and caused us to withdraw with the mission unfinished.

She and Cronkite and others will be held accountable. In this life or the next.

Jane Fonda should have been prosecuted for treason and spent her adult life in prison. She could have done her exercise program behind bars.

>>We know that there is only one way to end the war, and that is in the Paris peace talks.

...The United States must set a date unconditionally for all troops -- air troops, ground troops, and CIA advisors to withdraw from Indochina.<<


These maggots never change.

If Hanoi Jane were ordered to pray once each day over every single south-east Asian she helped murder, she would need to reincarnate for 100,000 years.

[river rat]

This POS is still alive and can appear in public without anymore fear of being harmed that the average citizen...


Folks we left behind, specifically our ethnic hill tribe allies - were pursued, persecuted and executed for another 20+ years -- fighting alone in the hills...

An armed group finally decided to leave Vietnam - they trekked across Laos and crossed into Thailand with their weapons, asking for sanctuary...just dozen or so years ago!

Most of the rest were killed... To say nothing of the Vietnamese, Laotians and Cambodians killed by the thugs or Communists... The communists made us look like kindergarten kids in comparison..

All because folks believed Fonda, Kerry, Cronkite and the Socialists/Communists in America...

We've NEVER heard a comment from them about how WRONG they were about EVERYTHING.....or apologize for the lies or slander against our warriors..

May she and her kind, rot in the lowest depths of hell...

VVAW Letter of Support
By VVAW National Office

In recent months, VVAW and its credibility have come under attack from the loony Right and the mainstream press. As with the Nixon administration, these new voices are attacking us on whether or not we are really vets and whether we spoke the truth about the war and our participation in it.

Stand with VVAW now. Please sign on to this letter of support and get your friends to do so as well. For over 35 years, Vietnam Veterans Against the War has put itself on the line for veterans and active duty GIs.

Now we are putting ourselves on the line for Vietnam Veterans Against the War. This letter will be run as an advertisement in various publications and appear in the next issue of The Veteran.

The letter is printed below, along with the list of people who have already signed on. To show your support, please fill out the form.

Since its formation Vietnam Veterans Against the War has opposed unjust wars and supported the welfare of men and women on active duty. Whenever there has been a choice between the welfare of GIs and the interests of politicians, VVAW has always supported the welfare of fighting men and women.

The testimony of VVAW members in 1971 during the Winter Soldier Investigation first brought to public attention the conditions of service in Vietnam. Members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War worked tirelessly to establish the credentials and accuracy of each witness before the investigation. A confidential Nixon-administration team led by Charles Colson worked ruthlessly to undermine the testimony of each witness afterward. To this day none of the Winter Soldier Investigation evidence has been shown to have been false.

Vietnam Veterans Against the War has continued to focus attention on the many unmet needs of veterans. Members of VVAW developed the rap groups that served as the model for counseling at veterans' outreach centers. Vietnam Veterans

Against the War was the first organization to draw attention to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), the shameful neglect of patients in VA hospitals, the harmful effect of exposure to Agent Orange, and the inadequacies of educational and employment benefits. VVAW fought for amnesty for war resisters, including vets with bad discharges. VVAW has supported Gulf War veterans in their struggles with Gulf War Syndrome and depleted uranium (DU) ammunition.

The current negative attacks against VVAW are an attack on the whole anti-war movement and must be countered.

This is from VVAW's Website, less anyone doubt that Hanoi Jane did not support the VVAW and was NOT associated and with John (The Snake) Kerry.

The VVAW is still going strong, only now it has targeted the War in Afganistan and Iraq and not only has it helped organize the IVAW (Iraq Veterans Against War) but is actively supporting them.

Is it too late to put her in front of a firing squad? What treason. And our Republic, too weak to defend itself took no action against her, as the Supreme Court of the day in other cases, found that treason was protected speech. If this Republic fails the 60s were responsible.

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
was killed in action by the Communist Vietminh near Hanoi.
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
under the Eisenhower and Nixon administration
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.

I know this is changing the subject, but didn't I read somewhere that Tokyo Rose died recently?
