JOHN KERRY’S PHOTO HANGS ON A WALL OF THE VIETNAMESE COMMUNIST WAR REMNANTS MUSEUM, ALSO KNOWN AS THE WAR CRIMES MUSEUM, IN HO CHI MINH CITY ( FORMERLY SAIGON) IN A ROOM TITLED “ THE WORLD SUPPORTS VIETNAM IN IT’S RESISTANCE”.
GENERAL VO NYUYEN GIAP, HIGHEST RANKING OFFICER OF THE NORTH VIETNAMESE ARMY DURING THE WAR WROTE IN 1985 THAT JOHN KERRY AND THE ANTI -WAR MOVEMENT IN AMERICA WAS PIVOTAL IN WINNING THE WAR FRR THE COMMUNISTS.
Let it be true.
The American people have already decided that it was right for the US to intervene in Kosovo and kick Milosevic out. I agree with the rest of the population.
Taking money from the biggest Kosovo group (no matter how terrorist or how Islamic they are) isn't going to get any airplay or play at all.
A deal with Syria would raise the hair on my neck. But 70% of the population wouldn't understand what it is all about anyway. The Dems certainly wouldn't think ill of it and may actually look at it as Kerry starting to become the statesman he says he will be. Maybe a few % of the undecided will move to Bush if this is the story which just might be enough to put him over the top to a big victory.
Taking money from Iranian operatives? I already knew about this and posted it on another board. You guessed it, no play either.
It has to be bigger than these three possibilities for all the hype surrounding it.
This could be the October Surprise that kills John Kerry by a margin of 50 states.John Kerry, the Democratic presidential candidate, is being given money by an Albanian terrorist organization known as the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA or UCK in Albanian).KLA have prior links to the Democrats and extensive links to terrorism - they invited the KLA leader to attend the DNC. KLA's terrorist activities and one of its members going to a John Kerry fundraiser can be seen through a Dutch documentary that can be seen here. The US Government has labelled KLA a terrorist organisation, and some of their members are facing charges for war crimes. A Washington Times article from 1999 (deleted, but also linked here) outlined the relationship of KLA and Al-Qaeda, plus Clinton's support of the KLA. More articles on the KLA's radical ideology and workings can be found here.
The KLA is currently smuggling weapons into Kosovo as part of a plot to attack American and other UN peacekeepers, should the UN Security Counsel refuse their demand for Kosovo's secession from Serbia and Montenegro.
In order to fully understand the significance of John Kerry's involvement with the KLA it is first necessary to understand what sort of an organization the KLA is. The KLA is a terrorist organization with ties to Osama bin Laden and the Iranian government. The KLA's main objective is to break Kosovo, which has been an integral part of Serbia for centuries, away from Serbia.
But back to the documentary - 11:08 into the video, we see KLA recruiter and illegal immigrant Florin Krasniqi at a John Kerry fundraiser with a few other KLA members. Then the defining moment - the KLA terrorists are shown, on video, financially contributing to the John Kerry campaign. Shortly afterwards, the video shows Democrats Wesley Clark and Richard Holbrooke having a nice laugh with the terrorists.
A quick check of Fundrace.org found that Florin Krasniqi has donated to the Kerry campaign, and that Florin Krasniqi has raised 30 million for KLA, who we have already established is a terrorist organisation.
This could be devastating to the Kerry campaign, so if you're reading this, I'm begging you - e-mail your favourite blogs, with this information - send them the link to this page and ask them to research it for themselves. And if it breaks in the bigger blogs - LGF, Powerline, Right Wing News, National Review's The Corner, Blogs For Bush and Instapundit come to mind - then we need to get this to people like Drudge, Sean Hannity, Brit Hume etc.
UPDATE: Welcome all Captain's Quarters readers. Captain Ed from that site makes a great point, that should be mentioned: "Does that mean that Kerry actively seeks the support of terrorists and their cash? I highly doubt it, although if true the Kosovars' access to Kerry shows a complete lack of vetting by his foreign-policy staff. Richard Holbrooke should know better than to be taking money from people connected to organizations designated as possible terror groups by the DHS." This is very true - it's not Kerry's fault they donated to support him, but this cannot look good no matter how you spin it.

Lots of facts and quotes about the president-wannabe at the John F. Kerry Timeline.
.
The KLA was declared a terrorist organization with ties to Bin Laden in 1998.
It's always good to remember that Clinton raped Juanita Broderick and the democrats didn't care.
Of course, to me, he's always been pretty "offensive"!
He can up with a story that detailed the connection to a man named,Martin Indyk, a former Clinton advisor. It's somewhere on one of these 1000, post.
Yes, like Sinclair showing "Stolen Honor." All hype no action.
But I'm like a dog with a bone, I say Syria. I hope I'm proved wrong....
So... where is this "scoop". So far all talk.
The magnitude of such things tends to elude the masses. They usually justify it with an "everybody does it, so what?" and change the channel.
I'm sorry, but I'm encountering a number of swing voters, and they're anything but thoughtful. They're actually depressingly stupid. It seems like the bigger the story, the less willing they are to think about it.
I hope I'm wrong. But I have very little faith in anybody who is still considering Kerry at this late stage. These are people who have already clearly demonstrated that they just don't get it.
It's them I'm speaking to, here. Not the legitimacy of the story.
The same "American People" that put Clinton in office for 8 years.
Yeah, I been checking all over the net since yesterday looking for the scoop and so far nuthin! Maybe soon!!!
>>Anyone care to guess which major newspaper
There isn't any -- Wall St. Journal doesn't do hit pieces.

It takes too much explaining for short sound bites. Undecideds clearly don't have the attention span for much more or they would already know who they were going to vote for. IMHO
