!±8± Cam Ranh Bay Vietnam - first duty station [1971]





In a war zone - a zone of combat, which, or for that matter, is in a support unit, which is in a war zone, there are very few flops, waving flags, or for that matter, the soldiers are standing erect with dressed greens, gloriously waiting for the fight to bend [like in the movies], sorry, just dodge teams stepping soldiers march in the rain and mud, bullets, rockets.


The soldiers in Vietnam, mostly young, were a bit 'worn inNervous to find out where she, set in the scheme of things, that is. That said, what was the goal [of what we've all asked ourselves, sooner or later]: - to win, to stabilize or contain? Nothing was clear except for one thing, or so I discovered shortly after my arrival in Vietnam was not to win, that war is won, in terms of directly from the victory.


Whatever the political mind of the politicians in Washington, DC, have soldiersbut I know that was not to win the war. Because we all knew we had or have a simple task. But then we do not want to run in Russia, we have, which was our way of avoiding a nuclear confrontation, I suppose, as in Korea, not in a rush to China, and lift the face of a nuclear power in this area, it means that we had these large bombs used to stop the hordes of enemy soldiers coming. Or at least that was the way we think our decision makers, or so, I think.


Back toVietnam again, I do not think it would be tough to win a war, [we did not set limits on ourselves, and missed targets for the good of other nations to get angry with us], but then had the negative forces against you / or We, like Jane Fonda [see also Last Words] in addition to the uncertain political minds in Washington DC, and in the ... making it more difficult. [As in many wars, you get the wild radicals, even in the Persian Gulf war, as SeanPenn, and a few like him. All] wants to go stir our emotions and see their films, and part with them on a protest march, but if you protest against them, are emotionally unstable, I do not like [President George Bush as saying. " .. there is no way ..."]. And in most cases, the demonstrators as they are, have never seen one day of fighting, but it is not lack of wisdom with them.


He protested in my way when I came home from Vietnam, I would not go to see theirMovies, though I saw one and bought another one, but it was very difficult for me to see them. I appreciate the great movie stars have an advantage of being able to go on stage and what they believe to be, for millions of people in a few minutes, someone like me, you know, it's my only way, or he was talking about does not support it at all possible way. Some people feel this way is not the proper way to react, but it is the only one I know, and a non-violent way, as I knew, and the road is a good old American styleprotest, I know.


And from what I see from those times and events, most people could not the difference between being assertive, which I think is the look in protest at war or peace, health and aggression, I believe, hypocritical at best . But that's how it always is. You go on a march for peace, and create a war. For me, a march for peace is peace, and so on and so forth, but we see the creation of hysteria, exactly what you protest, they should not bebehavior? But this was what I thought at that time.


Life in general in Vietnam [in a support group where I was] made his regular duties as a house, or Germany, you were cleaning their guns, washing socks, grabbed the rain and a hot shower. Married men have been trying not to feel the pain of missing women, and I received a Dear John letter, for example, my girls from Augsburg, Germany, was no longer going to write to me - as I expected, but I My Grief on leaveSt. Paul, Minn., a tear, a river, destroyed, or was it two rivers, however, can not remember, was too long ago. In war it is better to leave behind the love letters.


But it was over [the report of Augsburg], and I was glad I did not want to end up like the other guys --- that is in a hurry and wait, hoping to get to the mailbag, we get one or two letters every day to give you the power and control of your life to this person, and decide what to write whenYou - all plug your mind you think '... I go to war to die today and go to hell, or do you think they do back home. "This raises the question of who should live, because surely Charlie, the enemy does not want, and how I've always said, and I said I would go home together, or not, and if Charlie had in me. By the way, we would both go to hell together, but married men always wanted to go home, they thought of home And you know what in your head most of the time. especially ifwere married or had a short time, she always seemed busy. In a combat zone, this can be dangerous.


I do not want to walk before dark, to wake in their sleep, while in Vietnam, so I slept with one eye open all the time, while in Vietnam, and if a shadow crossed my path, who would die or would have liked to have .


On other occasions, someone could say to my companions,


"Why do you always keep the gun locked and loaded ...?" Meaning ready to shoot, "... even if you know Charlie isthe hills, two miles away, something harmless, only if it remains there. "My answer was always,


"I like that has been loaded - it's good for me, as I am in control, the way I want." It would concern some of my friends that I'm afraid shoot them by mistake. And I suppose that anything was possible.


m


Vietnam had many things to me, you could say that its a bag full of experiences, such as, but not quite as, Augsburg, Germany, where I landed in a novel,yup, that's where it was before it was released later in Vietnam. And San Francisco was also quite a learning experience where I lived for a year before joining the army and was sent there to Augusta. Somehow that seems to combine all of them because everyone else will end up in a mixed here in Vietnam.


Bring some 'of my experiences new heroin, and the search for my dance on top of a hut in the middle of the jungle free supply, where I and four other soldierswere the reduction of metal supply house. Even here we were listening to the top of the roof, dance, music, some Bob Dylan, I think, and turtles, etc., because there were no war. I kept my M16 Locked and Loaded, though, - but God does not want to come to the enemy, I had left on the ground by some other clothes I hang up. I had to jump off the roof, take my gun up to this point, we'd all be dead.


After several hours of rope-a-dope adventure, we had the placeAll dismantled, so that Charlie could not use it, and then we returned to base camp. That was my first use of white gold, heroin. Three dollars per capsule, and you could smoke, rubbing in the veins, or for that matter, inject, but I liked it. It 'was so good, I told myself, this was not happening again. I will certainly end up with a joke, drugs, and this was not the right place.


Like the sun, that day we had once again returned to our team in time for dinner. Ushad rice mixed with eggs, hamburger and green peppers and fried all together, it was fantastic.


m


The storage of ammunition, as we called [ammunition supply area] where I work so much, I fly a slap in the face all day in the little wooden hut that we used seemed to office. And to be perfectly honest, which in itself is a stressful job, especially when there is no wind to vent through the place. And just try not to crush them, eaten alive, that is, they land on everything, everywhere, all daylong.


Outside the hut was the only copper falls on you like you could almost touch the ball yourself, you can cook an egg on a rock, one of the soldiers tried, it works. Often, when things are slow, and often did, he would daydream on the porch of the hut, or go around looking for a stick to clean his ass, because there was no toilet paper.


With wives or lovers are really in love with back home for the first time the heat and rain of the lostVietnam, but again I say this because there was no reason for concern at times. I've often thought of the Israeli army, according to my understanding, if a person was married, she would not allow him to serve for a year or so. That made good sense, had her sex, her house was in order, for the most part, and concentrated.


Nights of stars seemed less, no birds sing at all, in fact, there were no birds. Not in the jungle or in the ammunition depot, only dry heat, lizards, and not too far fromSouth China Sea coast. No birds, no birds, no sir never, ever heard, no bird at all - and if I had ever seen. [As I write this I hear them now before my windows, chirping and singing. What a beautiful sound!]


m


It seemed to me that would make me live through Vietnam, I never thought that I would not be until I was breathing and not bleeding. One of my friends did it the hard way, has screwed so many women, so he has all these different types of sexually transmitted diseasesDisease, some have never heard of, and was sent to Japan for treatment. Her back was bent backwards like the Hunchback of Notre Dame. We had to talk into the night, and said simply: "Chick, sometimes I sleep with three times a day."


I said: "You must stop, look, what it is, yes," which was a month before he had the disease for the fifth time, or was it 7? In any case, this time has a difficult time, it seemed to me was, it was agreed at the problems of the spine, and talkit was too painful, I could say, and the next day he was gone. What a way to go without a fight, only bad company. I think we have chosen all our sins and our way of dealing with them and the unknown, with boredom and fun rules, which were here: and most of the way, how we deal with issues as they were treated by separating the [suspension of your mind / or reality], was about sex, drugs, gambling, fighting, or alcohol, as I often choose, or what was available. I think that war is war,Do not sit waiting for the pizza man is, we should fight or training to do what we did.


@


And I'm here in Vietnam, is the year l971, on the other side of the world, no poet, no people rich, not lawyers, but one of the guys named Presley, was a relative of Elvis' [or so it has said]. However, the rich and famous were not present, it is not always the case? It 'easy to say who is and who is not expendable, government. No disrespectit should, because I do not mind, here I must be a better place, no one waiting for me at home, not a girl, that is. For me it's just a trip into the jungle along the coast.


My Hutch


And 'I971 was the winter I lived in a barn at a military base in Cam Ranh Bay, Vietnam, Research and dry, white sand and dirt that is packed against the hills around the camp, there was a radar station, above us. Down to the shore on the coast of southern ChinaSea, there were a couple of shrines, temples hidden in the jungle, and a road that leads to three ammunition dumps, Alpha, Charlie and Delta [alpha, the Air Force Dump]. It was dry and the sand was white, in fact perfect for a beach to swim and to paraphrase a voice that has spoken on this area in a resort type transformed after the war, could well be a good area for a location with financial planning and capital could be perfect, it was actually in the air, orI must say, with Americans present, some businessmen. I could not imagine such a place, be realistic, but who knows, things have happened stupid, I told myself. It was not always, you can watch two pictures at once, and prospects. But it could once again set to be a location.


I belonged to 611th Ordnance Company, there were 167 troops at the mine, with two rolls of stalls in the campsite, [four men in a hut], a dining roomStables, those in-between a floor of metal extending from the stalls at the fair with holes that covered the yard. A measure of safety for all creatures great and small, who wanted to visit us, such as snakes, lizards and scorpions, and who knows what else.


We also had a parent room [head] in front of our Military Liaison [or camping / complex], a shower of the complex way in the back where the bathrooms were outside, which left him a little 'even if isolated - not bad for a combination combat zone. And right next to our company has become a society of Military Police [MP], and their structure was similar to ours. Outside of our area was dusty dirt road connecting the compressed air hard, very hard done dirt dirt - and, I would add that with some rocks and cover the surface.
m


Winter in Vietnam was not like in the winter in St. Paul, Minnesota, where I came from. Here in Vietnam, it was hot, hot, muggy and hot, sometimesThe humidity was like a hot shower in your sweat. There were more lizards of dogs, some up to six meters. More than mice and scorpions were more jumbo bull as mosquito wasps, but cats, I think we were like them in this category in Minnesota vs. Vietnam, Cam Ranh Bay in particular. Yes it was a cat lover might say oasis. But these long-legged monster bull-tail giant mosquitoes and cockroaches, flies a foot over his head was enough to keep the mindbusy, if I had to think about anything else, and found themselves up all night with a crown of them in the head - is a giant cockroach on my face to wake up at night, and sometimes bite. And if you think they do not bite, think again.


And if they kill me at my ease in my stable I donate twenty minutes, thirty years ago, was flying, I know, I always come back to this fly problems, but they were everywhere, even in my dreams, yes, ratherSheep jumping over the fence, I'd crush the flies. But why complain, I told myself, I do not have to comb your hair, shine my boots, or for that matter do not impress, dress for brass [official], as in Germany. I believe that everything has its good and bad elements to.


Ê


When I arrived the first time in Vietnam, it was a flat night, the air was thin - as if he could not breathe, gently we [the more than 200 soldiers with me from the beam] is moving to a metalPlatform [something like our camp was here] again, I suppose, scorpions, no other living beings to do the Charlie [the enemy] did. We were moved, as I said, the plane was off the plane on the deck and then pulled away quickly, the enemy was not into them is null and destroy it. Then there are the bus to the processing center in Cam Ranh Bay. And there in the middle of the night, we waited and waited and waited.


We were like a stream of soldier antslong and tortuous as a football field. And even if 205 000 soldiers in Vietnam, when I arrived, or so I've heard, it was not so many as here a year ago - in retrospect, withdraw it slowly, in a place where there are over 500,000.


In any case, more to come and go twice a day from this position to my understanding.


We did not know what to expect the first few hours and nothing happened, just like the old saying goes. "Hurry ... Wait 'L'Army is good for this. I had only eight months before my service was, and I would quit the army, but I heard were the expansion of some soldiers, an additional 6-9 months, - it is open to all, I met some who are within a few weeks, has extended its so-called date of leaving Vietnam. In any case, I felt I could do standing on my head [the eight months that is] still, this heat does not make me very well, and I felt then, when things are for me, it wouldDass


Being from Minnesota, I was more accustomed to the cold and hot. In fact, I had 10 months of Augsburg, Germany spent just before coming here, and it was a bit 'spicy, but not that bad time. It seems to me that easily, as I have set, or perhaps family had just returned to Germany, and I was picky with this damn hot.


In Minnesota, we had really hot summers, so maybe once again my complaint unfounded, and the extreme cold in winter. And so I said, I woulda [way]. I also appreciate the way to the snow and cold of Germany and Minnesota, for the most part.


"This," said the soldier next to me [while I was with 200 other soldiers who arrived first waited with me in Vietnam].


[I gave him a hint, I assure you he was upset, or are not sure what I] I do not know.


Another man on my extreme south [of about 100 meters] found a pop machine and bought two cold Coca-Cola, drankfaster than counting to ten, and must have shocked his system because of the extreme heat, and leave, as if he were dead - but has simply moved only by changes in body temperature.


[E 'was in February, l971.] I got my khaki shirt that day, wiped the dirt from my eyes and leaned against the wall. Something told me it would be possible for a whole night and all day tomorrow to be something that is, processing me into the country with over 200 soldierswith me [and was].

Sau đợt tấn công hàng trăm website của Việt Nam vào tuần trước, Hacker Trung Quốc lại tiếp sử dụng phương thức DDOS để tấn công vào các website hàng đầu của Việt Nam. Nguyên nhân của sự việc này là thông tin các "hacker" Việt Nam tấn công các website của TQ được đăng tải trên các trang mạng của TQ, sự việc này đã làm nổi lên làn sóng phản công của các hacker TQ.

Điển hình là diễn đàn hacker lớn nhất Việt Nam HVAonline.net và trang tin tức tintuc.xalo.vn đã bị tấn công khá nặng nề dẫn đến tình trạng bị tê liệt một số thời gian.



Theo thông báo của Ban quản trị diễn đàn HVA, báo cáo của nhà cung cấp dịch vụ hosting cho thấy phần lớn các địa chỉ IP tấn công từ chối dịch vụ DDOS có nguồn từ Trung Quốc. Trong mạng lưới các máy tính tham gia tấn công (botnet) cũng có cả một số dải IP của Việt Nam. Điều này chứng tỏ không ít máy cá nhân ở Việt Nam đã bị nhiễm virus và trở thành máy tính ma (zombies) tham gia vào botnet của hacker Trung Quốc.

Tờ báo điện tử đưa tin đầu nguồn về các vụ tàu Trung Quốc xâm phạm lãnh hải, cắt cáp thăm dò địa chấn của các tàu Petrovietnam vừa bị tấn công làm tê liệt tối qua, 9/6.

Dữ liệu website Petrotimes.vn cũng bị hacker xóa sạch nhưng rất may đã được sao lưu đầy đủ nên không gây thiệt hại nào đáng kể.



Trả lời phóng viên VietNamNet, ông Nguyễn Như Phong, Tổng biên tập Báo điện tử Tin nhanh Năng Lượng Mới – PetroTimes.vn, cho biết: Vào lúc hơn 20h tối qua (9/6), một lượng truy cập khoảng trên 600 ngàn kết nối đồng thời đã dồn vào websie petrotimes.vn khiến website bị ngừng hoạt động vì quá tải.

Không chỉ bị tấn công từ chối dịch vụ, ông Nguyễn Như Phong cho biết toàn bộ dữ liệu của website Petrotimes đã bị hacker xóa sạch. Tuy nhiên, nhờ có sự cảnh báo từ trước của các cơ quan chức năng và an ninh mạng, toàn bộ hệ thống đã được sao lưu dữ liệu đầy đủ nên website đã được khôi phục trở lại nhanh chóng và chỉ bị gián đoạn trong khoảng hơn 30 phút.

Lúc 5h30 sáng qua (9/6), một tàu Trung Quốc tiếp tục xâm phạm lãnh hải Việt Nam và cắt cáp địa chấn tàu Viking II của Petrovietnam. Do có thông tin đầu nguồn của ngành dầu khí, PetroTimes.vn là tờ báo điện tử đưa tin và ảnh chụp, video đầu tiên về vụ việc trong buổi chiều cùng ngày.

Sau khi đưa tin về việc tàu Viking II bị cắt cáp được vài tiếng, PetroTimes đã phải hứng chịu cuộc tấn công kép từ hacker nước ngoài, bao gồm cả tấn công từ chối dịch vụ và xâm nhập phá hoại cơ sở dữ liệu. Các thông tin phân tích dữ liệu log cho thấy có nhiều dải địa chỉ IP tham gia tấn công xuất phát từ Trung Quốc.

Trước đó, ngày 8/6, trang web của Trung tâm biên phiên dịch quốc gia thuộc Bộ Ngoại giao VN tại địa chỉ ntc.mofa.gov.vn cũng đã bị tin tặc xâm nhập và treo cờ Trung Quốc, đồng thời thay đổi nội dung các đường link bên trái website.

Việc các webiste chính thống của Việt Nam phát ngôn, đưa thông tin trực tiếp về vụ các tàu Trung Quốc xâm phạm lãnh hải, cắt cáp tầu thăm dò dầu khí của Việt Nam đều bị tấn công cho thấy các hacker nước ngoài đang chuyển hướng tấn công vào các mục tiêu website quan trọng của Việt Nam chứ không chỉ dừng lại ở các website nhỏ lẻ của doanh nghiệp, cá nhân thiếu bảo mật như trước. Đây là một hành động leo thang về tấn công mạng đáng lo ngại, cũng như có sự liên quan mật thiết với các hành động xâm phạm lãnh hải Việt Nam của tàu Trung Quốc.

Liên tiếp trong vài ngày gần đây, nhiều người phát hiện ra hàng loạt website của các tổ chức lớn tại Việt Nam đồng loạt bị tấn công nhằm mục đích deface (thay đổi) giao diện trang chủ. Dựa trên thông điệp để lại: "HACKED BY HASHOR "ASHIYANE DIGITAL SECURITY TEAM"" - 1 thành viên nhóm hacker Ashiyane của Iran đang là đối tượng bị tình nghi.

Trong số các nạn nhận của đợt tấn công này, có thể thấy nhiều cái tên thuộc các tổ chức, cơ quan lớn như tên miền: BigC.vn (đăng ký bởi công ty thương mại quốc tế và dịch vụ Đại Siêu Thị Big C), donglucsport.com.vn (công ty thể thao Động Lực), tanhoangviet.com.vn (công ty thương mại kỹ thuật Tân Hoàng Việt), ceci.org.vn (trung tâm nghiên cứu hợp tác quốc tế Canada), cect.gov.vn (trung tâm tư vấn công nghệ và môi trường - Tổng cục môi trường), sonongnghiep.binhduong.gov.vn (Sở nông nghiệp Bình Dương)...

Ngay cả tên miền rất có giá trên thị trường chuyển nhượng là: baobongda.com.vn cũng bị tấn công. Rất may, lỗ hổng bảo mật trên các website trên đã hầu hết đã được khắc phục và hoạt động trở lại bình thường.

Theo tìm hiểu, Ashiyane Digital Security Team (ADST) là một trong ba nhóm hacker nổi tiếng nhất Iran, bên cạnh Iran Hackers Sabotage Team và Iran Babol-Hackers Security Team. Theo số liệu của Zone-H, ADST chịu trách nhiệm cho hàng ngàn vụ tấn công khác nhau, tính cả các vụ do từng thành viên đơn lẻ thực hiện.

Cũng giống như nhóm Iran Hackers Sabotage Team, mục đích chính của ADST là thông qua việc hack các trang web, chúng muốn bán những thông tin trợ giúp an ninh mạng, web hosting và dịch vụ mạng. Bên cạnh đó cũng có nhiều bằng chứng cho thấy động cơ chính trị trong những hành động phá hoại. Đơn cử như vụ tấn công vào trang web của NASA do nhóm này tiến hành là một câu trả lời cho những động thái của Mỹ tại Trung Đông.

ADST được tổ chức khá bài bản và quy củ. Chúng được chia thành nhiều nhóm, phụ trách nhiều mảng khác nhau như quản lý, thiết kế phần mềm hay nhóm chỉ có nhiệm vụ thay đổi hoàn toàn giao diện trang web bị hack.

Độ tuổi các thành viên ADST trung bình từ 16 đến 28 tuổi, nhóm người này sở hữu những kỹ năng công nghệ thông tin đa dạng. Phần lớn các thành viên đều thông thạo việc sử dụng các hệ điều hành như Windows, UNIX, Cisco IOS hay LINUX. Một số khác lại có kinh nghiệm lập trình trên nhiều nền ngôn ngữ như C, C++, VC++, Delphi hay Perl.

Mặc dù kỹ năng có thể khác nhau, nhưng tất cả đều “khoe khoang” đã có kinh nghiệm hack các hệ thống mạng, vượt tường lửa, bẻ khóa các shareware... Một vài thành viên thậm chí còn mở những lớp học dạy can thiệp vào hệ thống mạng, phân chia theo các cấp độ khác nhau.

Cuộc tấn công của ADST nhằm vào nhiều website Việt Nam có lẽ chỉ mang ý nghĩa lấy thành tích và tập luyện. Tuy nhiên, dù với lý do gì thì các hành động này cũng đáng bị lên án.

Việc nhóm hacker Iran hay Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ tấn công vào các web site tại Việt Nam đã ko còn là lạ, với việc lơ là bảo mật và chưa đầu tư nhiều vào công tác bảo mật nên các Website Việt Nam thường mắc những lỗi bảo mật rất căn bản. Qua tìm hiểu của mình thì các nhóm hacker Trung Đông tấn công các website của Vn thường bằng những lỗi sau đây:

  1. Dựa vào những lỗi đã được công bố của các mã nguồn mở thông dụng như Joomla, Phpnuke, Dotnetnuke . . .
  2. Lỗi WebDAV ( đây là một lỗi khá phổ biến trên các server chính phủ chạy phiên bản Windows server cũ)
  3. Hacker sử dụng các tool Auto để Bruce Force các Website và server đặt password kém
Có thời gian mình sẽ liệt kê dần những lỗi căn bản này!

Liên tiếp trong vài ngày gần đây, nhiều người phát hiện ra hàng loạt website của các tổ chức lớn tại Việt Nam đồng loạt bị tấn công nhằm mục đích deface (thay đổi) giao diện trang chủ.

Độ tuổi các thành viên ADST trung bình từ 16 đến 28 tuổi, nhóm người này sở hữu những kỹ năng công nghệ thông tin đa dạng. Phần lớn các thành viên đều thông thạo việc sử dụng các hệ điều hành như Windows, UNIX, Cisco IOS hay LINUX. Một số khác lại có kinh nghiệm lập trình trên nhiều nền ngôn ngữ như C, C++, VC++, Delphi hay Perl.

Mặc dù kỹ năng có thể khác nhau, nhưng tất cả đều “khoe khoang” đã có kinh nghiệm hack các hệ thống mạng, vượt tường lửa, bẻ khóa các shareware... Một vài thành viên thậm chí còn mở những lớp học dạy can thiệp vào hệ thống mạng, phân chia theo các cấp độ khác nhau.

Cuộc tấn công của ADST nhằm vào nhiều website Việt Nam có lẽ chỉ mang ý nghĩa lấy thành tích và tập luyện. Tuy nhiên, dù với lý do gì thì các hành động này cũng đáng bị lên án.

Việc nhóm hacker Iran hay Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ tấn công vào các web site tại Việt Nam đã ko còn là lạ, với việc lơ là bảo mật và chưa đầu tư nhiều vào công tác bảo mật nên các Website Việt Nam thường mắc những lỗi bảo mật rất căn bản. Qua tìm hiểu của mình thì các nhóm hacker Trung Đông tấn công các website của Vn thường bằng những lỗi sau đây:

  1. Dựa vào những lỗi đã được công bố của các mã nguồn mở thông dụng như Joomla, Phpnuke, Dotnetnuke . . .
  2. Lỗi WebDAV ( đây là một lỗi khá phổ biến trên các server chính phủ chạy phiên bản Windows server cũ)
  3. Hacker sử dụng các tool Auto để Bruce Force các Website và server đặt password kém
Có thời gian mình sẽ liệt kê dần những lỗi căn bản này!


When the last US combat brigade left Iraq last week, it did so in triumph. The 4th Stryker Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division rolled across the border into Kuwait leaving an Iraq that is relatively stable, even though many politicians and opponents of the war had called it hopeless less than four years ago. Many of the same people are similarly painting the war in Afghanistan as a lost cause today.


We should all be proud of the magnificent job that the US military has done in Iraq and Afghanistan. Units who fought in these theaters of the War on Terror include soldiers from the Georgia Army National Guard, Rangers from Hunter Army Air Field, and elements of the 3rd Infantry Division from Fort Benning. Georgia soldiers also served with units based around the country and the world.


The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have long been compared to the US experience in Vietnam with many warning of a quagmire as US forces engaged al Qaeda and Shiite insurgents. It is possible however, that many in this country have learned the wrong lesson from the history of the Vietnam War.


It is widely believed in some circles that it is almost impossible for a conventional force to defeat insurgents fighting a guerilla war. This view is ignorant both of world military history as well as the history of the many small wars that the US has fought around the world. The US military, especially the Marine Corps, has defeated or neutralized insurgents in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, the Philippines, Nicaragua, and even Vietnam. The story of these and other conflicts is detailed in Max Boot’s The Savage Wars of Peace.


Boot disputes the conventional wisdom that the US military was defeated by the Viet Cong in a guerilla war. He explains how General William Westmoreland was the wrong man for the command of the US forces in Vietnam. Westmoreland was a West Pointer who tried to fight a conventional, big unit war similar to what he experienced in WWII and Korea.


Mounting casualties led to increasing public opposition, especially after the Tet Offensive of 1968. During Tet, the VC violated an armistice to launch surprise attacks around South Vietnam. The scale of the attacks convinced many, including veteran newsman Walter Cronkite, that the insurgency was not nearly defeated, as many in the government and the military had claimed. In reality, Tat was a huge defeat for the VC. WE and ARVN counterattacks decimated VC ranks and they never recovered (Boot, p. 310).


In the wake of Tet, General Westmoreland was replaced by General Creighton Abrams. Abrams implemented a “one war” strategy that focused on “clear and hold” in a manner similar to General Piraeus’ successful strategy in Iraq. William Colby, leader of the CIA’s Phoenix Program was also instrumental in turning the war around. The Phoenix Program targeted VC cadres in South Vietnam and was responsible. The program led to the killing of 26,000 local VC as well capturing 33,000 and inducing 22,000 to defect (Boot, p. 310).


The methods of Abrams and Colby were so successful that in 1970, only two years after Tet, 90% of South Vietnam was under Saigon’s control (Boot, p. 311). Sir Richard Thompson, a counterinsurgency expert, wrote in 1970 that he was “able to visit areas and walk through villages which had been under VC control for years. There was a much greater feeling of security and people were ready to take up arms for the government because they sensed that the VC were weaker…. Existing roads are kept open, and more are being repaired and opened monthly” (Boot, p. 311).


Yet we know that the Vietnamese communists ultimately prevailed, overrunning the South and reuniting the nation under communist rule. So what happened? In a word: Congress.


Richard Nixon began a policy of Vietnamization, turning over prosecution of the war to the Vietnamese and drawing down US forces in the country. As US forces left, the North Vietnamese saw an opportunity. On March 30, 1972, the NVA launched its Easter Offensive, a conventional forces invasion of the South. Nevertheless, the ARVN forces were able to hold long enough for US airpower to inflict heavy losses on the invaders and the NVA was ultimately turned back (Boot, p. 310-311).


The strong showing led the North Vietnamese to sign the Paris Peace Treaty on January 27, 1973. This was a victory for the United States since it imposed an immediate ceasefire in addition to stipulating the withdrawal of US troops. President Nixon promised the South Vietnamese that the US would come to their aid if the North Vietnamese broke the ceasefire (http://hnn.us/articles/31400.html).


Unfortunately for the South Vietnamese, President Nixon was forced to resign in 1974. Even before that, Congress passed the Case-Church Amendment on June 19, 1973 which banned US military activity in Southeast Asia after August 15. Congress also cut aid to South Vietnam from $1.26 billion to $700 million (http://hnn.us/articles/31400.html). The North Vietnamese sensed blood in the water.


In 1975, the North Vietnamese launched a second conventional invasion of the South. This time, without American airpower or aid, the ARVNs fell back. Boot reports that the situation was so dire that the South Vietnamese troops had to reuse bandages taken from corpses (p. 310-311). With no American help forthcoming, an angry South Vietnamese President Thieu pleaded, “If [the U.S.] grant full aid we will hold the whole country, but if they only give half of it, we will only hold half of the country” (http://hnn.us/articles/31400.html). Instead, Congress granted no aid and South Vietnam fell in 55 days.


Many of the prominent Democrats who prevented the US from honoring its commitments to South Vietnam also opposed the Iraq War. These include Senators John Kerry and Ted Kennedy.


Knowing the full story of the fall of Saigon, the lesson that we should learn is that when our enemies cannot defeat us on the battlefield, they sow dissension at home. They realize that their best chance is to exhaust the political will of the government’s civilian leaders. General Vo Nguyen Giap, leader of the NVA, stated “We were not strong enough to drive out a half-million American troops, but that was not our aim. Our intention was to break the will of the American Government to continue the war” (Boot, p. 316).


A very real danger is that history will repeat itself in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thanks in large part to the sacrifice and hard work of the US military, Iraq is now much more stable than many observers believed possible a mere four years ago. The turnaround is also due to President Bush’s troop surge and General Petraeus’ counterinsurgency strategy. Afghanistan has further to go, but variations on the same strategy could also work there given enough time. It is a testimony to the stabilizing effect of US forces, and the reality of the danger that remains, that more than half of Iraqis did not want US troops to leave yet (http://frankwarner.typepad.com/free_frank_warner/2010/08/poll-60-of-iraqis-want-us-troops-to-stay.html).


Much of the violence in Iraq was caused by Shiite militia groups supported by Iran. Iran pledged to the Iraqi government in 2007 that it would stop equipping and training these groups (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/11/06/AR2007110600853.html). This pledge may have been partly to reduce the violence in Iraq and lull the US into a false sense of security, making it politically easier for the Obama Administration to withdraw US combat troops. It might also have been inspired by the possibility of uniting Iraqi Shiites into a political bloc that would elect a government friendly to Iran.


As Iran moves ever closer to developing nuclear weapons, it is possible that they will become emboldened by President Obama’s stated goal of a withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan by July 2011. A nuclear armed Iran that is faced with only token US opposition might well decide that a conventional invasion of Iraq is in their best interests. After all, Iraq is a long-time enemy that fought a decade long war with Iran in the 1980s. Perhaps more importantly, Iraq also controls significant oil reserves. Control of Iraq’s oil would make Iran exponentially more powerful on the world stage. Nuclear weapons in the Persian Gulf and conventional forces in Iraq would also threaten the vast oil reserves of Saudi Arabia.


The danger for the United States is that, like the Americans of 1975, we will be tempted to wash our hands of Iraq if an Iranian invasion comes. To do so, would be a mistake of the worst order. Not only would Iranian domination of the Persian Gulf threaten our own economy, it would also threaten our allies Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, as well as the economies of the industrialized world. It would be very difficult to form a “coalition of the willing” to stave off a nuclear-armed terrorist state.


Additionally, it would further damage America’s reputation abroad if countries in which the US has invested vast amounts of men and material are allowed to fall to Iran. A fall of Baghdad and Kabul would arouse similar emotions as the famous photo of US embassy personnel being evacuated by helicopter from the roof of the Saigon embassy. It would lead our allies to question whether we can be counted upon and our enemies to sense our weakness.


Americans should make no mistake: Just because US forces are no longer in a combat role in Iraq, it does not mean that the war is over. It merely means that US troops are less likely to die in combat and that native forces are doing the lion’s share of the work. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are likely to continue for some time as long as al Qaeda and Iran continue to oppose the elected governments and the US doesn’t cut off aid. As George Orwell once said, “the quickest way to end a war is to lose it.”

JFK: The CIA, Vietnam, and the Plot to Assassinate John F. Kennedy Review




I'm reading a stunning book written by the late L. Fletcher Prouty who served as the chief of special operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Kennedy presidency. A retired colonel of the U.S. Air Force, Prouty was in charge of the global system designed to provide military support for the CIA's secret activities. He knew where the bodies were buried and the file cabinet containing the paperwork used to cover it up.


Prouty was a source for Oliver Stone's movie "JFK" and was portrayed as "Mr. X" by Donald Sutherland, the man in black who advised New Orleans DA Jim Garrison (portrayed by Kevin Costner) that he was on the trail to the truth.


If you have ANY interest whatsoever in learning the truth of the events that led to what happened to our country on Nov. 22nd, 1963 and changed the course of its direction, read it.


A brief excerpt from the 375+ page book that is the most detailed account of the inception of the CIA and the events that culminated in the coup d'etat on Elm Street in Dallas on a sunny day in November.


Excerpt:


From Chapter 16 - Government by Coup d'Etat


The year was 1964. Pres. John F. Kennedy had been shot dead months before by bursts of "automatic gunfire" in Dallas by "mechanics," that is, skilled gunmen, hired by a power cabal determined to exert control over the United States government. Lyndon B. Johnson, JFK's successor, had been only a few feet under the bullets fired at Kennedy as he rode two cars back in that fatal procession.


By 1964 Johnson was becoming mired in the swamp of the Indochina conflict. Kennedy, who had vowed to "break the CIA into a thousand pieces," was dead. LBJ, who had heard those fatal bullets zing past his ears, had learned the ultimate lesson; and for good measure, Richard Nixon was in Dallas on that fatal day, so that he, too, had the fact of this ever-present danger imprinted on his memory for future use by his masters.


From Chapter 18 - Setting the Stage for the Death of JFK


"The significance of all this was that I had introduced President Kennedy's Vietnam policy statement NSAM #263, into these discussions. It is my belief that the policy announced so forcefully by Kennedy in his earlier NSAM #55 and in NSAM #263 had been the major factor in causing the decision by certain elements of the power elite to do away with Kennedy before his reelection and to take control of the U.S. government in the process.


Kennedy's NSAM #263 policy would have assured that Americans by the hundreds of thousands would not have been sent to the war in Vietnam. This policy was anathema to elements of the military-industrial complex, their bankers, and their allies in the government. This policy and the almost certain fact that Kennedy would have been reelected President in 1964 set the stage for the plot to assassinate him."


I can't put this book down. It is without doubt, the most thorough explanation of the rogue CIA, it's influence and impact on America's involvement in paramilitary operations around the world and subsequent growing conflicts. It is, as Prouty describes:


"...For the world as a whole, the CIA has now become the bogey that communism had been for America. Wherever there is trouble, violence, suffering, tragedy, the rest of us are now quick to suspect the CIA had a hand in it. Our phobia about the CIA is, no doubt, as fantastically excessive as America's phobia about world communism; but in this case, too, there is just enough convincing guidance to make the phobia genuine...


"This is what the destruction of sovereignty and disregard for the rule of law means, and it will not stop there. With it will go property rights -- as we have witnessed in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union -- and the rights of man."


It's not hard to understand why Obama hasn't pulled out of Iraq or Afghanistan. He can't. The military industrial complex and their bankers won't let him.


This is a fascinating look into the world of the power elite: the supremely powerful international bankers who keep the books and balances for each side.


"They make these transactions possible by offering the loans, issuing letters of credit, and collecting the interest on the entire package. In many LDCs (third world "less developed countries") the total amount of interest paid to the banks and their international financing structure amounts to more than half of the total value of dollars earned by their exports. For this reason, annual payments are seldom more than the interest involved and none of the principal. This is one reason why the principal never comes back to the United States." (p. 243 - Ch. Sixteen - Government by Coup d'Etat)


Though the title focuses on the CIA, Vietnam and the plot to kill JFK, this 355 page (not including six pages of notes) book goes much further. It lays out and explains the real power -- the international power elite -- that designs the strategy and moves the pieces on the global chess board of politics, finance, and wars, domestic and international.


Prouty's very detailed book is based on a 19-part magazine series first developed by Prouty, with and published by Freedom Magazine. Prouty served as the chief of special operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Kennedy presidency. A retired U.S. Air Force colonel, Prouty was in charge of the global system that provided military support for the CIA's secret activities. He was witness to activities, machinations and policy-making in the Pentagon and the White House that few others can claim. Prouty died in 2001.


"The year was 1964. Pres. John F. Kennedy had been shot dead months before by bursts of "automatic gunfire" in Dallas by "mechanics," that is, skilled gunmen hired by a power cabal determined to exert control over the United States government. Lyndon B. Johnson, JFK's successor, had been only a few feet under the bullets fired at Kennedy as he rode two cars back in that fatal procession.


"By 1964 Johnson was becoming mired in the swamp of the Indochina conflict. Kennedy, who had vowed to "break the CIA into a thousand pieces," was dead. LBJ, who heard those fatal bullets zing past his ears, had learned the ultimate lesson; and for good measure, Richard Nixon was in Dallas on that fateful day, so that he, too, had the fact of this ever-present danger imprinted on his memory for future use by his masters. (Ch. Sixteen, Government by Coup d'Etat - p 232)

When World War II ended with the nuclear bomb, the military industrial complex had a dilemma -- it understood that the next world war would be the final one, Yet it needed a way to keep the lucrative business of war making alive and profitable. How? By fighting a war waged for dollars, without a true military objective, under the control of civilian leaders, a war never intended to achieve victory. Enter Vietnam. Sound familiar?


Chapter Eighteen - "Setting the Stage for the Death of JFK"


[p 267]


Kennedy's NSAM #265 policy would have assured that Americans by the hundreds of thousands would not have been sent to the war in Vietnam. This policy was anathema to elements of the military-industrial complex, their bankers, and their allies in the government. This policy and the almost certain fact that Kennedy would be reelected President in 1964 set the stage for the plot to assassinate him.


[snip]


First of all, NSAM #263, October 11, 1963, was a crucial White House document. Much of it, guided by White House policy, was actually written by my boss in the Pentagon, General Krulak, myself, and others of his staff. I am familiar with it and with events which led to its creation.


[snip]


Our history books and the basic sources of history which lie buried in the archives of government documents that have been concealed from the public, and worse still, government documents that have been tampered with and forged. As I have just demonstrated above, this most important policy statement, NSAM #263, that so many historians and journalists say does not exist, has been divided into two sections in the Pentagon Papers source history.

Chapter Nineteen - Visions of a Kennedy Dynasty


[pp 289-290]


"With Kennedy's announcement that he was getting Americans out of Vietnam, he confirmed that he was moving away from the pattern of Cold War confrontation in favor of détente. He asked Congress to cut the defense budget. Major programs were being phased out. As a result, pressure from several fronts began to build against the young President. The pressure came from those most affected by cuts in the military budget, in the NASA space program, and in the enormous potential cost -- and profit -- of the Vietnam War.


Kennedy's plans would mean an end to the warfare in Indochina, which the United States had been supporting for nearly two decades. This would mean the end to some very big business plans, as the following anecdote will illustrate.


It was reported in an earlier chapter that the First National Bank of Boston had sent William F. Thompson, a vice president, to my office in the Pentagon in 1959, presumably after discussions with CIA officials, to explore "the future of the utilization of the helicopter in [clandestine] military operations" that had been taking place in Indochina up to 1959.


A client of that bank was Textron, Inc. The bank had suggested to Textron officials that the acquisition of the near-bankrupt Bell Aircraft Company, and particularly its helicopter division, might be a good move. What the bank and Textron needed to determine was the extent of use of helicopters by the military and by the CIA then and the potential for their future in Indochina.


Both parties were satisfied with the information they acquired from the Pentagon and from other sources in Washington. In due time the acquisition took place, and on October 13, 1963, news media in South Vietnam reported that an elite paramilitary force had made its first helicopter strike against the Vietcong from "Huey" Bell-Textron helicopters. It was also reported in an earlier chapter that more than five thousand helicopters were ultimately destroyed in Indochina and that billions of dollars were spent on helicopter purchases for those lost and their replacements.


Continuing the warfare in Vietnam, in other words, was of vital importance to these particular powerful financial and manufacturing groups. And helicopters, of course, were but one part of the 0 billion cost of U.S. participation in that conflict. Most of the 0 billion, in fact, was spent after 1963; only - billion had been spent on direct U.S. military activities in Vietnam in all of the years since World War II up to and including 1963. Had Kennedy lived, it would not have gone much higher than that.


It is often difficult to retrace episodes in history and to locate an incident that became crucial to subsequent events. Here, however, we have a rare opportunity.


The success of the deal between the First National Bank of Boston, Textron, and Bell hinged on the escalation of the war in Indochina. A key man in this plan was Walter Dornberger, chief of the German Rocket Center at Peenemunde, Germany, during World War II and later an official with the Bell Aircraft Company. Dornberger's associate and later protegé from Peenumunde, Wehrner von Braun, who had been instrumental in the development of the army's Pershing and Jupiter rocket systems, became a central figure in NASA's plans for the race to the moon. Such connections among skilled technicians can be of great importance within the military-industrial complex, as they generally lead to bigger budgets for all related programs.


Kennedy had announced a reduced military budget, the end of American participation in Indochina, and a major change in the race to the moon. It takes no special wisdom or inside knowledge to understand that certain vested interests considered the Kennedy proposal to defuse Vietnam and these other major budget items to be extremely dangerous to their own plans.


The pressure brought to bear on Kennedy was intense, but some sort of major event was needed that would stir emotions and trigger action. It is very likely that the death of President Ngo Dinh Diem of Vietnam and his brother, Ngo Dinh Nhu, on November 1, 1963, in Saigon was one of those events. There were at least eight or nine more that, in retrospect, indicate that a plot against Kennedy had begun to unfold."


~~*~~


Is it any wonder that despite his campaign rhetoric to the contrary, Obama is still in Iraq and Afghanistan???


If you apply what Prouty reveals, it follows that Obama does not do anything unless it is decreed by the international power elite -- from pulling out of Iraq/Afghanistan to protecting our Gulf Coast oil-stained states.


JFK didn't dance to the tune of his masters. He did it his way. It cost him his life. Obama is the creation of his masters. He serves at their pleasure. He won't make JFK's mistake. You can count on it.

JFK: The CIA, Vietnam, and the Plot to Assassinate John F. Kennedy Overview


The story of the man who inspired Oliver Stone’s JFK. Colonel L. Fletcher Prouty, the former CIA operative known as “X,” offers a history-shaking perspective on the assassination of president John F. Kennedy. His theories were the basis for Oliver Stone’s controversial movie JFK. Prouty believed that Kennedy’s death was a coup d’état, and he backs this belief up with his knowledge of the security arrangements at Dallas and other tidbits that only a CIA insider would know (for example, that every member of Kennedy’s cabinet was abroad at the time of Kennedy’s assassination). His discussion of the elite power base he believes controlled the U.S. government will scare and enlighten anyone who wants to know who was really behind the assassination of John F. Kennedy. 40 b&w illustrations

Wow, must read for those curious about our future. - R. Ricsin -
Prouty explains how the CIA evolved from an intelligence gathering agency into a terrorist organization. You may not believe me about this, but once you read the books and consult the references, you will see how nefarious the CIA has been.


I was not a fan of JFK when I was younger due to my ignorance. After reading this book and seeing the JFK movie by Oliver Stone, I can say that JFK was a real man of honor who gave his life for it.


Who was Maj. Gen. E.G. ? - C. Butler - Kristianstad, Sweden - an American ex-Patriot
In Oliver Stone's film "JFK" in the Mall Scene meeting between D.A. Jim Garrison (played by Kevin Costner) and "Man X" (played by Donald Sutherland), a flashback scene presented a nameplate from the desk of an Air Force military general speaking on the phone, and partialy showing his name as Maj/Gen. E.G. (unknown)?


Who was Stone attempting to make reference to and cast aspersions upon Maj. General E.G. Lansdale?


Does anybody know?? Will check back from time-to-time is see "IF" any comments are posted to my inquiry. Thanks!


A killer book - Jon Holland - Monticello, Georgia USA
This is an excellent book.I personally own a harback edition that is autographed by Colonel Prouty to me. I am a firm believer in what he said and I believe that this sort of behavior still goes on today. War is money and it always will be. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the murder of President Kennedy.
