Washington Times columnist
Charles Hurt offers his take on former Secretary of State John Kerry dealing
with the Iranians.
RICHMOND — The last time Sen.
John McCain lay dying, he was in a North Vietnamese prison cell having been
brutally tortured.
Over the propaganda
loudspeaker, one of Mr. McCain’s fellow prisoners of war would later recall,
the brave Americans heard the voice, clearly that of an American, testifying
before Congress that it was the American forces like John McCain — not the
North Vietnamese — who were committing torture and murder over in Vietnam.
American servicemen
“personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable
telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up
bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of
Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally
ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam,” claimed the American, reportedly a
U.S. Navy officer.
Such unverified testimony in
the hands of the North Vietnamese was a massive propaganda win. And a
devastating blow to American POWs, such as John McCain, who were clinging to
life in such savage conditions.
Decorated Vietnam War veteran
and POW Paul Galanti would later recall that it was the soft, effeminate
pronunciation of “Genghis Khan” that tipped him off that the testifying
turncoat was none other than John Kerry, who would later become a senator, his
party’s failed presidential nominee and eventually one of the worst secretaries
of state in U.S. history.
“I don’t remember hearing his
name, but he’s the only human being I’ve ever heard that said ‘Genghis Khan,’ ”
recalled Mr. Galanti, pronouncing the name “Jenjis Kahn.”
“When I heard him saying that a couple of
months ago, I said, ‘My God! That’s the same guy I heard in Hanoi they were
promoting as a big friend of theirs!’ “
As heroes like John McCain
and Paul Galanti rotted in prisoner camps, John Kerry — safely back stateside —
was throwing away his medals and accusing his former fellow servicemen of
committing the worst atrocities imaginable.
In other words, plotting a
lifelong political career.
Once again, America finds Mr.
McCain heroically fighting for his life, this time against cancer. Perhaps
inspired by such heroism, Mr. Kerry has dusted off his old turncoat from his
French closet and is turning traitor against the United States again.
According to the Boston
Globe, Mr. Kerry has been spotted in New York City, conspiring with our sworn
enemies to undermine U.S. foreign policy.
