Kerry Honored by Vietnamese Communists

----------

Communist Vietnamese Honor John Kerry, the War Protestor, as a Hero
in the Communist Victory over the United States in the Vietnam War.

In the Vietnamese Communist War Remnants Museum (formerly known as
the "War Crimes Museum") in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), a photograph
of John Kerry hangs in a room dedicated to the anti-war activists who
helped the Vietnamese Communists win the Vietnam War. The photograph
shows then-Massachusetts Lieutenant Governor Kerry being greeted by
the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Comrade Do
Muoi.

Jeffrey M. Epstein of Vietnam Vets for the Truth acquired the
photograph over the Memorial Day weekend as America was commemorating
its military heroes. Epstein's organization, Vietnam Vets for the
Truth, had issued a general request last week for photographs
documenting Kerry's activities on behalf of the enemy. Bob Shirley, a
Vietnam Swift Boat veteran (www.pcf45.com), sent the photograph to
Epstein in response to that call. Shirley recently joined over 200
other Swift Boat veterans in signing an open letter questioning
Kerry's fitness to serve as Commander-in-Chief.

Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, in Vietnam, July 15-18,
1993. Photo taken in the War Remnants Museum (formerly the "War
Crimes Museum") in Saigon in May 2004.

Jeff Epstein explains the importance of the photograph:

"This photograph's unquestionable significance lies in its placement
in the American protestors' section of the War Crimes Museum in
Saigon. The Vietnamese communists clearly recognize John Kerry's
contributions to their victory. This find can be compared to the
discovery of a painting of Neville Chamberlain hanging in a place of
honor in Hitler's Eagle's Nest in 1945."

Photographer Bill Lupetti, who is currently visiting Vietnam, took
the photographs in Saigon during his recent visit there. Lupetti, a
former Hospital Corpsman, is also a Swift Boat veteran.

Below the photograph of John Kerry are explanatory placards in
English, French, Vietnamese, and Chinese. The English placard reads:

"Mr. Do Muoi, Secretary General of the Vietnamese Communist Party
met with Congressman and Veterans Delegation in Vietnam (July 15-18,
1993)"

Senator Kerry may argue today that his anti-war protests did not
render support to the enemy in time of war and that his activities
did not violate the definition of treason given in Article III,
Section 3, of the US Constitution. This exhibit paying tribute to
Kerry in the War Protestors Hall of the War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi
Minh City tells a very different story. The Vietnamese communists
clearly feel that the American anti-war protestors were a very
important force in undermining support in the United States for
American war efforts, a force that contributed materially to ultimate
communist victory in 1975.

On Fox News' Hannity and Colmes show on Friday, May 28, 2004, Rear
Admiral Roy Hoffman (USN, Retired) accused John Kerry of being a
traitor because of his anti-war activities. This photo, which
demonstrates the extent to which the Vietnamese communists
acknowledge that he supported them during the Vietnam War,
corroborates this charge. (Hoffman, the former commander of the Swift
Boat force and one-time Kerry's superior officer, is Chairman of
Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth (SwiftVets.com).

Vietnam Vets for the Truth (KerryLied.com) was established for the
sole purpose of organizing a rally pointing up Kerry's lies during
the so-called "Winter Soldier" hearings in the US Senate in 1971. The
rally, appropriately called "Kerry Lied," will be held on Capitol
Hill on September 12th.
