"Um, the Nightline producers didn't, by any vague chance, have a government minder with them when they went galavanting around Vietnam"

O'Neil said he could see the gov't minders in the background
on the tape Kopple showed. And oh BTW, they are the same
commies who happen to have praised Kerry for helping them win
the Vietnam war, don't you know.

If you think about it, what are the odds that they would find
so many dirt poor peasants who had photographic memories of
one specific incident 35 years ago in a country that was at
war for decades? Oh ya, & they all still live right in the
same tiny village where this infamous battle was fought for 5
minutes or so. BTW, these same witnesses said that a good
portion of this tiny village was burned to the ground (by the
South Vietnamese under orders of the US Gov't - how they knew
that is amazing in itself).

Was it the only battle fought anywhere near them while war
raged all around for year & years? According to these
peasants, this was an enemy supply area with troops present.
Swift Boats patrolled this area constantly & we are to
believe that was the only notable battle that was ever fought
there? By all accounts, there were only a scant few minutes
of actual shooting.

Isn't it amazing that in the heat of the battle, so many
folks were in position to become eyewitnesses some 35 years
later?

And why would the enemy choose to ambush Swift boats directly
in front of a secret supply area?
