Kerry's testimony quoted from the congressional Record...You can read it all at the link below.

Admiral Crowe attempted to dismiss the Swiftvets as hearsay. The swifties were all there. They have dozens of sworn affidavits and each man has offered to testify on TV... I would tell Crowe that if he wants to read hearsay, he should read what Kerry told Congress because when investigators went to Kerry's Winter soldier sources they found that most had never been in Nam and the rest refused to testify or even confirm what Kerry told the senate. Kerry lied.

"They told the stories at times they had 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 in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country."

There is much more....and I would hope all would read the detail.

Complete John Kerry Testimony, 04/22/71

Complete Kerry / O'Neill Debate, 06/30/71

Like the book "Unfit For Command" this website has links and references and cross references.

I was glad to see Wolf B finally address this on CNN. Let's get all the evidence on TV.

9 Million Vietnam era Vets, the 2.6 million Vets who served in Vietnam, and the 58,000 American war dead who all lived the past 33 years under a cloud of false charges created by John Kerry deserve nothing less.

Can you save me the research?


Depends on your definition of "all." O'Neil means ALL the Swift Vets. Kerry spent his time only on the Swift Boats and came back with a tale of war crimes he had seen and testified to during the committee hearings. So the Swift vets feel that he was indicting them.
