Post his e mail when you find it — I’d like to thank him too.

Lest we forget:

“In July-August 1972 Fonda made her infamous trip to North Vietnam. By this time, over 50,000 Americans had been killed in the war. While there, she posed for pictures on an anti-aircraft gun that had been used to shoot down American planes, and she volunteered to do aradio broadcast from Hanoi. She made approximately eight radio addresses, during which she told American pilots in the area:

‘Use of  these bombs or condoning the use of these bombs makes one a war criminal … and in the past, in Germany and Japan, men who committed these kinds of crimes were tried and executed.’ 

Fonda’s propaganda efforts played a major role in prolonging the war and increasing the death toll. As North Vietnamese Colonel Bui Tin explained in a postwar interview with The Wall Street Journal, the American antiwar movement ‘was essential to our strategy. Visits to Hanoi by people like Jane Fonda . . . gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reverses.’”

Her actions are unforgivable, IMO.

I’m a Vietnam vet who heard Fonda call us `babykillers and war criminals’ on the shortwave in 1972. We could feel & see how NVA morale was strengthened by her treasonous words broadcast from Hanoi.

I have waited over forty years to learn of Jane Fonda meeting a violent end. However, Satan protects his own.

Bravo to this theater owner. Just like the restaurant owner years ago who refused to let Fonda enter after she bellowed, “Do you know who I am!!!?”

He replied, “Yes, I know who you are and you are not welcome here.”

I will rejoice at the news of the death of Jane Fonda.
