Lies sell
The dis-proved 1971 movie and project known as “Winter Soldier” is
going to have a re-awakening. It will be shown first at Film Society
of Lincoln Center – followed by other public screenings in Chicago,
Detroit, Hartford, Minneapolis and other venues reports the NY Times.
Winter Soldier was a 1970-71 anti-Vietnam War project where John Kerry
and allegedly Jane Fonda collaborated by raising funds to interview
returning Vietnam veterans to document war crimes. It has since been
proven that the testimony gathered was false -- and that many of those
testifying were never in Vietnam, or confessed to lying in order to
‘bed’ women at the anti-war events.
NewsMax reports on the reaction of Veterans:
B.G. Burkett, Vietnam veteran and author of "Stolen Honor: How the
Vietnam Generation Was Robbed of its Heroes and its History," tells
NewsMax, "It's amazing how a paper like the New York Times would
publish such a story without vetting or commenting on the claims [of
atrocities] in the film.
"It's pretty much settled now that much of the so-called atrocities
was the product of outright fabrications and some even offered by
persons with criminal records.
"Some of this stuff is ludicrous on its face," adds Burkett, "but it's
being offered as gospel."
Burkett singles out Scott Camil, a former Marine scout and forward
artillery observer, who in the film confides, "If I had to go into a
village and kill 150 people just to make sure there was no one there
to kill me when we walked out, that's what I did."
Vietnam Veterans for Truth, an organization that Sen. John Kerry was a
member of, offers this
website. The group, which included Scott Camil, voted to
assassinate eight U.S. Senators.
NewsMax offers a look back at one of the key participants in the
Winter Soldier project and the testimony of Vietnam veteran Steve
Pitkin:
During a speech at the Kerry Lied Rally on Sept. 12, 2004, Pitkin
first identified himself as a vet who, with prodding from Kerry, lied
about atrocities in Vietnam:
"They knew I was one of the very few real combat veterans in the room.
I told them I didn’t have anything to say. Kerry said, ‘Surely you’ve
seen some of the atrocities.’
"I kept saying ‘no’ and the mood turned ugly. One of the other leaders
whispered to me, ‘It’s a long walk back to Baltimore.’ I’m not proud
of this, but I finally agreed to speak. They told me what to talk
about – American troops beating civilians and prisoners, shelling and
destroying villages for no reason, and acts of racism against the
Vietnamese.
"John Kerry knew that the Winter Soldier testimony was a pack of lies.
I know, because I was there, and I told some of those lies."
Jagger bashes Bush/Rice
Drudge is reporting that "old rocker" Mick Jagger is set to
release a tune titled "Sweet Neo-con." The song bashes both President
Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice:
'HOW COME YOU'RE SO WRONG, MY SWEET NEO-CON'
"You call yourself a Christian, I call you a hypocrite/ You call
yourself a patriot. Well, I think your are full of sh*t!... How come
you're so wrong, my sweet neo-con."
Ready to drop in the coming weeks, a new Bush-bashing tune from the
ROLLING STONES: "Sweet Neo Con."
Thousands should not have died
News Max offers a look at how Hillary may be indirectly
responsible for the death of thousands of New Yorkers:
More than a year before the 9/11 attacks, Clinton administration
intelligence officials had identified four of the 19 9/11 hijackers as
a terrorist threat - including al-Qaida team leader Mohamed Atta and
his partner Marwan al-Shehhi, whose planes destroyed the World Trade
Center and killed over 2,700 people.
But the critical information was not acted on, at least in part,
because of prohibitions against intelligence sharing implemented by
former Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick, who was reportedly
installed in her post at the insistence of then-first lady Hillary
Clinton.
It is reported that Gorelick would be the leading candidate for
Attorney General under the Second Clinton administration.
