Vietnamese in Cuba

While a POW in Hanoi, I was interrogated by "The Lump" and another individual who had a Spanish accent. After learning about the "Cuban Program" upon release, I assumed the person with the Spanish accent might have been "Fidel." After my release in 1973, I identified "The Lump" in a photograph taken in Cuba shown to me by a member of a Congressional committee. In the picture, "The Lump" was with a U.S. anti-war contingent. I was told that he had been identified by intelligence agents as being responsible for funneling KGB money to the American anti-war groups, such as those that Jane Fonda led.(9)

The foreign affairs element of the Vietnamese National Liberation Front, code named "CP-72," was positioned only 90 miles off the coast of Florida during the war and their personnel worked closely with the Cuban Government in manipulating the anti-war movement in the United States.

Just some more info on Kerry and his buddies

Where did Kerry's organization get it's money?

[Enterprise]

Kind of my thinking too. But I doubt President Bush Sr would have authorized it, and we know for SURE that draft dodger Billie would NEVER have authorized it.

<< funneling KGB money to the American anti-war groups, such as those that Jane Fonda led. >>

Has this been documented anywhere? Was Kerry's antiwar group a beneficiary of KGB money?

[Savage Beast]

I don't feel like reading this long article. I'm sure it'll all come out on network TV and in the "mainstream" newspapers.

[Savage Beast]

By the way, do you suppose Jimmy and Roselyn thought to ask Fidel about this when they were over there?

[BykrBayb]

I couldn't read the whole article. I can't see through the tears, and my stomach is in knots.

An incredible irony is that the 4th International Symposium on Coma and Death, will be held in Havana, Cuba, March 9-12, 2004. You can check the American fellow-travellers who will attend:

I read a history of the KGB a few years ago. Most Vietnam era leftist groups had KGB minor or major KGB involvement with people and money.

Bump for later reading. Other 'european-type' males were also seen along the HCM trail. Czechs?, E Germans?, Soviets?. Who knows. We made guesses and passed the info up the line.

Thanks for the post.

Maybe a FOIA request to the FBI and DIA is in order.

One cannot say what that proves. Most of those groups probably also had FBI infiltrators.

I'm so glad to see this article posted. No one ever thinks to comment on the pictures of Castro hung behind Viet Cong in documentaries.

Why did we send so many men to die in Southeast Asia while leaving Cuba to serve as launchpad of Chicom and Soviet incusion to Central and South America?

Why wasn't Cuba blown off the map after the 1967 Tri-Continental Conference wherein the Soviets launched the global network of terror and began setting up terrorist training camps in our backyard?

Thanks for the heads-up on the now Clean Hands Deathists.
