I am digging around in Arnett's past. Guess what pivotal quote in Viet Nam was "heard" by Peter Arnett?

"It became necessary to destroy the town (BanTre) in order to save it."

This quote, which was alledgedly made by an Air Force Major Chester L. Brown to Peter Arnett was one of the most effective bits of anti war propaganda to come out of the Viet Nam conflict.

The problem is, "Major Brown" may not have said it at all, it was probably created out of whole cloth by Peter Arnett even back then!

Here is some source material, go about 80% down the link, it is partially in Vietnamese and partially in English.

We need to track down this "Major Brown" quote, if this was one of traitor Benedict Arnett's first "Big Lies", that will be important to know today. Has Arnett been an America hating mole since the 60s?

I read elsewhere his mentor was an Australian communist and virulent America hating reporter named ?Burchett?, this should also be tracked down.

Good diggina and let us know what you find.

I'm sure that Arnett was a paid communist mole during the Nam Years and post Nam.

When the USSR was on its death bed, he got into bed with his new cash cow, his butt buddy Soddomite.

Now that cash cow is gone. It will be interesting to see who Arnett lines up for his new cash cow.

I still have not learned how to post photos but I recommend looking at this link to today's Garner cartoon in the Washington Times. It is the epitome of Saddam and Baghdad Pete.
