Dobbs fails to mention that much of the testimony of the "Winter Soldiers" was discredited, that many of those testifying had not been in Vietnam or were not even veterans, and that all of them avoided helping efforts to prosecute war crime perpetrators. Kerry joined in the lies of enemies of the United States to defeat its forces in Vietnam, all to advance Kerry's political career.

The Naval Investigative Service supposedly looked into the "Winter Soldier Investigation" and came to the conclusions you mention, but a spokesman for the NIS doesn't know if the NIS investigation ever took place.
Only historian Guenter Lewy claims to have seen the NIS report (or heard a summary - he can't remember which).
Better than claiming a debunking of the WSI: demand the release of the WSI witnesses' full military records now, and start the first ever investigation - today.
