Millions of South Vietnamese fought for their freedom...till they had nothing
left to fight with.
There are 2 million South Vietnamese now in this country, who would be
shocked that you say they didn't fight.
The South Vietnamese fought
hard for their freedom, and paid a devastating price when we gave up and
withdrew . Two years after the peace treaty was signed the helicopters carried
escapees off the Embassy roofs , and the North swallowed the South.
Joseph C. Petrone
U.S Ambassador in Geneva Switzerland
Above is an email written by U.S.
Ambassador Joseph Petrone, (Ambassador in Geneva Switzerland)to Mr. Oreilly at
Fox News to express his disagreement with a statement made by Mr. Oreilly.
Ambassador Petrone sent a copy of his email to Dr. Hai Van Ha to show his
support for our cause.
"While the Government of Vietnam has made
progress opening up economically, its human rights record remains poor.
The Vietnamese Government’s intolerance of political dissent, including
on the Internet, resulted in the arrests and sentencing of several
democracy activists in 2003.
Religious freedom problems persist and restrictions are particularly
acute for the leadership of the Unified Buddhist Church of Vietnam and
for Protestant Christians in the Central and Northwest Highlands"
Statement made by Ambassador Richard S.
Williamson U.S. Representative to the Commission on Human Rights in
Geneva,
March 25, 2004
