LENNON SAID "GIVE PEACE A CHANCE," WE "IMAGINED" POL POTJuly 15, 2004 29 out of 61 found this review helpful
Around 1970, John Lennon, who if he lived in Vietnam would have been head of the Hanoi Communist Central Committee and if he lived in Kabul would not have lived, said "Give peace a chance." After Watergate, the "loyal opposition" led by Ted Kennedy refused to fund our "former allies" in South Vietnam. After that we "imagined" the North Vietnamese invasion and Pol Pot's "killing fields" in Camboda. All told, when we followed Lennon's advice about 2 million human beings were murdered. That's Communism.
