IN ADDITION, considering the typical ridiculous, absurd and
obviously false claims about my military service that originates
from the smear merchant crackpot gang, I also hereby certify and
attest this article is NOT a secret coded message that only smear
gang members such as the anonymous cyberstalker SteveL and others
can decode with his secret Federal Agent midget decoder and mind
reading ring. This means all gang members inevitable claims that
this article is me really claiming in a soothsaying code (a code
crackpots et al gang members can only read of course which
involves the standard nonsensical gang leader mind reading
claims) that (1) I was a CIA cross border assassin that sniper
killed Ho Chi Minh, HOORAH - (2) that I personally killed 1803
enemy soldiers in Vietnam and then feasted on their bodies (burp)
(3) that I was a secret member of the Mi Lai massacre, (let god
sort them out) that I hunted down and murdered unarmed Priests
(take that choir boy) (4) that I was trained by the Martian Army
on Mars, and I have green blood, and retractable fangs (slurp),
(5) that the movie "Rambo" was copied after my deeds in Vietnam
and I still live in caves in the northwest (6) and best of all, I
went to the Carlise War College to study WWII tactics even before
I was born!!!! BWHAHAHAHAHHA. Such preposterous crackpot et al
smear and fraud gang claims about me are, as usual, blatantly
false and equally ridiculous. (Ask them for proof of their claims
the next time they make such ludicrous claims and watch them
scurry for their rocks). Also, note that all of the smear gang's
accusations about me have been (or will be) submitted to a team
of independent and highly qualified investigators, experts on
military issues, and the law. I have already seen some of their
written conclusions, and so far all of the experts agree with me,
and some believe I am being smeared and defamed with fraud, false
accusations and obloquy, and two have recommended I take
immediate legal action against members of this smear gang that
conspires together to defame and smear me on a repeated and
regular basis. I will publish all of their opinions about the
gang's accusations when all of their false accusations,
forgeries, fraud, false military record representations, and
general obloquy have been investigated and opined upon by
experts).
VIETNAMESE COMMUNIST PARTY'S CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY
Doug Says: The following history of the Vietnamese Communist
Party's crimes should be enough to deter anyone (especially a
Vietnam Vet) from visiting that terrorist state as a tourist.
Not to mention the rampant diseases that infect a large number of
the Vietnamese population, such as Malaria, Aids and various
***ually transmitted diseases. I should also mention that if you
are ever arrested in Vietnam for even a minor charge you probably
will never be seen again, right along with the American POW's the
Communists kept as slaves after the war. (See my Post "An
Enormous Crime for more information regarding the POW's the
Communist retain as slaves after we cut and ran from Vietnam).
Many tourists to Vietnam are not aware that a percentage of all
tourist money spent in Vietnam goes directly to the Vietnamese
communist government. Please do not allow our tourist dollars to
finance our enemies. I need not mention that Vietnam has also
approved more Muslim Mosques to be built in that Country than in
any other non-Muslim country - The Vietnam Government alliance
with our sworn enemies is obvious.
Some of the smear merchant gang members just love communist
Vietnam, and they sup****t and defend it at every op****tunity.
They also advocate that all Vietnam Vets should return to that
**** Hole. The following information from an organization that
has kept track of the crimes against humanity the Vietnamese have
perpetrated provides my reasons for my opinion to not help the
Vietnamese Government in any manner - tourist or otherwise.
The following is an accounting and petition in respect to the
crimes against humanity the Vietnamese Communist Party has
committed - that we know about. I was advised to send this
petition on by its authors:
"VIETNAMESE COMMUNIST PARTY'S CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY Petition
VIETNAMESE COMMUNIST PARTY'S CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY
View Current Signatures - Sign the Petition
To: to The UN and all Human Rights Organizations
TO: Mrs. Mary Robinson, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights
The Vietnamese people to bring on a debate at the United Nations
to prosecute the Vietnamese communist Party for it's CRIME
AGAINST HUMANITY. This crime and its party leaders are guilty of
a crime which has been committed against the Vietnamese people .
The criminals should be prosecuted and punished by the
international courts of justice.
Dear Mrs. Mary Robinson:
In the wake of brutal atrocities in the wars in Bosnia and
Rwanda, the United Nations, with the full sup****t of your
administration, has convened the first international war crimes
tribunal since World War II.
Representatives of your administration have said that sup****ting
the tribunal's prosecution of individuals responsible for the
wide-scale murder, rape and torture of civilians in both
conflicts will deter future abuses.
The communist leaders of Vietnam responsible for subjecting
anti-Communist Vietnamese and U.S. prisoners of war to
concentration camps, brutal guards, starvation rations,
decapitation, killing fields and mass graves. The facts needed to
investigate and successfully prosecute Vietnamese war criminals
are clearly laid out in thousands of pages of do***entation and
testimony on file with the U.S. government, including statements
and re****ts received from victims, witnesses, other governments,
UN agencies, international organizations and non-governmental
organizations.
The Vietnamese Communist Leaders, have a well-defined and
recorded history as a black-hearted war criminal. Vietnamese
Communist Party recruited young Vietnamese men and women
(children included) and trained them as terrorists for terrorism
acts against the civilian population of South Vietnam .
The communist leaders responsible for the Viet Cong's official
policies pertaining to the treatment of U.S. prisoners of war,
policies which resulted in the deaths of nearly 40 percent of all
U.S. prisoners in Viet Cong prisons.
In the name of justice and for the sake of all the victims of
Vietnamese Communist's war crimes, please ask that they (VCP) be
investigated and prosecuted by the newly formed United Nations
War Crimes Tribunal.
For your information, here is a list by date of some of the war
crimes members of the Vietnamese Communist Party are guilty of.

involvement in ordering brutal acts of terrorism.

anyone who might potentially sup****t, or form the core of,

thrower, 60 of them. The purpose: purely to terrorize. The
result: a Carhaginian solution, all but sowing of the salt. After
breaking through the flimsy hamlet militia defense, the
communists set about systematically to destroy the village and
the people in it. Families are incinerated alive in their
grass-roofed huts or in the shelters dug beneath their beds.
Everything combustible is put to the torch: houses, recently
harvested grain on the ground, livestock, fences, trees, people.
One of the first Americans to
approach the scene the following day: "As we approached the place
I thought I saw charred cordwood piled up the way you pile up
logs neatly beside the road. When we got closer I could see it
was burned bodies of several dozen babies. The odor of burned
flesh, which really is an unforgettable smell, reached us outside
the village and of course got stronger at the center. People were
trying to breath through cabbage leaves . . . I saw a small boy a
smaller girl, probably his sister, sort of melted together in a
charred embrace. I saw a mother burned black still hiding two
children, also burned black. Everything was burned and black. The
worst was the wail of the survivors who were picking through the
smoldering ruins. One man kept screaming and screaming at the top
of his lungs. For an hour he kept it up. He wasn't hurt that I
could tell. He just kept screaming until a doctor gave him a shot
of morphine or something .
.. . Fire bloats bodies I learned, and after a few hours the skin
splits and peels and curls . . . The far end of the village
wasn't burned; the communists ran out of flamethrower fuel before
they got to it . . ." Estimated toll: 252 dead, about two-thirds
of them women and children; 200
abducted, never to return.
