This is part of an urban myth. See
http://urbanlegends.about.com/librar.../aa110399a.htm

You really should try to separate fact from fiction before you repost
lies about living people. e.g:



Nav,

Check out snopes.com ~~~~~search Jane Fonda.

And BTW it none of your biz, go back and tend to your sheep!

Here is what you will find:


Claim: During a 1972 trip to North Vietnam, Jane Fonda propagandized
on behalf of the North Vietnamese government, declared that American
POWs were being treated humanely and condemned U.S. soldiers as "war
criminals" and later denounced them as liars for claiming they had
been tortured.

Status: True.



I'm not going to get involved in the name calling in this thread. There is
a huge difference between the political leaders who orchestrate wars, --
and the soldiers who actually place their lives on the line for the rest of
us.

If Capt. American actually fought in Vietnam, then I take my hat off to him.
It really doesn't matter if the war was right or wrong. The soldiers who
fought in it believed that they were defending their country. They
displayed a degree courage that would shame most of us.

It is the politicians who must take the blame for the mistakes.

Don't blame the soldiers. You might need them one day!


Regards


Donal
