What can Jane Fonda teach 2014 UCLA Commencement Grads: How to sell out your country and its soldiers to a communist enemy?
It is with great sadness that I note that one of the world’s premier educational institutions, the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) has invited a traitor to speak to its graduates, albeit the lefties in the School of Theater, Film, and Television on a suitable day to note this tremendous insult to America and American -- Friday the13th.

Let us not forget those who sold out America and American troops to the communist enemy … <source>
Jane Fonda is at the top of my list as an unindicted traitor: a person who, in time of war, gave aid and comfort to our enemies. A person who mockingly sat on an anti-aircraft gun in Viet Nam while downed pilot John McCain was being tortured in a nearby prison. It is hard for me to write anything about Jane Fonda without using the words “traitorous bitch.”
The most prominent example of a clash between private citizen protest and governmental military policy in recent history occurred in July 1972, when actress Jane Fonda arrived in Hanoi, North Vietnam, and began a two-week tour of the country conducted by uniformed military hosts.
Aside from visiting villages, hospitals, schools, and factories, Fonda also posed for pictures in which she was shown applauding North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gunners, was photographed peering into the sights of an NVA anti-aircraft artillery launcher, and made ten propagandistic Tokyo Rose-like radio broadcasts in which she denounced American political and military leaders as "war criminals." She also spoke with eight American POWs at a carefully arranged "press conference," POWs who had been tortured by their North Vietnamese captors to force them to meet with Fonda, deny they had been tortured, and decry the American war effort.
Fonda apparently didn't notice (or care) that the POWs were delivering their lines under duress or find it unusual the she was not allowed to visit the prisoner-of-war camp (commonly known as the "Hanoi Hilton") itself.
She merely went home and told the world that "[the POWs] assured me they were in good health. When I asked them if they were brainwashed, they all laughed. Without exception, they expressed shame at what they had done."
She did, however, charge that North Vietnamese POWs were systematically tortured in American prison-of-war camps. <Source>
Bottom line …
I do not forgive or forget any traitor that actively engaged in enemy propaganda efforts to encourage American soldiers to surrender to our enemies – where they were treated like animals. UCLA is a tax-payer supported school and she should not be honored when California soldiers are still missing in action and others are resting uneasily in their graves.
