Vero Beach, FL - (TRUNEWS) U.S. Senator John McCain recorded a Tokyo Rose-style propaganda message that was broadcast on North Vietnamese radio in 1969. TRUNEWS, a nonprofit Christian digital news app, obtained the bombshell audio recording and released it today on the organization’s daily newscast hosted by Rick Wiles. TRUNEWS acquired the audio recording in cooperation with WeSearchR.com, a new media company founded by Charles Johnson. The 1969 North Vietnamese radio broadcast has never been heard in the United States of America. In fact, there has never been any knowledge that such a recording existed. The audio recording was found in a misplaced file in the National Archives in Washington, D.C. The broadcast was recorded by the Foreign Broadcast Information Service, a branch of the CIA that monitored international shortwave and foreign radio broadcasts. Lt. Commander John McCain was shot down over Hanoi by a North Vietnamese missile while flying his 23rd bombing mission. Both of his arms and one leg were broken. He was pulled ashore by North Vietnamese who took him to a prison known by POWs as the “Hanoi Hilton.” McCain was a prisoner of war for five and a half years. He was released on March 14, 1973, and returned to the United States of America as a war hero. His POW legacy propelled McCain to victory in a race for a U.S. Congressional seat in Arizona in 1982. He replaced Barry Goldwater in the Senate in 1986. In the propaganda recording, Lt. Commander McCain said he was “guilty of crimes against the Vietnamese country and people.” He confessed that he bombed “their cities, towns, and villages and caused many injuries, even deaths, for the people of Vietnam.” He praised the medical care and kindness of his communist captors even though he came to North Vietnam as “an aggressor.” McCain said he wished to express his “deep gratitude” for their “kind treatment” and that he “will never forget” the kindness extended to him by the communist North Vietnamese. Senator McCain is running for a sixth six-year term in the Senate. He is facing a strong primary challenge from former State Senator Dr. Kelli Ward, a physician in Lake Havasu. The Arizona Republican Primary is August 30. Sen. McCain will turn age 80 on the day before the primary. Here is the actual script of John McCain’s 1969 “Tokyo Rose” propaganda broadcast on North Vietnamese radio. To the Vietnamese people and the government of the DRVN: From John Sidney McCain, 624787, Lieutenant Commander, U.S. Navy, born 29 August, 1936, Panama, home state Oregon. Shot down 26 October, 1967, A-4E aircraft. I, as a U.S. airman, am guilty of crimes against the Vietnamese country and people. I bombed their cities, towns and villages and caused many injuries, even deaths, for the people of Vietnam. I was captured in the capital city of Hanoi, while attacking it. After I was captured, I was taken to the hospital in Hanoi, where I received very good medical treatment. I was given an operation on my leg, which allowed me to walk again, and a cast on my right arm, which was badly broken in three places. The doctors were very good and they knew a great deal about the practice of medicine. I remained in the hospital for some time and regained much of my health and strength. Since I arrived in the camp of detention, I received humane and lenient treatment. I received this kind treatment and food even though I came here as an aggressor and the people who I injured have much difficulty in their living standards. I wish to express my deep gratitude for my kind treatment and I will never forget this kindness extended to me. To listen to the full interview click here for the August 4th edition of TRUNEWS. Poster Comment: Hanoi John, GOP presidential candidate 2008. Endorsed by GOP presidential candidate Donald J. Trump, for re-election 2016. What difference does it make, millions of loyal partisan hack Republicans voted for this known traitor in '08? Piss on Trump/McCain 2016! Need some of these with Trump endorsing McCain for US Senate.

Hanoi John ... There was no good reason to post this trash on LF. John McCain did absolutely nothing as a POW that was dishonorable. He did exactly what he was taught to do. Those of us who have been through the Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (SERE) training program know he followed the procedures we learned there. Those who are not familiar with the SERE program need to be enlightened. SERE provided Military Aircrew and Special Operations personnel with training in evading capture, survival skills, and the military code of conduct. the program was established by the Air Force and later extended to the Marine Corps, Navy and Army. The training was for those personnel considered to be at high risk of capture. The curriculum had three key parts: survival and evasion; resistance and escape; and water survival. Some parts were (may still be) classified. A statement by a Marine lieutenant who completed the SERE training: The trainees at SERE were taught to resist torture as long as humanly possible before submitting and then resort first to lying. John McCain did that, many others also did that. Nels Tanner was tortured into writing a confession of war crimes; he identified a Lt. Clark Kent and was thereafter known as the author of Superman’s confession. While transported to Hanoi after being shot down, Jim Mulligan’s captors poured gasoline over his bound arms, fusing threads of rope into his wounds. Howie Rutledge was beaten mercilessly during his first day in captivity; refusing to give up his ship and squadron, he was told to get on the floor, and a guard thrashed his injured and dislocated leg until it pressed flat on the ground. He and Sam Johnson had both suffered over 60 boils each during one summer, and Johnson had been held in solitary multiple times, often going six days in a row without sunlight. Ron Storz had been made to stand on a stool for seven days straight, beaten nearly to death by a bamboo stick. Hands tied behind his back, George McKnight was held for 34 nights in an air-raid trench 4 feet long; he was 6-foot-2. They beat George McKnight for 36 hours straight; they beat and tortured Denton so brutally his arms turned black; Jim Mulligan was strung up and beaten for six days, Nels Tanner for 17. Sam Johnson was so brutalized that when he finally submitted, he literally could not write the apology demanded by the Vietnamese. He was able only to sign it, and when he was thrown back in his cell, he heard Jerry Denton whispering to him from next door. “Sam, Sam, it’s OK, buddy.” “I made them write it, Jerry,” he replied. “But I had to sign it.” “It’s OK, Sam,” Jerry said. “You’re OK. Hang on, You did good.”
Attaboy!
I am pretty sure McCain was caught in the Vietnam War by the offensive military forces. That action is dishonorable all by itself, especially when the POW agrees with his captors.
This coming from an asshole who spent his short military career as a photographer stationed in Germany and was never tortured as a POW in the Hanoi Hilton...is understandable.
You're so right and these people do not comprehend intelligence matters. Every f*cking moron realizes that everyone will talk and the military recognizes that this will happen. Only an IDIOT believes that McCain was a traitor for doing a tape. The assholes here wouldn't have lasted a day under captivity without giving there momma up.
The assholes here wouldn't have lasted a day under captivity without giving there momma up. So true….so very true. For in the end it became known that the torture was sufficiently brutal and prolonged that virtually every American POW so subjected made a statement of some kind at some time. Upon being released, one POW said that when he was finally forced to make an anti-American statement: "I had learned what we all learned over there: Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine.” The POWs developed an internal creed: "Take physical torture until you are right at the edge of losing your ability to be rational. At that point, lie, do, or say whatever you must do to survive. But you first must take physical torture."
Gee - I wonder why someone of McStain's "heroic caliber" buried information about POWs left behind in Vietnam? John McCain, who has risen to political prominence on his image as a Vietnam POW war hero, has, inexplicably, worked very hard to hide from the public stunning information about American prisoners in Vietnam who, unlike him, didn’t return home. Throughout his Senate career, McCain has quietly sponsored and pushed into federal law a set of prohibitions that keep the most revealing information about these men buried as classified documents. Thus the war hero who people would logically imagine as a determined crusader for the interests of POWs and their families became instead the strange champion of hiding the evidence and closing the books.
https://www.intellihub.com/john-mccain-is-no-war-hero-he-has-covered-up-pows-left-behind-in-vietnam-for-years/ Gatlin, McCain, Jame Fonda, and their neocon lackeys, Trump, Pence, etc. are still covering up for the chicoms after all these decades. I wonder, if there were North Korean collaborators running for president(R), would Gatlin support them too?
One thing you can always be absolutely assured of and that is Gatlin will support the TRUTH.... something you are totally unfamiliar with doing. I will not blindly buy into hearsay and agenda driven erroneous information simply because I agree with it....as you continue to do.

John McCain's "Tokyo Rose" Propaganda Broadcast---Now Found and Released! America’s mainstream media universally portrays John McCain as one of our country’s greatest national patriots, a military hero who steadfastly stayed loyal despite suffering unspeakable torture at the hands of his Communist captors during the Vietnam War. Last year, I published a major article pulling together the strands of evidence suggesting that this widespread narrative is actually a hoax from beginning to end. Instead of being resisting his jailers, John McCain instead seems to have been one of Hanoi’s leading military collaborators almost from the moment he was captured. Furthermore, it’s doubtful he was ever tortured, but much more likely that McCain simply invented those claims as a preemptive defense against the danger of facing a court martial for collaboration upon his return. John McCain: When “Tokyo Rose” Ran for President by Ron Unz Most importantly, McCain’s very doubtful war record probably explains why later as a Senator he was so eager to lead the cover-up of the hundreds of American POWs who were probably betrayed and abandoned in Vietnam at the end of the war, as documented by Pulitzer Prize winner Sydney Schanberg and others. He protected the wartime secrets of others in exchange for their protection of his own. John McCain and the POW Cover-Up by Sydney Schanberg

While I was in the school, I lived like an animal. I was hooded, beaten, starved, stripped naked, and hosed down in the December air until I became hypothermic. At one point, I couldn't speak because I was shivering so hard. Thrown into a 3-by-3-foot cage with only a rusted coffee can to piss into, I was told that the worst had yet to come. I was violently interrogated three times. When I forgot my prisoner number, I was strapped to a gurney and made to watch as a fellow prisoner was water-boarded a foot away from me. I will never forget the sound of that young sailor choking, seemingly near death, paying for my mistake. I remember only the sound because, try as I might, I couldn't force myself to look at his face. I was next. But for some reason, the guards just dropped the hose on my chest, the water soaking my uniform. I was incarcerated at SERE for only a few days, but my mind quickly disintegrated. I became convinced that I was being held in an actual prisoner of war camp. Training had stopped, from my point of view. We had crossed over into some murky shadow land where the regulations no longer applied. I was sure that my captors, who wore Warsaw Pact-style uniforms and spoke with thick Slavic accents, would go all the way if the need arose.
That’s a brief summary by one individual who attended SERE. For explicated details from another individual who also attended SERE on what it was like to attend the Navy’s Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (SERE) School in Brunswick, Maine during the winter of 1984, click here. This was the situation with Harry Jenkins, a 6-foot-5 Navy pilot who refused to give up what his father did for a living — once they got that, they’d want more and more. Jenkins was tortured so brutally, he was sure he’d lose his hands. He passed out, and when he came to, his tormenters hung him from his wrists — still tied behind his back — from a meat hook. He had never conceived of such pain. He asked God to take him. Again, Jenkins passed out. When he came to again, he was made to kneel on gravel for hours, and only when the skin was sheared from his kneecaps did he submit. “My father grows flowers,” he said.
The torture was constant at the Hanoi Hilton. The POWs were thrown in tiny cells, slabs of concrete for beds, single, bare lightbulbs making sleep impossible. They were in a constant state of starvation, and when they were fed, their watery soup was laced with pebbles or feces. They were made to stand on stacked stools for days on end. They were often strapped down by 15-pound leg irons, which caused lacerations and infection, or by stocks at the ends of their beds, which kept them on their backs for days. The walls and floors were overrun with roaches and rats. When they were strapped down, they were forced to lie in their own excrement.
Before condemning John McCain by sarcastically and contemptuously referring to him as Hanoi John (using the inference to relate to the traitorous actions by the despicable Hanoi Jane) for any statement he made as as POW, you need to realize that each of the men would break and each of the POWs fully understood that.
