Re: Anniversary of Pain - Fall of Saigon
Date: April 30, 1997
Following the Communist proclivity for planning events to take place on anniversaries of great victories, the Clinton Badministration fell lock-step into the practice.
The day that the US ambassdor to the SOCIALIST Republic of Vietnam was sworn in, is the anniversary of the fall of Saigon to the brutal, murderous regime now adorning themselves in the mantle of global diplomacy.
It was 22 years ago today that the city fell under siege for the last time. 22 years ago today that our minds and hearts reeled as we saw images of desperate people clinging to the skids on choppers floating in the air. 22 years ago today that the devastated US Embassy was sacked from within and without, for the very last time.
Today, on the anniversary of the loss of whatever freedom South Vietnam embraced, minions in Hanoi scramble about, preparing the residence and offices of the new US Embassy. The one the US has seen fit to occupy in a Communist Vietnam, while the fate of her children... ... the men who fought so hard for freedom for others and lost theirs as a result, has been left along the Most Favored Nation Highway, like trash after a parade.
