Monday, July 12, 2010 — Thanks to the Chinese government, we finally know why America lost in Vietnam. It was the Monkey Gap.
The Internet is abuzz this morning with a story emanating from the People’s Daily Online, headlined “Monkeys trained as battlefield killers in Afghanistan.” The story goes on to say that a “British-based media agency,” had photographed “monkey soldiers” trained by the Taliban and armed with AK-47s and Bren guns in Waziristan.
Most of the reporting on this story concerns the implications for the future in Afghanistan. Backward-looking organization that we are, we’re more interested in its historical implications.
“Ironically,” People’s Daily reports, “the initiators of ‘monkey soldiers’ are the Americans. Between the 1960s and the 1970s, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) trained massive ‘monkey soldiers’ in the Vietnam War and dispatched armed monkeys to dangerous jungles to launch assaults on Vietnamese soldiers.”
Clearly our supply of monkeys was inadequate to defeat the challenge posed by the NVA.
Investment tip for our readers: now’s the time to get in on the ground floor of a whole new sector of the defense industry.
Is this the state of Chinese journalism? They just make up facts about the CIA and Vietnam and, good lord, a MONKEY ARMY?
The ends justify the means?
“[ Footnote 4 ] The intelligence community believed that it was necessary “to conceal these activities from the American public in general,” because public knowledge of the “unethical and illicit activities would have serious repercussions in political and diplomatic circles and would be detrimental to the accomplishment of its mission.” Id., at 394 (quoting CIA Inspector General’s Survey of the Technical Services Division, p. 217 (1957)).” See [Footnote 4 of IV] U.S. 709 U.S. Supreme Court 1987 STANLEY military experiment case. [3] The “Veterans Right to Know Act” to establish the Veterans’ Right to Know Commission was proposed in the 2005 and H.R. 4259 [109th] 2006 Congress.[9] In accordance with the ongoing greater good necessity “to conceal these activities…” a veteran’s right to get the U.S. Senate’s “designed to harm” needed for treatment, and experiment identifying, evidence never became law.
To-date rejected is the U.S. Senate 1994 Report’s, “The Feres Doctrine should not be applied for military personnel who are harmed by inappropriate human experimentation when informed consent has not been given.”[8] Despite the 16 of 66 year efforts of some, the U.S. Congress has failed to protect service personnel from “to harm” experiments. Therefore, do not the U.S. Senate’s reported Department of Defense (DOD) “EXPERIMENTS THAT WERE DESIGNED TO HARM” [8] continue?
Please have your members in the U.S. Congress give back to service personnel and veterans those rights that convicted rapists and murderers keep, e.g., “Written policy and practice prohibit the use of” [prison] “inmates for medical…..experiments.”! See page 13 of 14, REF: [6] The U.S. Supreme Court’s 1987 STANLEY [3] “to harm” DOD experiment is approved by the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1950 FERES [1] ‘can do no wrong, ends justify the means’ Doctrine. The STANLEY case is one of the U.S. Senate’s 1994 “During the last 50 years, hundreds of thousands of military personnel” were subjected to “experiments that were designed to harm”, e.g., the reported biological and chemical agents, radiation exposure, hallucinogenic and investigational drugs, experimental vaccines and behavior modification projects.[8] It is a dereliction of duty in direct disobedience of the DOD Secretary’s 26 February 1953 NO non-consensual, human experiments.[2] During the U.S. Senate’s reported past 50 years, most of the “to harm” service records were destroyed in a 1973 National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) fire. Congress’s 1974 Privacy Act censored experiment verifying witnesses from any surviving records!
After the 1987 STANLEY, Congress passed the 1988 Veterans’ Judicial Review Act (VJRA).[4] Established was the Legislative, Article I severely restricted, U.S. Court of Veterans Appeals. In 1994 its Chief Judge stated, “The Court simply identifies error made below by a failure to adhere, in individual cases, to the Constitution, statutes, and regulations which themselves reflect policy — policy freely ignored by many initial adjudicators whose attitude is, “I haven’t been told by my boss to change. If you don’t like it — appeal it.”[7] Congress dictated that, “The court may not review the schedule of ratings for disabilities or the policies underlying the schedule.”[4] Given to the Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) is the Judicial Branch’s final authority on “the policies underlying the schedule” questions of law![5]
Each “to harm” experiment completes a Research and Development (R&D) process. Prior R&D is reviewed. The resulting Scope of Work defines what each experiment is “designed” to accomplish. The how, where, when and who is identified. The conducted RESEARCHED cause and effects are closely followed and recorded. From the results are DEVELOPED safe production, use, victim treatment and protection. Accordingly, at the time known are the recorded and withheld “designed to harm” resultant “schedule” disabilities with their identifying symptoms and treatment. Ignored by the U.S. Congress is the service personnel rights lost vs. prison inmate kept!
Overlooked by many in Congress is our “Pledge of Allegiance” “with liberty and justice for all” and the U.S. Supreme Court’s ignored own, carved in stone over its entrance, “EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER LAW”!

Well, actually, those monkey soldiers had a choice in their heyday: they were either taken out by our army from the Republic of the South or our allies, or they choose to stay behind in Hanoi and ended up in a hotpot on the sidewalk eatery. Monkey brain is the most sought after food items in July everywhere in Hanoi whey they sent their kids to fight a place for studying at a university. Now U can see there is no coincidence at all when the Chinese propaganda machine brought up the “monkey subject”. The Chinese has known for a longtime it is an extremely dangerous month in Hanoi-July- for a monkey.
That is no secret at all… i think they, XINHUA News agency, are talking about those soldiers, so called Voluntary Army, sent by the Red China to help Hanoi during the Vietnam War. Most of them had not gone home and China even deny their existence….Well, finally, at least the Chinese acknowledges these monkey did actually exist… That is what they have a saying in Vietnam “Monkey war, monkey army”.
What? Are you serious?
FAKE !!! This is a disoinfo story ..
