PN>>18838505 Anon opines No Name Mcasshole POWs deserted in Vietnam

Anon that posted all the research on No Name and POWs left behind, Thank You! the Schanberg article was extensive and should be read by all anons, in addition the articles by Zalin Grant are valuable, one of No Name and one on POWs left behind, but this quote was in Schanbergs article (link below) “McCain and the POW coverup. This quote below explains why agencies such as DOD, FBI, DIA, CIA get away with refusing to supply documents to Congress. McCain wrote it his bill with John Kerry, that was passed into law how the agencies can hide evidence of malfeasance and worse that it still in force today. This law should be gutted and removed, in effect it allows agencies commit treason and get away with it. =•Although it pertains to POWs I’m sure the agencies figured out a way to apply to huge amounts of hidden secrets==

“Bitterly opposed by the Pentagon (and thus McCain), the bill went nowhere. Reintroduced the following year, it again disappeared. But a few months later, a new measure, known as “the McCain Bill,” suddenly appeared.By creating a bureaucratic maze from which only a fraction of the documents could emerge—only records that revealed no POW secrets—it turned the Truth Bill on its head. (See one example, at left, when the Pentagon cited McCain’s bill in rejecting a FOIA request.) The McCain bill became law in 1991 and remains so today.So crushing to transparency are its provisionsthat it actually spells out for the Pentagon and other agencies several rationales, scenarios and justifications for not releasing any information at all—even about prisoners discovered alive in captivity. Later that year, the Senate Select Committee was created, where Kerry and McCain ultimately worked together to bury evidence.

(Anons remember that tweet with Kerry and many others commenting on the death of Max Bacchus, they were all in the VN war and I think they callled themselves the “Dog of War” or something, it seems they were all in with No Name to prevent any POWs from being released. Does anyone still have that tweet and picture.Crew of Treasonous Criminalsshould really be the nickname

POWS LEFT BEHIND IN INDOCHINA

How It Happened

By Zalin Grant

Did we leave prisoners of war behind in Indochina?

I have been involved with this issue for over 40 years. First as a young army intelligence officer tracking U.S. POWs held in the Danang area. Then as a journalist for Time magazine and The New Republic, and as the author of four books on the war, including SURVIVORS, the true story of nine American POWs held in South and North Vietnam. I’ve talked to many former prisoners of war and the families of the missing the action. I’ve interviewed the officials involved at the Pentagon and State Department. I have read DIA reports and transcripts of every congressional hearing that investigated the issue. Here is the way I see it. (Long article)

Here is the part where Kissinger intentionally got Journalist POWs killed__

HENRY KISSINGER: His Role in the Search for Photographers

Sean Flynn and Dana Stone MIA in Cambodia.

This was early November 1973. Walter Cronkite had arranged for us to meet with Henry Kissinger at the White House. Cronkite was chairman of a committee of journalists who were trying to bring about the release of Sean Flynn and Dana Stone and other international journalists who had been captured in Cambodia in 1970. Three members of the Committee—Walter Cronkite, Peter Arnett, Richard Dudman—and myself as the Committee’s chief researcher were to meet with Kissinger. Arnett was a Pulitzer-Prize winning reporter for the Associated Press. Dudman was a reporter for the St Louis Post-Dispatch who had been captured and released in Cambodia.

I had begun working on the problem in April 1970 at the request of Time magazine and CBS. Flynn, who was the son of actor Errol Flynn, worked for Time. Stone was a cameraman for CBS. They were captured on April 6, 1970. I had continued my research for the Cronkite Committee, which was formed in late 1970 and included—besides Cronkite, Arnett, and Dudman—Tom Wicker, Barry Bingham Sr., Otis Chandler, Osborn Elliott, Murray Gart, Katharine Graham, David Halberstam, Ward Just, and Frank McCulloch.

The Committee had examined the information I had collected and also the reports from DIA and CIA and the State Department about the missing newsmen. We were pretty sure that the journalists were still alive and being held near Kratie City on the Mekong River in northeast Cambodia.

Henry Kissinger had been promoted to Secretary of State but he continued to act as Richard Nixon’s national security advisor. He asked us to meet him at his White House office. He greeted Cronkite, who by then had attained the rank of “the most trusted man in America,” very extravagantly. After reading our documents and examining the maps that pinpointed the location of the journalists, he immediately offered his help.

Kissinger said he would get in touch with the North Vietnamese and also send the information we had collected to the Chinese and ask for their help. It was good information, he said, and our case was well-made.

We left his office in high spirits. “Kissinger is really going to move on this,” we told each other.

So we were stunned when we received Kissinger’s letter to Hanoi, which was passed on to Walter Cronkite by Kissinger’s deputy, General Brent Scowcroft.Cronkite sent us a photocopy of the letter and said, “This is not what he told us he would do.”

Kissinger had already washed his hands of the American military MIAs. Now, to us, it seemed that he was doing the same thing to the missing American journalists.

Here is what happened, according to the ex-Khmer Rouge I interviewed, a defector who was installed as the prime minister of the country after the Vietnamese overran Cambodia in 1978. He was in Kratie when the journalists were captured.

Three months after Kissinger sent the cable to the North Vietnamese and passed on our documents to the Chinese, the ex-prime minister said that theKhmer Rouge had killed all the journalists and bulldozed the camp where they were held. Then they killed all the camp’s guards and chased down the camp commander and killed him too

A coincidence? Or did Henry Kissinger play Pontius Pilate?

Below is a clear copy I made of the letter Kissinger sent to the North Vietnamese, followed by the less legible photocopy I received of the original Kissinger cable.

This makes me think Kissinger wanted the journalists dead because their reporting on Viet Nam were very critical of Nixon’s and Kissinger’s war, so this was payback and a warning.

Is this when journalists and news outlet went all out in on government propaganda because the threat from government to their lives.

The media has become very comfortable with their submission now, they basically rarely cover any wars and certainly mimic the government lies.
