Dr. Hoi Van Do

1. Thank you. (See Bac Si Dr. Hoi Van Do below) You are right. What can we do?

2. We have our April 30 event this Saturday. The American Viet Nam Veterans have an event in the afternoon at the Veterans' Plaza. Vietnamese Viet Nam veterans will also speak at that. In the evening our Vietnamese-American community has its event of remembrance and we American Viet Nam veterans will attend that and speak there as well. (I have been invited to speak there and I am busily preparing my speech in Vietnamese as well as English.) We will certainly bring up this mockery in Austin.

3. Is there anything else we can do?

4. By the way, my view is that "We won the War." One example of that: in 1986 for Doi Moi Policy, the Communists admitted they were wrong, including economically. They also virtually confessed that people in Viet Nam did not want their so-called reforms. When I go to Viet Nam, I see many other signs and talk to many people who say we were the ones who were right, not the Communists, nor the antiwar protestors, nor many in the general media. My view also is that one day, the history books will proclaim that truth.

Thank you Sir,

As former member of Armed Forces of RVN (Medical Unit in Pleiku and Cantho), I appreciate your response on the so-called "Vietnam War Summit" that is only the opportunity for antiwar guys, communist sympathizers, and communists to spread propaganda pro Vietnamese communists.

We need speak out loudly against this vicious act.

Best Regards,

Dr. Hoi Van Do

TO ALL Here was my response to this one-sided Texas conference on Viet Nam. This is just propaganda and a camouflage which really dishonors all who fought on ALL SIDES OF THAT WAR. From Joseph Patrick Meissner, Viet Nam Veteran, LTC-RET

TO All

FROM  Joseph Patrick Meissner, Attorney and Viet Nam Veteran

1. Very briefly, I am shocked, surprised, and angry at this one-sided biased summit on the Viet Nam War. (See below) I am contacting this summit organizers and asking them to reschedule the summit and to include all sides that were involved in that bloody war. Also the presenters must be representative of all sides. Otherwise this is just another propaganda Camouflage and trick. There are at least two million people of Vietnamese background in the United States who suffered in that war, who fought on the side of freedom and Democracy against the oppressors, whose sons and husbands and mothers and sisters fought and died in that war seeking freedom, who were forced to leave their homes which they very much loved, and were compelled to leave for other countries.

2. I am an American Viet Nam Veteran. I was a proud member of 5th Special Forces in Viet Nam in 1968 and 1969. I have been active in many veteran groups since 1975 and worked to help our American veterans as they readjusted after the war.

3. I have been active with the Vietnamese American community since May 1975. I was the co-chair of the Vietnamese Information Services in Northern Ohio who helped to resettle some 15,000 Vietnamese people. I personally helped to sponsor our Vietnamese interpreter and her large family who were forced to escape Viet Nam in 1975.

4. Since 1975 I have been very proud and privileged to be the legal representative for our community. Again I have been asked to speak on April 30 this year at the Community meeting which remembers and celebrates all those who fought and died in that war, striving for freedom.

5. I have written a book, The Green Berets and their Victories, which celebrates the achievements of the Special Forces in Viet Nam.

6. I have been back to Viet Nam some thirty times since 1993. I have worked with a humanitarian foundation which has brought over 1,000 volunteers to Viet Nam who have done humanitarian work there. The organization was founded by a remarkable Vietnamese woman, who was an interpreter and staff person for the Allied forces in the War.   She has reached out to various members in the current and past government of Viet Nam, working with them on healing the wounds from that War, wounds affecting American veterans, Vietnamese veterans from all sides. We do not and must not forget the bravery of all these soldiers and their sacrifices. This one-sided summit makes a mockery of all these groups and their struggles. Through her work, millions of dollars of private funding in terms of scholarships, aid to the elderly and infirm, the poor, local rural villages, schools, medical services and equipment, and other help has been provided to the people in Viet Nam. She has worked with the various women's groups in Viet Nam to provide help for all.

7. This summit also must include representatives of the Kampuchean community and the Laotian as well as the various Montegnard tribes. Otherwise, my judgment is that this summit is simply a propaganda trick and charade.

8. Please let us hear what we can do to protest this summit, to change its structure, and to insure that all sides are fairly represented in it.

Thank you. Gap lai

DECLARATION

Of The Vietnamese Community Overseas and In Vietnam

On the occasion of Vietnam War Summit

At the LBJ Library, Austin, Texas

The "Vietnam War Summit" will be held at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library in Austin, Texas from 26 to April 28, 2016. One of the proclaimed purposes is to study, discuss and to "shed light on the Vietnam war, its lessons and its heritage." The special guests include US Secretary John Kerry; Dr. Henry Kissinger, former US Secretary of State in President Nixon’s administration; Mr. Pham Quang Vinh, the Vietnam Ambassador to the US; Mr. Ken Burns, who will perform the 10-part film about the Vietnam War; a number of Vietnam war veterans, and a some well-known number of antiwar activists as Tom Hayden, Peter Arnett... Strangely, none of the Vietnamese officials who served in the government or in the armed forces of the former Republic of Vietnam and no official representatives of Vietnamese Community was invited to participate in the discussions, except for Texan Vietnamese American Congressman who was too young during the wartime and had no experience of the Vietnam War.

The organizations of Vietnamese communities, both overseas and in Vietnam, therefore proclaim the following views on the Vietnam War:

1. After the end of the Second World War, the intent of the allied powers (the US, Russia and Britain) was to end colonialism as shown by the Yalta Conference dated 11-2-1945. Many countries have thus regained their independence. The Vietnamese Communist Party by initiating the war in 1945, which resulted in the division of Vietnam into two separate states, and by initiating the invasion of South Vietnam, was responsible to the devastation and millions of casualties on all sides.

2. In 1954, the Geneva Agreement was signed between Ho Chi Minh and France dividing Vietnam in North and South. The United States helped the South (Republic of Vietnam) to build democracy and economy, and had achieved good results. But unfortunately Ho Chi Minh sent North Vietnamese Communist troops invading the South, and the United States as the leader of the free world, had to appeal to its allies to send their troops to protect South Vietnam.

3. Due to the shift of the US foreign policy, the rising of the antiwar movement and the pro-communist elements among the American population, the United States signed the 1973 Paris Peace Accords to end the war, and at the same time to cut aid to South Vietnam, while North Vietnamese communist continued to attack South Vietnam militarily with increasing support from the Communist bloc leading to the collapse of the South Vietnam on April 30, 1975.

4. There have been false assumptions and prejudices about the cause of the fight to protect freedom, and about the heroic struggle of the US soldiers and Armed Forces of Republic of Vietnam.

5. The Vietnam War resulted in:

a. Over 3 million Vietnamese nationals killed from 1945 to 1975 in a war created by Ho Chi Minh and the Communists; 58,000 US soldiers died, many were injured, some are still missing.

b. After the invasion and occupation of South-Vietnam in 1975, the Communist government systematically implement a policy of revenge against the citizens of the Republic of Vietnam, by devaluating the values of their currency, by occupying their homes and confiscating their businesses, by incarcerating hundreds of thousands of South-Vietnamese officers and civil servants in so-called reeducation camps, where they were brutally treated and where many died of exhaustion or deprivation.

c. Since the Communist take-over of the whole country, over two million Vietnamese citizens had to seek freedom in other countries, where they live for many years as refugees. In their search for freedom, about half a million died at sea, others suffered immensurable hardship at the hands of pirate.

d. After 41 years since 1975, as a the leader of the world, economically and militarily, the United States might help Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries cope with the current Chinese expansion. Regrettably, the US policy toward communist Vietnam now has not set human rights as a prerequisites, thus the Vietnamese Communist party has remained a regime of totalitarianism, performed religious persecution, deprived of the fundamental human rights of the people of Vietnam.

Therefore, we solemnly declared:

1. The US armed forces who served in the Vietnam war, the Allied forces and the Armed Forces of Republic of Vietnam, who have fought side by side to stop the expansion of Communism in South-East Asia, and in doing so was able to preserve freedom and democracy in South Vietnam until the final invasion of Communist forces in 1975. These valiant service men and women must be recognized and honored.

2. The United States should pose human rights watch as a condition in foreign policy, trade with Communist Vietnam.

3. The world, including the United States, should pose the interests of the 90 million people of Vietnam over those of minorities of 4.5 million Communist Party members by helping the people of Vietnam regain their freedom and democracy, and develop their economy, thus contributing to the prosperity and peace of the world.

4. The point of view of the Communist Vietnam Ambassador to the US will certainly be biased as he represents a dictatorial, one-party regime that does not respect the people’s freedom of expression and that teaches its citizens its own version of the Vietnam War and its invasion of South-Vietnam.

5. We deplore the fact that the organizers of “The Vietnam War Summit” failed to include to the panel someone who has served in the Republic of Vietnam, who is cognizant of the reality of the political situation during the different periods predating the Vietnam War, and who is able to present the viewpoint of the people of South Vietnam, in order to shed a true light on the significance of the Vietnam War.

6. For the summit, we recommend a fair, objective and accurate assessment of the origin of the Vietnam War, the conducts by all parties during the War, the negotiations to end the war, and especially the results of these negotiations which resulted in lopsided agreements that left South-Vietnam bereft of military supports from its allies, while North Vietnam continued to receive ample supplies from their patrons, the Soviet Union and Communist China.
