Correction. After posting, I see that someone made the same point.

uw - from post 77975. Be certain that Kerry has already planted the same seeds in the minds of OBL and all other terrorists. "While giving him the benefit of the doubt, I will assume that John Kerry intended his activism to shorten the war and save lives. But he made a catastrophic error in judgment. It did not. It prolonged the war, and it cost more American lives, and more Vietnamese lives. To be blunt, the anti-war activism of John Kerry and others like him had the unintended consequence of killing people, and their blood is on his hands. How many people? It is impossible to know, with any certainty, but in his 1985 memoir, North Vietnamese General Vo Nguyen Giap wrote that if it had not been for anti-war activists such as John Kerry, North Vietnam, militarily beaten after the Tet Offensive, would have surrendered; but the anti-war movement, and in particular John Kerry's congressional testimony in April 1971, convinced the North Vietnamese that if they could hold on a little longer the growing anti-war movement and sentiment in America would turn America's military victory into a political defeat, and North Vietnam's military defeat into a political victory.">
