The deal was made between Nixon and the N. Vietnamese president to release the prisoners in exchange for 4.75 billion dollars. We (the US) agreed to pay the money. N Vietnam released half the prisoners upon receipt of the letter. The money was never paid. The remaining prisoners have never been released.
Right im not saying that this is bullshit but why wouldnt the Vietnam government not just exicute these men as they would be an international face palm moment. Bloody shamefull war in the first place and if they left men behind its even worse.
F#ck Imus....only giving these guys 9 mins. Sorry guys, but we got about 4 mins. What a joke. THESE BRAVE MEN HAVE GIVEN 40-45 YEARS AND THIS IS THE THANKS THEY GET. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE MEDIA ISN'T RUNNING LIKE WILDFIRE WITH THIS. I know this information has been known since the 70's, but this has to be bigger than Watergate could ever be. OUR COUNTRY PUT THEM THERE, WE SHOULD GET THEM OUT. I F'ING HATE POLITICIANS.
I wish we can bring these men home, but vbasicly for what reason has our gov. Been brushing off this case, is it to avoid another war with Vietnam, also isn't Laos our ally, why can't they give us our men back
fuckign disgusting how can your goverment do that to good soldiers who were willing to put their courage and lives on the line for their country only for their country to throw them in the fucking trash
america ababndoned thousands after the vietnam war, think twice before joining the american military, they will leave you behind, just ask all the thousands of pow/mias after the korean, vietnam, and ww2.
seeing various satellite images appear during the 80's makes me shudder. Knowing these guys have been put into camps for decades with no help in sight. Out of the 4000 reports, Mccain or Kerry are trying to convince everyone not 1 of them could be legit. Rest in peace GI's.
I've been reading this book among my knowledge of the Vietnam war and it really steams me to know that POWs aren't worth the bailout AIG/ Government Motors, etc. get these days. If there is a way to contribute, even if it's to get one senior citizen POW home, I'll contribute.
The sad truth about this story is that it's totally believable. They sent these poor guys over there to get slaughtered for control of the Gulf of Tonkin. In the name of trade for corporate profit! NOT FREEDOM!
Now our troops get slaughtered over the price and control of oil, while corporate america gets rich! If America was so concerned about terrorism... THAN WHY ARE OUR BORDERS STILL WIDE OPEN ALMOST 10 YEARS AFTER 911!!!! LIES LIES LIES!!!

i know the guy who is doing this show just to tell you. btw if you get them out come on its bin 40 years going in at lets say 1967 geting out in 2010 or 2008 wtf how could they do that ?
This is a terrible crime....and again, our "Leaders" are complicit in the cover-up, just like the financial cover-up that has occurred. PEOPLE WAKE-UP!!!!!!
you think obama will do something? yeah right. every president since nixon has ignored this entire issue. I have sent numerous letters to my congressmen to address this issue. i have never even gotten a courtesy response. obama will be no different.
ok i wrote my comment seven months ago.. i guess i was wrong. and those poor guys are just old news, its not right and something should be done but politicians are all the bloody same..
I am a Vietnam Vet and disgusted by what McCain & Kerry did to abandon the POWs. Terry Minarcin and Jerry Mooney gave the Senate Select Committee the intel from the NSA which proved that there were abandoned men in prison camps in Laos and other locations. The Liberals stopped the payment of the $4.5 Billion after Nixon and Watergate transpired.
