In 2005 and 2007 Thich Nhat Hanh returned to Vietnam to help the communist regime to improve its bad image for religious oppression. In return, the communists promised to allow him to practice religion in Vietnam and establish Bat Nha monastery. But in September 2009, Vietnamese authorities launched a violent crackdown on his followers at the monastery, fearing his popularity among the youth could pose a threat to the communist leadership.

Thich nhat Hanh is just a propaganda tool for the communist regime in Vietnam. A leader of anti-war movement in Vietnam war, he turned a blind eye to Hue massacre of 5,000 civilians by Vietcong in 1968 and Vietnam invasion and occupation of Cambodia in 1978. In 2005 and 2007, he returned to Vietnam to help the communist regime to improve its bad image for human rights violations and religious oppression so that Vietnam could gain permanent normal trade status with the US and enter WTO.

This holy life is lived for the sake of restraint & abandoning." (Itivuttaka)(Duk. I,8) (It. 28)
We had our camera crew there, she offered to do the on camera intro with a quick voice-over. I believe she has her own production company in LA. She was awesome, she did the intro in one take.
imagine if all the people in the world could walk together at the same time with one another

Nice video.
She used to report for one of the independent channels in Los Angeles. Is she now working in San Diego or doing freelance in LA?
