John Kerry: A Navy Dove Runs for Congress

By SAMUEL Z. GOLDHABER
Crimson Staff Writer

"...One time Kerry was ordered to destroy a Viet Cong village
but disobeyed orders and suggested that the Navy Command
simply send in a Psychological Warfare team to be
friend the villagers with food, hospital supplies,
and better educational facilities."

Joe Conrad -- the immigrant novelist -- he had Kerry down. Kerry's, himself, the doer of atrocities. He said so -- and his every act since says it. The "secret sharers" Joe Conrad wrote about -- that's his "band of brothers".

That sampan -- the grenade to blow up the rice -- what the heck was that? The man was foolish then to the point of injuring people -- burning huts in non-combatant vilages, scaring old men, and children, slaughtering livestock -- all that IS what John Kerry did. The other swifties didn't -- Kerry, his boat. He's the one.

The toughest conspiracies -- the real one's and the one's of great literaure (which approaches reality) -- are those of sharers of vile sins and violent acts. The band of brothers.

All just my opinion!

That is a complete lie. Kerry was reprimanded for "destroying the village" It is in in a PDF file after action report released today. His command wrote that he missed a great opportunity for PsyOps.
