John Kerry: I Committed Atrocities (THE Rare 1971 Audio)

StreamLoad ^ | 3-3-04

Do we really want an SS agent who was "just following orders"? As president? If he really thought what he was doing was evil, the heroic thing would have been to refuse.

> John Kerry, self proclaimed war criminal,
> Democratic Presidential nominee

And the Voter's Remorse will be fun to watch as the Dems
slowly realize that they've nominated a Clinton-approved
Designated Loser.

"I took pahht..."

Young Hanoi John sounded much more like the Kennedys than the new, improved Hanoi John, didn't he?!

Great find...MUD

how did he raze villages when he was on riverine armed interdiction IN A FRIGGIN BOAT? what a load of crap, he cant even stop lying about the bad stuff he didnt do.

[Jadge]

Do you have the text?

HERE IT IS:

Yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed, in that… I took part in shootings in free fire zones, I conducted harassment and interdiction fire, I used 50 caliber machine guns which we were granted…ordered to use, which were our only weapon against people. Uh, I took part in search and destroy missions, in the burning of villages. All of this, is contrary to the laws of warfare, all of this is contrary to the Geneva conventions.

Don't get too excited, there are no real admissions on this tape. He only admits to participating in burning villages, using 50 Cal machine guns against civilians, and doing search and destroy missions. None of these are real war crimes even though he claims it was against the geneva convention.

OH MY GOSH !!!!!
Have Rush, Hannity, FOX or others played this at all?

"...how did he raze villages when he was on riverine armed interdiction IN A FRIGGIN BOAT?"

I believe his Silver Star was fer grounding his boat and rushing the enemy on land, so maybe he kept on going and burnt down the village while he was at it. In any event, he's gonna haveta confront this testimony and either admit he was lying to Congress, or admit that he's a self-confessed War Criminal!!

What a tangled web we weave...MUD

Well, if Kerry speaks with such authority on the atrocities that GIs where supposed to have carried out as a matter of policy, we are not surprised that he was a participant as well as witness. This may have been the reason that he was hustled out of Viet Nam so quickly, on the flimsy pretext that "three Purple Heart awards" justify sending a service member to a non-combat zone. John Kerry was fast becoming another "zombie" soldier, much like Lt. William Calley of My Lai. The chain of command in the Navy sent down the order to remove Kerry from the theater of operations with all haste, before this blew up in their faces.

The transformation into "zombie" was not fully reversed, by the simple act of removing Kerry from the war zone and separating him from active duty. Many of the characteristics persist even today. Monotone speech, vacant expression, seemingly no initiative except by direction from others, an overall lack of personal passion.

And did anyone else besides me notice that when Fox News panned on the Kerry declaration of the various victories, that there was a sign in the foreground, "CNN" with a circle around it and a diagonal slash across, and a caption "CNN is Bad". Not good form to diss one of your main legs of support on the cable networks.

I haven't heard it yet...MUD

Correction to my earlier post. He did not admit to using a 50 cal against civilians, I meant to say he admited using it against people.

[diotima]

They have it. :)

Now let's see if Rush can spot it in his Inbox of thousands...Hope you have a direct dial to his office.

[abner]

He sounds just like a Kennedy! Compare it to his accent at the same time on the Winter Soldier tapes and the accent is gone!
