This from an Internet source.. the quote from Victor David Hanson was listed elsewhere as being from September 2003 American Legion Magazine.
"The Muslim jihadists have learned very well the lessons of Vietnam as expressed by North Vietnamese General Giapp when he referred to the 1960s anti-war movement as 'his friends'. Victor Davis Hanson documented in 2003: Gen. Giap, in a series of postbellum interviews, confessed that the North Vietnamese were ready to cease aggression under the weight of the 1972 and 1973 bombing campaigns. He then directly associated the reprieve with the welcome efforts of the radical antiwar movement. Indeed he [Giap] told French television that his most important guerrilla ally during the war was the American press. The Vietnam News Agency as early as 1966 wrote 'We praise the American peace champions. The movement of the American people to protest the war of aggression has really become the second front against the U.S. imperialists.' Another communist official, Bui Tinh, claimed that Fonda’s Hanoi visits, press releases and much publicized photo-ops in enemy batteries had helped the communists 'to hold on in the face of battlefield reverses.'"
(Here is a second reference to the source of the Hanson quote.)
My emphasis.. I've posted that "most important guerrilla" comment several times and I just found this source for Victor David Hanson saying it. My sources were a translation of a French TV interview of the general -- that I can no longer locate -- and a comment by a South Vietnamese officer in an article posted by a military history site.
OK American Press, it is your turn to apologize -- some member of Walter "North Vietnamese Communists' Most Trusted Man in America" Cronkite can apologize for him.
Fat chance of getting the American Press to apologize.. getting our forces pulled out of Viet Nam and watching the South fall to Ho is still viewed as a major achievement for "peace" by the skid marks on Journalism's shorts (the American press).
(Note: I did not cite the source for the initial quote above because I am not sure of the nature of the site.. but the quote itself comports well with fact.)
