McCain's huge POW discrepancy.........
rkioyOvS_y0
Senator McCain has successfully passed legislation to lock up the U.S. records on our prisoners of war and MIA's from the Vietnam War, thus seeming to preclude public access to the 32 propaganda tapes he made for the Vietnamese while a prisoner. Undoubtedly, Vietnam still has copies of those tapes. Since the Soviet Union was also participating in the interrogation of U.S. prisoners of war, it is highly likely that Russia now has possession of the USSR's files on U.S. prisoners of war in Vietnam. Reports from anti-McCain POW organizations suggest that McCain was also filmed receiving special treatment, including sexual accommodations provided to the always randy airman.
Such films, likely in the hands of two foreign governments, makes McCain a prime target for blackmail by those governments. Perhaps, given McCain's energetic efforts to open up trade with Vietnam, these tapes have already served that purpose. High officials in the Pentagon may also have access to these tapes, which could be used against McCain.
Whether or not McCain was truly tortured to force him to make these tapes, as long as they are kept secret they represent a potential blackmail tool, and thus a threat to the national security of the nation. Do we want a president who can so easily be blackmailed?
The only way to protect against blackmail is for all McCain's military records, and those of other POW's, to be disclosed and fully investigated by the public press.
Whether or not McCain is "at fault" for these films is besides the point, their mere hidden existence represents a serious danger to our national security if he becomes president of the United States.
