Jane Fonda’s Broadcasts on Radio Hanoi
Co-authors: Dr. Roger Canfield, R.J. Del Vecchio
From July 8 – 22, 1972, the American actress Jane Fonda visited North Vietnam at the invitation of the “Vietnamese Committee of Solidarity with the American People.” During this period, she recorded at least 19 propaganda interviews that were broadcast by Radio Hanoi. Twelve of the speeches focused on American servicemen as their primary target. Fonda’s key themes included: demands to halt U.S. bombing of North Vietnam, allegations that the Nixon Administration was “lying” about the war, endorsements of the Viet Cong “7 Point Peace Plan,” claims that the U.S. military was violating international law and committing “genocide” in Vietnam, and statements of confidence in North Vietnam’s continued resistance and ultimate victory over America.
Listed below are all available transcripts of Jane Fonda’s Hanoi broadcasts, as recorded by the CIA’s Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS). Slightly redacted versions of several broadcasts also appear in the Congressional Record for Sept. 19-25, 1972, “Hearings Regarding H.R. 16742: Restraints on Travel to Hostile Areas.” The transcripts are listed by the dates on which they were originally broadcast by Radio Hanoi.
July 10, 1972: Fonda to American POWs
“Brave heroes of the war would come back from Indochina and I was told that it is we who committed crimes, it is we who burned villages and massacred civilian people and raped the Vietnamese women. It is we who did it and we are sorry, and we want the American people to know what is being done in their names.”
July 13, 1972: Jane Fonda condemns U.S. bombings
“They seemed to be asking themselves what kind of people can Americans be who would drop these kinds of bombs so callously on their innocent heads, destroying their villages and endangering the lives of these millions of people.”
July 17, 1972: Fonda to American pilots and airmen
“I don’t know what your officers tell you, you are loading, those of you who load the bombs on the planes. But, one thing that you should know is that these weapons are illegal and thats not, thats not just rhetoric. They were outlawed, these kind of weapons, by several conventions of which the United States was a signatory — two Hague conventions. And the use of these bombs or the condoning the use of these bombs makes one a war criminal.”
“The men who are ordering you to use these weapons are war criminals according to international law, and in, in the past, in Germany and in Japan, men who were guilty of these kind of crimes were tried and executed.”
July 19, 1972: Fonda on visit to Nam Dihn
“I went to the dike, the dike system of the city of Nam Dinh. Just this morning at 4 o’clock, it was bombed again, and I was told that an hour after we left the city, planes came back and rebombed Nam Dinh. The dike in many places has been cut in half and there are huge fissures running across the top of it.”
July 20, 1972: Fonda on Geneva Accords anniversary
“There is an invasion taking place. It’s taking place from the 7th Fleet, from the aircraft carriers, from Thailand, from Guam, but essentially from the Pentagon and from the White House.”
“You men, it is not your fault. It is in fact tragic to think how you are being so cynically used because the time is coming very soon, it is already half-way there, when people are admitting openly that this is one of the most horrible crimes ever committed by one nation against another.”
July 20, 1972: Fonda press conference
“I’ve met with students, with peasants, with workers and with American pilots who are in extremely good health, I might add and will I hope be soon returned to the United States, and when they are returned, I think and they think that they will go back better citizens than when they left.”
July 20, 1972: Fonda press conference Q & A
“I would like to accuse Richard Nixon of betraying everything that is human and just in the world today. I would like to accuse him as being a new Hitler.”
“I will be working with all of those other people, ah, to that end - to end the war according to the demands made in the Seven-Point Peace proposal of the Provisional Revolutionary Government.”
July 21, 1972: Fonda to American pilots
“The people back home are crying for you. We are afraid of what, what must be happening to you as human beings. For it isn’t possible to destroy, to receive salary for pushing buttons and pulling levers that are dropping illegal bombs on innocent people, without having that damage your own souls.”
“I know that if you saw and if you knew the Vietnamese under peaceful conditions, you would hate the men who are sending you on bombing missions.”
July 22, 1972: Fonda to U.S. pilots and airmen
“Should you then allow these same people and same liars to define for you who your enemy is? Shouldn’t we then, shouldn’t we all examine the reasons that have been given to us to justify the murder that you are being paid to commit?”
“If they told you the truth, you wouldn’t fight, you wouldn’t kill. You were not born and brought up by your mothers to be killers. So you have been - you have been told lies so that it would be possible for you to kill.”
July 22, 1972: Fonda to U.S. pilots and airmen
“And I think, I - I think that - well, the other day, for example, someone told me that one of the pilots that was recent - recently shot down, uh, near Hanoi, as he was, uh, driven across the river, uh, uh, he was, he was, uh, being being rescued by, uh, the people and he was shown a bridge and the people said, uh, that bridge was, uh, bombed, uh, recently. And he said: Well, my parents are rich. Uh, we can buy you a new bridge, we can afford to build you a new bridge after the war. And the people said to him in Vietnamese and it was then translated by the interpreter, they said, but can your parents replace our, our children, our mothers, our wives who have been killed by your bombs? And the soldier hung his head and he said: I didn’t think of that.”
July 25, 1972: Fonda to U.S. pilots and airmen
“Every time you drop your bombs on the heads of these peasants it becomes clearer to them — to them who the enemy is. How could they possibly by asking for help from a country which is destroying their land, their crops, killing their people, mutilating their babies? How can we continue to rain this kind of terror on these people who want nothing more than to live in peace and freedom and independence?”
July 26, 1972: Fonda to South Vietnamese students
“We have understood that we have a common enemy - U.S. imperialism. We have understood that we have a common struggle and that your victory will be the victory of the American people and all peace-loving people around the world.”
“Recently in the United States we’ve been doing a lot of political propaganda work among the students and the soldiers with your Vietnamese comrades.”
July 28, 1972: Fonda to U.S. servicemen on bombing dikes
“There is only on way to stop Richard Nixon from committing mass genocide in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, and that is for a mass protest all around the world of all peace-loving people to expose his crimes, to prevent him from fooling the people of the world into thinking that if there are floods this year it would be a natural disaster.”
July 29, 1972: Fonda to South Vietnamese soldiers
“Many people in the United States deplore what is being done to you. We understand that Nixon’s aggression against Vietnam is a racist aggression, that the American war in Vietnam is a racist war, a white man’s war…”
“We deplore that you are being used as cannon fodder for U.S. imperialism. We’ve seen photographs of American bombs and antipersonnel weapons being dropped, wantonly, accidentally perhaps, on your heads, on the heads of your comrades.”
July 30, 1972: Fonda to American servicemen in South Vietnam
“They believed in the army, but when they were here, when they discovered that their officers were incompetent, usually drunk, when they discovered that the Vietnamese people had a fight that they believed in, that the Vietnamese people were fighting for much the same reason that we fought in the beginning of our own country, they began to ask themselves questions.”
“I heard horrifying stories about the treatment of women in the U.S. military. So many women said to me that one of the first things that happens to them when they enter the service is that they are taken to see the company psychiatrist and they are given a little lecture which is made very clear to them that they are there to service the men.”
August 7, 1972: Fonda on Quang Tri and Patrick Henry
“So that now, when the People’s Liberation Armed Forces arrived in Quang Tri and joined together with the peasants to liberate the province of Quang Tri, the people have risen up, in the words of a journalist who just came from - from Quang Tri - like birds who have been freed from their cages.”
“We should be able to understand this very well as Americans. One of our revolutionary slogans, called out by Patrick Henry, was ‘Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death.’ And this is not so different than Ho Chi Minh’s slogan ‘Nothing is more precious than freedom and independence.’”
August 9, 1972: Fonda on “Democracy”
“Like tens of thousands of other Americans, I’m extremely concerned these days about the betrayal of everything that my country stands for - about the betrayal of our flag, about the betrayal of the very precepts upon which our country was founded: equality for all people, liberty, and freedom.”
“Richard Nixon, history will one day report you as the new Hitler… It is no wonder that you are so cynically manipulating the American public into believing that you are striving for peace, when you are in fact committing the most heinous crimes against the innocent civilians of Vietnam.”
August 15, 1972: Fonda on meeting with American POWs
“I had the opportunity of meeting seven U.S. pilots. Some of them were shot down as long ago as 1968 and some of them had been shot down very recently. They are all in good health. We had a very long talk, a very open and casual talk. We exchanged ideas freely. They asked me to bring back to the American people their sense of disgust of the war and their shame for what they have been asked to do.”
“They asked me to bring messages back home to their loved ones and friends, telling them to please be as actively involved in the peace movement as possible, to renew their efforts to end the war.”
Jane Fonda will forever be a traitor to many of us who served our country. Some say we should forgive and forget, that Fonda has apologized for her behavior.
Here is a statement from a fellow vet:
For what it is worth, Ms. Fonda has never spoken the kind of direct apology for her activities during the war, the statement that she made a huge mistake in allowing her picture to be taken at the AA gun is not exactly what most vets would accept as a heartfelt apology. She has always been consistent in belief that she was doing the right thing in all she did there. Below are transcripts of the things she broadcast to US servicemen from Hanoi. They qualify in the minds of most of us as treason.
Keep in mind that when the POWs returned and spoke of their being tortured, she made these comments very publicly.
Jane Fonda said, POWs “implied they were forced into seeing [antiwar visitors] that’s laughable. They are hypocrites and liars ….” At UCLA, “We have no reason to believe [they] tell the truth. They are professional killers.” She wrote the Los Angeles Times, “It is a lie, an orchestrated lie… that the policy was torture.”
“Jane Fonda Claims POWs Not Tortured,” Pasadena Star News, April 1, 1973; Also: San Francisco Chronicle, April 1, 1973, 4.
So, it’s very difficult for those of us who know this, and in my case, know POWs and heard in person their accounts of torture, to just write it off as in the past and not worth thinking about anymore.
Jane does not deserve, and has not earned, our forgiveness.

She also didn’t care about Vietnam Veterans against the War either.
At her GI Road show kick off at Ft Lewis, Jane Fonda’s underlings refused to allow the VVAW leadership to speak at a press conference because the celebrities there were hogging the media attention.
Musician ( And Navy vet.), Country Joe MacDonald subsequently gave Jane Fonda a major league tongue lashing and walked out of the tour, taking with him a lifelong resentment of her.

She grew up rich, wild, undisciplined and educated in the bowels of liberalism. Living on the wild side was her way of getting attention. As an adult she continues to go out of her way to be controversial. Her causes are not important to her, it’s the attention she gets that is important.
Here’s a quote from an on-line bio of Fonda:
“To many she seemed mercurial, contradictory, and driven as the fighter for justice and peace. To others, she was naive, irritating, and an anti-American fool. Her causes were so numerous and undiscriminating that Saul Alinsky, fellow American radical, claimed that Fonda was “a hitchhiker on the highway of causes.” (https://biography.yourdictionary.com/jane-fonda)
Alinsky was the author of the book, “Rules for Radicals” which was the guiding document for the likes of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Abby Hoffman, and others.

I think she should have been hung for treason years shoo! Her atrocities were endless and she directly caused brutality, suffering and death among the POW’s!!! Just an FYI … Lyndon Baines Johnson fostered that war. It was his baby and he micromanaged it to a fault! When he ran out of money to continue the war he went after Social Security! He changed the laws that protected Soc Sec! He allowed the government to take unlimited amounts of money from SocSec! That is why Soc Sec is failing now! Our politicians have continued to rob Soc Sec blind! It’s why the elderly don’t receive enough to even come close to surviving! Johnson robbed for his war until his terms were finally over. Nixon hired Henry Kissinger who was able to end the war. Nixon ended that war!

“Faith based” my ass! In 2013 at the 57th Annual Tail Hook Convention in Reno, NV, in honoring those of use who are veterans of the Vietnam War, a presentation at this convention was devoted to “Recognizing the Return of the POWs from Vietnam.” As a US Army Vietnam Veteran (Sr. Combat Field Medic), I was honored to be invited to the convention, and I attended that presentation. Four former Vietnam Navy Officers (one Commander and three Navy Captains formed the panel of discussion on the subject of life in the Hanoi Hilton (Hoa Loa Prison). When the conversation came to the subject of “Hanoi Jane” (Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden) they concurred that, “What we would say are things too distasteful, and therefor we would rather keep our discussions here limited to our captors, treatment, and ultimate release.” It was obvious, that these gentlemen still harbor major negative feelings as to their harsh treatment received after Hanoi Jane and her then suitor at that time, Hayden left. They did describe vividly, several types and responses of the severe, and in some cases deadly activities of torture that were used to both punish and obtain confessions. It was horrid as described, and not one liberal American war protester should have ever been there colluding with the enemy. Jane Fonda is in every description of the law an American Traitor to this Nation! Read what a traitor is and consists of, if there is any doubt of mind. In no way or manner, should she or any of her crew ever have gotten away from being severely punished for their actions… even 50-years later. Sickening! In no way is there any mistake here… she is in no way an angel or deserving of sainthood!!! Did her actions and that of her crew cause an extension of the war furthering the misery of Vietnam, and its eventual defeat? Yes! Why? Factually, because it instigated greater protesting in the United States of following through with our military redeployment within the Paris Peace Accord should the Viet Cong and NVA continue to invade once American troops were withdrawn in 1973. That of course happened, and the rest is history. We did not lose that war, we could partially conclude that perhaps Hanoi Jane helped lose it for South Vietnamese military forces by forcing our government to take a “hands off” approach in reneging on their Peace Accord commitment.

Jane Fonda isn’t the sharpest tack in the box. She grew up in a family full of communists. She is the typical shallow brained Hollywood libtard whore who’s presence is for sale – she lives and acts according to whoever pays her and gives her a script. Yes, she is a traitor but in the end she did very little real damage and the only people that paid any attention to her was the MSM.
The real bastard that should hung for treason is John Kerry. He knew exactly what he was doing when he lied time and again about the conduct of the American soldier in Vietnam and worked with North Vietnam during the peace talks to under mind the efforts of the American negotiators. He did far more harm than Fonda.

There is no one as blind as a person who does not want to see.

She undoubtedly believed what she spoke out about was the correct viewpoint but she didn’t care enough to seek the truth that was much more complicated than her sophomoric criticism. I will not waste my time hating her. Instead, I sadly regret she not only helped prolong the war, she also enabled the death of the same people she thought she was helping.

God Bless American Soldiers. I’m a survivor from bloody hands of Democrats Communism ViệtNam. I’ll never forget American Soldiers who died to save me from Communists VN and I’ll always keep them closest to my heart. Actually Democrats communism VN themselves have filled everyday entire nation life with fear, violence, murder, executions, sickness, horrible suffering and the stench of death and starvation. The world has described Democrats communism VN scammer, corrupt, greedy, fabricated, human trafficking and blood trhirsty.
Honestly, communists of North VN stated repeatedly that The U.S has invaded their country and therefore they had the right to fight back, but actually North VN had invaded South VN and with the supplies and supported of China and Russia, plus the supports of farmers in South VN, communists have had places to hide and shelters… Isn’t it ironical, communists who were wearing only black boxer-briefs or black pajamas go to occupy Saigon, but they called “it’s the national liberation movement”… South VN government has asked American for help. But unfortunately, most 50% American Soldiers were killed in seemingly sly-ways of farmers in South VN… Communists have executd hundreds of thousands of Catholics and continued to kill them after the U.S troops had pulled out of Vietnam for good in March 1973… Since 1975 communists Vietnam has ruled over Saigon, communists VN have killed hundreds of thousands military men of South VN or send them to re-educate camp for heavy labor and send hundreds of thousands other non-communist young men to Russia for labor to pay the debts communist has borrowed of Russia during the war, and communists have used this power to confiscate property, homes and even the heritages of Saigon VN, discarding its people into the jungle and Cambodia to reclaiming wasteland in low mountain area, and communists Vietnam have also invaded Cambodia 1979… Furthermore, they’ve slaughtered hundreds of thousands republicans of South VN at sea who have attempted to escape from this ruthless regime… But from 1978, when the U.S have declared no more abrogated embargo for Vietnam and allow Vietnamese in the U.S send mail and presents back home for their family, communists have builded many big boats to transfers their own citizens from Vietnam to Thailand and Hong Kong to collected 10 to 15 ounces of gold for each person, fews people paid less, many communist farmers and fishermen went free (who spied and lived in South VN during war-time and carry out underground activities in enemy-occupied zones and farmers). Communists VN have also connect between U.S and Vietnam that you can give them some pictures and address of anyone in your family that you wanna he/she getting out of Vietnam, so they come to Vietnam and bring to Hong Kong or Thailand, then they take some pictures and a notice of your loves ones to give to you as the evident to collect $5.000 dollars in cash that communists VN are the chief-leaders. After 1995 all refugee camps in Asia have closed to STOP economy immigrations movement of communists VN, so communists VN must ended the human trafficking. Communists Vietnam have also used kids to collect money and food from the U.S and Western Europe as Vietnam hunger children fund and Vietnam children projects fund, which aids fund it’s from America and Western Europe were sent to Vietnam to help the poor children. All communism Vietnam has done is they’ve helped are themselves and their families to have and to live the good life on the money of Americans and Western Europe people… NewYork Time Magazine, People Magazine, Australia News Reporters, England News Reporters and Europe News Reporters have declared “Vietnam is a peacefully country in the world” and “People of Vietnam are the happiest people in the world”. That’s the reason President Trump and First Lady Melania have never told about human right when they were in Vietnam. But communists Vietnam have always blamed American for war, so they could receive more money funds and aids from American, and even after few decades, they still want to digging more money from American and communists Vietnam in U.S have declared “The Vietnam war, we have not only gained Saigon. But we have also gained California”… Famous Vietnamese comedy Bảo Liêm in U.S has sang “This rain season has more water than last season, last rain season had less water than this time” Please boycott everything “Made in Vietnam” and “Never Trust Communists Vietnam”. The fresh and warm blood of American Soldier have nurtured communists VN look beautiful as the world seeing them today. Thank you for sharing my message.

It is fine because we do have freedom of speech and opinions are like ass holes which I feel she is one.

So in my opinion she can go screw herself, saying things like that about people that were doing a hard, terrible and and unwanted job. I used to like her before she opened her unknowing mouth.

Jane was wrong to say the things she said. Jane admitted she was wrong. She grew up. What purpose does it serve to harbor such hatred for so long? Let it go. You will feel much better if you practice fiorgivenessnand let the past be the past.

She did all that, it is recorded in print and film. Are you saying a hundred or so people made it all up? We need to hire those people to keep secrets because they is damn good at it.
If we had fought the war like we did before, battle, take ground AND KEEP IT instead of pulling out and having to fight all over again for it we might have actually stopped the North from sending troops and supplies south to the VC. Then the South could fight the VC on their own. That is how we should have dont that.

“Now that you’ve read the transcripts of her broadcasts, do you have a better understanding of our why Vietnam Vets hate her?”
Yes I do. The people who hate her are irrational. Brainwashed.
Nixon, LBJ, MacNamara, Kissinger are the people who deceived you and exploited you and caused the deaths of your friends. Fonda is one of the ones who tried to rescue you from them. And you choose to turn your anger on her rather than on them.
Read “A Bright, Shining Lie”. Read “Fire in the Lake”. 50 years have passed since you were impressionable young boys, stuck in the propaganda machine that is the US military.

So you feel that what she said that was incorrect or untrue? Based on what?
It’s understandable that a young kid who’s been mislead by professional propagandists would follow orders and scapegoat the anti-war movement instead of blaming the people who actually committed the crimes, but it’s tragic that half a century later the guy hasn’t wised up at all.

Roger, my guess is you have never served in uniform. If you did you would realize that Nixon, LBJ, MacNamara, and Kissinger were elected officials of OUR government and directly in our chain of command. While I, and many of my brothers, might not have agreed with their politics, we respected their authority and did our duty (can you say the same). Jane Fonda turned on us. She didn’t have anyone’s authority or direction to do what she did other than that of the North Vietnamese.
Wake up and thank a veteran, not her – you asshole idiot.

Her conduct increased the torture the POWs had to suffer through. The N Vietnam government used her comments and the radical support she received as an indicator of how much support she had versus support for the government.
Thinking she was the spokesman against the government gave N Vietnam the incentive to continue fighting.

As veterans we took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States, and that Constitution grants the right to free speech. If Jane Fonda had stayed on U.S. soil and spoke out against the war she would have simply been one more protester. But she didn’t. Instead she traveled to the land of our enemy and parroted the words given to her by that enemy. For that, I can never forgive her and agree with all my fellow Vietnam vets that she deserves to burn in hell for what she did. At the very least, she should be tried for treason and exported out of the country. Maybe Hanoi will take her.

Transcript time line is informative and of course, full of propagandist B.S. straight from the harlot’s mouth. This is significant since many of the major units had stood down by Jul 1972. 1st Cavalry had already returned to Ft. Hood. which left a vacuum and ripe for NVA takeover. Evidently, North Vietnam did have an ally in her and the anti-war minions. Wonder where all those cowards are today? As far as Jane, forgiveness is GOD’s realm not ours.

I’m may be, wrong, However, I think she was helped by 1 or more people. No one person could get all the broadcast attention. With out help from any 1 person or, a GROUP of, people. She was probably asked then primed / prepped for all the action she advertised or made public. An ordinary citizen could in no way, get all the attention that, she got. If anyone agrees, fine. If anyone disagrees that’s fine, also.
