A Ho Chi Minh City museum that honors Vietnam war protesters features
a photograph of Sen. John Kerry being greeted by the general secretary
of the Communist Party, Comrade Do Muoi.
A snapshot of the display in the Vietnamese Communist War Remnants
Museum - formerly known as the "War Crimes Museum" - was acquired over
the weekend by Jeffrey M. Epstein of Vietnam Vets for the Truth, a
group opposing Kerry's campaign for the presidency.
Vietnam veteran Bill Lupetti took this photograph of a display at a Ho
Chi Minh City museum honoring war protesters.
A spokesman with Kerry's national campaign did not return a call from
WND seeking comment.
The snapshot of the display, which depicts a July 1993 meeting, was
forwarded to Epstein by Bob Shirley, one of more than 200 members of
Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth who signed an open letter
questioning Kerry's fitness to serve as commander in chief.
Epstein said the picture of the display was taken by Bill Lupetti, a
Swift Boat Veteran who currently is visiting Vietnam.
Epstein said the display photograph's "unquestionable significance
lies in its placement in the American protesters' section of the War
Crimes Museum" in Ho Chi Minh City, the former Saigon.
"The Vietnamese communists clearly recognize John Kerry's
contributions to their victory," he said. "This find can be compared
to the discovery of a painting of Neville Chamberlain hanging in a
place of honor in Hitler's Eagle's Nest in 1945."

Below the display photograph are explanatory placards in English,
French, Vietnamese and Chinese.
The English placard reads: "Mr. Do Muoi, Secretary General of the
Vietnamese Communist Party met with Congressman and Veterans
Delegation in Vietnam (July 15-18, 1993)."
Epstein's group says the exhibit refutes Kerry's insistence his
anti-war protests did not render support to the enemy in time of war.
"The Vietnamese communists clearly feel that the American anti-war
protesters were a very important force in undermining support in the
United States for American war efforts, a force that contributed
materially to ultimate communist victory in 1975," the group said in a
statement.
Vietnam Vets for the Truth says it was established to organize a rally
publicizing "Kerry's lies" during the "Winter Soldier" hearings in the
U.S. Senate in 1971. The rally, called "Kerry Lied," will be held on
Capitol Hill Sept. 12.
The Swift Boat Veterans also have called on Kerry to stop unauthorized
use of their images in national campaign advertising.The group says
only two of the 20 officers in one photo support him and 11 have
signed the letter condemning the candidate.
One veteran in the photo, William Shumadine, said Kerry's use of the
photo "is a complete misrepresentation to the public and a total
fraud."
