Speech #900277673

I have a news report from Saigon which explicitly details the role of the Vietcong in blasting a village. killing 88 persons. Mr. President. 73 of them were civilians. Another 103 refugees were wounded. and a U.S. spokesman is quoted as saying this village raid may be "one of the worst atrocities of the war." all because the village supplied recruits to the South Vietnamese. I have looked in vain to find the public outcry from the editorial pages of our "concerned" national press because of these atrocities. We have seen pictures of bodies spilling out into the South China Sea near Hong Kong.
