Funny how they could not find one the Vietnamese that have fled to the USA and ask them their views on the war. No, they ask a Communist, a VC, for their opinion, who agrees and glorifies the Anti War movement. I have friends who are ex-Vietnamese fighters and they say the Communist lied to them about the atrocities the Americans were supposedly doing to the South Vietnamese people. They fought because they though the Americans were enslaving and starving the South. They realized the lies when they got to Saigon and found the prosperity there that could not be compared to the North.

Even today, the South is much more prosperous and capitalistic then the North.

The question we should ask is why does the NY Times and the press HATE America and what we did in Viet Nam? Why the liberal love Communism more than Freedom? And Why they never talk about LBJ and who he escalated and lied about the war?

This morning someone posted the first article I've ever seen that accounts for the opinions of Vietnamese refugees. But it was in The Australian, and talked about Vietnamese-Australian attitudes (which to no surprise are anti-Kerry).

Yes, it's truly astonishing that the NYT can't muster one of the 1.2 million Vietnamese-American refugess (most now U.S. citizens) to speak on the record about Vietnam.

Perhaps that's because V-As consider Kerry to be a "phan boi" traitor.
