****I am comparing this reported abuse by the Iranians of the British hostages and their response to the abuse and response of the American POW’s held by the North Vietnamese...not for two weeks, but for years.

You too, eh?****

The question is...would our people respond with the same bravery as the American POW’s held in North Vietnamese cages, after 40 more years of American (democrat) leftist infestation/indocrination?

I don’t know...I wish I could say “yes” ....but I don’t know.

I'm not sure the Vietnamese thing is an apt analogy, considering we were at war with North Vietnam and there was no chance of quick release for our airmen whether they cooperated or not. They didn't have the option to win their freedom through public apology, I don't think. Although Perhaps they'd have declined to apologize anyway, rather than become a propaganda tool for an enemy in a shooting war.
