If the media covered WWII the way they have covered recent military actions, we would all be speaking German or Japanese now.

So that's 320 incidents over 4015 days, that's one every 12days from over one million war fighters in country. What American city has a better crime rate?

So, MAYBE one (1) "Winter Soldier" wasn't lying out his ass. But even if he was, John Kerry's still proud of leading the enemy proganda effort stateside.

This article reminds me of the "combat axiom"; "You can tell how important an enemy position is by how desperately he defends it."

These are leftist memes that help hold their coalition together:

"The United States lost the Vietnam War of Independence. The U.S. was the aggressor. It was the anti-war faction that won. The U.S. killed tens of thousands of civilian non-combatants. The Viet-Cong were the good guys merely fighting for their freedom."

Your excellent article attacks these premises on their face and refutes them. Outstanding!

Too bad we do not have a 'blockbuster' film. . .telling the truth of John Kerry; his life before. . .during and post war.

The truth. . .flashed up, of course, just enough to get past the dullness of the man himself.

"Yes, indeed- John Kerry thinks it's 1971 all over again. Yesterday, on "Face the Nation"
John Kerry once again slams American troops- Check it out-

"And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the-of-the historical customs, religious customs."

Here is the transcript for "Face the Nation"-

http://www.cbsnews.com/htdocs/pdf/face_120405.pdf

You will find this statement at the bottom of page 4 and the top of page 5.



"When former Attorney General Ramsey Clark isn’t defending Saddam Hussein, or giving speeches for the crypto-Stalinist International ANSWER, he’s acting as counsel for the Palestine Liberation Organization, trying to prevent families of murdered Jews from collecting on judgments against the PLO."
Little Green Footballs ^ | November 28, 2005 | Charles Johnson


From Kerry's "The New Soldier":

Al Hubbard Sgt., 22 Troop Carrier Squadron Aug. ’65-June ’66
Emotions: Walking down the flight line at Saigon past stacks of aluminum cases containing American bodies and past stacks of aluminum luggage containing American currency. Seeing the tight, sad face of an Airman loading the bodies aboard a dirty Air Force Transport and the wide smiling face of a stewardess greeting the passengers aboard a clean Pan American Clipper Jet. Hearing a Vietnamese beg you to leave his country and an American colonel tells you to bomb his country. Hearing a Vietnamese invite you to live in his home, after the war and an American explain why you can’t live in his block, after the war. Flying over barren, brown, safe American held terrain and over lush, green unsafe enemy terrain. Feeling happy to be leaving a country in which you do not belong and sad to be returning to a country in which you are not allowed to belong. Sacrificing a portion of your consciousness so you won’t have to deal with being there and building mental blocks so you won’t have to deal with having been there.

- Al Hubbard, proven fraud who never set foot in Viet Nam. The only Vietnamese he ever met was when he was collaborating with the North Vietnamese in Paris on the American Communist Party's nickel.

John Kerry's explanation: "He (Hubbard) simply exaggarated his particular position.
But nobody knew it at the time.
And those things happen."

Thank you for continuing to set the record straight.

some VVAW witnesses demonRATS simply repeated stories and rumors they had heard as though these were their own experiences, in order to make atrocities seem far more common than they really were.

It is amazing how well the demonRATS and their propaganda arm, the ENEMEDIA, have learned their lessons.

Over there in '69, after the Tet Offensive, much of the talk was of what was found in Hue. It never made the papers. Investigative reporters never left Saigon to look into the mass murder committed by VC and NVA troops on The Imperial Capital's school teachers, university professors, doctors, lawyers and elites of the society. What happened in Hue was ignored. What happened at My Lai was headlines and stories for years.

I still don't have a handle on what happened at My Lai. Most came through the media filter. I do have a picture of what happened in Hue, unfiltered, from Marines and Viet Namese who were there.

And the news reporters were still in Saigon's hotels and bars.........writing copy.
