On Google Books you have read
some of my ideas presented in the
booklet entitled Oh! Viet Nam, My country (the English
Version), and now with some more thoughts incorporated with some excerpts taken
from the abovesaid booklet I am going to make up another one with a new title Viet
Nam of Tomorrow , Shall It Share The Destiny of Champa?
of which the Vietnamese version has been posted on Google Books some time ago.
Now, the English version will be coming up for readers of little understanding
of the Vietnamese language to know something about Viet Nam, my country, then
and now, and, in a near future, certainly…
In this new booklet I am jotting down my thoughts I have had about my
country then, now and to morrow by relating Viet Nam to some news and facts I
have heard with my ears and witnessed with my own eyes from Viet Nam in-land
and from everywhere in the world... Whenever my thoughts coming up I jotted
them down …and to begin, here are some ideas about Cosmos I have
read from the Theological Studies
written by the great Evangelist J.D. Olsen.
@ The World is from the
Greek word Kosmos, litterally means order of this world. Jesus teaches that
Satan is the Prince of this world. How does Satan have this kind of authority?
We cannot have a correct answer. Nevertheless, if a study is performed carefully
concerning the leading principles in the realms of commerce, politics, social
and international affairs, who dare deny
Satan’s manipulative role in our Universe? We often see competition and fraud
in commercial domain, dictatorship and oppression in political realm, poverty
and ignorance in social area, and envy and war in international field. From
where come all those matters, if not from Satan’s manipulation? Truly, he is
the Prince of power in this dark world.
@ I am
only an ordinary man being released by God the Most High from the Communist
imprisonment, like a brand plucked from the fire (Xechariah
3:2NASB). As a refugee of the Communists
I left the land of my forefathers, now I am living in exile overseas. I am
tormenting for Satan has many times sifted my country, he has unsparingly and
tirelessly caused dramatic scenes and terrible tragedies to our beloved nation
from generations to generations.
I am writing just for remembrance and for
reminding my friends …
The present Vietnamese Authorities are
only Satan’s faithful servants, this
Demon has directed and permitted the VN Communists to deprive a man
of justice in the presence
of the Most High (Lamentations 3:35 NASB). They think that they are as right as a
trivet, they will fling the truth to the ground (Daniel 8:12).They pant after the very dust
of the earth on the heads of the helpless (Amos 2:7 NASB). They are guests
of a robber-hosted copious banquet, they drink a delirious booze, then they
will be boozed soon and they will vomit what they have swallowed, they will
fall down and shall sleep a thousand year sleep.
I am a guy denuded of all critical ability,
uncouth in political analysis, vulgar in economy and militarism. I am not a
researcher of matters in the World so as to present any observations or ideas.
I am not a supporter nor an advocate of
the movement of living together with the Communists for knowing the absurdity
of the problem. No compromising acts may
exist among the Communists and they never show mercy or pardon to anyone even
the dead in the graves.
Do not be sad with this saying, the past
of our Vietnam
PART ONE
I. HO CHI
MINH
I still remember my father’s
words, saying: HO CHI MINH was the first who introduced the Communism to Vietnam Vietnam
On September 2, 1945 he read the
Declaration of Independence of the
Republic Democratic of Viet Nam.
Knowing that the people hated the
Communist regime and might come incommensurable consequences, Ho Chi Minh was
making a lying promise, he solemnly declared in front of the people that he
would dismiss the Communist Party of Indochina on November 11, 1945.
Thereafter, a lot of people were dead because of that lying and deceiving
promise.
On March 6, 1946 Ho and the French
signed an Agreement and used the French to exterminate and slay mercilessly all
the patriots.
On December 19, 1953 Ho signed the Land
Reform Law from which was proceeded a brutal campaign of accusation that
hundreds of thousands innocent people were accused of being landlords and
slain, hundreds of thousands others were isolated, spied on and withered away
and died on their native soil.
The dead in battle are less miserable
than the dead of starvation. Tightening the purse strings was the governing
policy of the VN Communists. The Vietnamese people had been victims of that
governing policy for long. It’s truly a cruel and barbaric ruling pattern!
After their victory at the battle of Đien
Bien Phu, the deceptive Viet Minh was
unveiled, the league should change its face and took another name. On July 20,
1954 Ho Chi Minh and the French signed the Geneva Accords dividing Viet nam North Viet Nam
Nowadays, the Communists are still tracking
the footsteps of their masters, they are struggling and killing one another for
envy and greed. Actually, they discount all the sentiment of comradery they had
when living side by side in the bloody and without issue war of the previous
days. They didn’t care about their fellowmen’s miserable life. Oh, such is “Old
Ho”, who once was called godfather of the nation! It’s he who imposed the
amoral and degenerate Communism upon the heads of the docile and indulgent
Vietnamese; It’s also Ho who made his people live in pain, misery and in
disgrace in too many decades. How ironic and ridiculous the “to impoverish the
people” doctrine is!
Ho Chi Minh was a rogue who didn’t mind
about the love for the family, the nation and for the Heavenly Father. He used
his demagoguery and the mask of
“national liberation” to seduce myriads of naïve people, from intellects to
vulgar people. He introduced the degenerate doctrine that lagged behind many
generations of the nation, he deprived the people of human rights but his mouth
always speaks loudly this slogan nothing is more precious than independence
and liberty. Betraying his own words
he used several intrigues to destroy freedom, with all his evil intentions he
impeded the way to God of His believers. His talent in persecuting, beating and
bashing, annihilating people was impeccable.
His victims were his friends, colleagues and foes alike. His wishes were
to redden in blood the Vietnamese nation with hostility under Satan’s direction.
When
Ho Chi Minh passed away, his funeral was majestic and crowdy, there were
present all kinds of people, friends and enemies, aborigines and foreigners,
with free will or no. Soldiers guarded his tomb day and night. Does it seem
strange to you? A cruel and relentless
guy, an evil hero in fraud and murder, in sowing terror, in killing like Ho,
but the Communists praised and worshiped like an idol. It is not unusual, is
it? The truth is totally hidden! How painful it is!
Ba Đinh, the award Satan confered to his
faithul servant Ho, and currently Ho is laying immobile there, is an eloquent
vestige showing that Satan blinded Ho and made him insensitive to human emotion
and feeling so that he brought the evil Communism to Viet Nam and caused never-ending
enmity and struggle between the North and South of Viet Nam.
Ho Chi Minh was only one of Satan’s
servants, Ho had to carry out his Master’s plan with no wrongdoing allowed, and
had Satan’s favor, but presently, Ho is only an inactive entity that remains
motionless at Ba Đinh square and become an amazingly attractive object that
caused the curiosity of many people in and out-country of Viet Nam. People have
the opportunity to visit and contemplate a truly ugly beast that ever spread
terror over the Viet Nam
nation and implanted all kinds of sins and iniquities in the hearts of the
people of Viet Nam
A hatred heart is blinded before error
and wrong, instead, hatred brings forth strife, strife produces war, war leads
to ruin and devastation, then only seen are disorder and wicked practices, how
can love and mercy be exposed? When
hatred invades human heart how can people see God’s grace and mercy ?
Furthermore, after the Geneva Agreement
was signed, many people withrew into the jungle to launch the war of
Resistance, many others followed the Viet Minh to regroup into the North Viet
Nam, they all were hooked and could not be released. They never knew that they
were putting their heads into the running noose that the Communists had set
beforehand. Realizing that Ho Chi Minh
ensnared them, they couldn’t help but endured and made themselves slaves of the
Communists. Those who stayed in the South continued to be against the Republic of Viet Nam North Viet Nam
Until April 30, 1975 their eyes were
wide open, they could see the reality but it was too late!
2. THE
NATIONAL FRONT FOR THE LIBERATION OF SOUTH VIETNAM
To make an echo in the world the National Front for the Liberation of
South Viet Nam, a disguise organization and the puppet of the Communists of
North Viet Nam was founded at Chau Thanh (Tay Ninh) on December 20, 1960. The South Vietnam
The Front was
the tail of the North Communists. Its specialties were using cunning, deceitful
plots, bribery and subornation. They put their men in the RVN government, in
the RVNAF, in the religions, in the Schools and college campuses and in the
mass of the South Viet Nam
The peasants were subject to threats and deception. They were compelled to
supply food and to dig the trenches to protect and to conceal the VC cadres in
order to live a calm life. How many people were forced to work for the Viet
Cong and to live a miserable and unfortunate life. The VC constantly disturbed
and divided people. They created discord
between the Buddhists and Catholics leading to a conflict between them (1963).
Taking advantage of that occasion the Viet Cong induced the students to perform
uprising, demonstrations in order to make the society more chaotic. The
government of the Republic
of Viet Nam South Vietnam
After April 30, 1975 the North
Communists dismissed the National Front for Liberation of the South. The Front
failed to keep its entity and lost its influence forever; the “victorious” National Front’s flag went into the Communist
dump
quicker than
one could imagine! The Front was like rice husk and gone with the wind. How
many people were beating their breast and harboring hatred in the heart!
3.THE NATIONAL
FLAG, THE COMMUNIST FLAG
In 1945 (At Dau year) the North Viet Nam
The parallel
lines never meet!”
Asking about the Viet Minh flag, my
father explained me: Ho Chi Minh followed the Communism, of course he
affliliated himself with the International Communist Party. The red and yellow
star flag is the child flag, begotten from the father flag which is the USSR
4. ĐIEN BIEN
PHU
Hearing a friend of mine confide in me:
“Owing to the Viet Minh winning over the French in the battle of Đien Bien Phu
our people have no longer been submissive to the Colonialism domination,
otherwise, might be today…” I smiled. I took the Bible and read him a verse: the
whole world lies in the power of the
evil one (1 John 5:19 NASB) and another one: Is it not from the mouth of
the Most High that both good and ill go forth? (Lam. 3:38 NASB). He
understood that I didn’t tell my own idea, he skipped and smiled.
Because of the Chinese overpopulation,
they often applied the human wave attack in war by using
the soldiers as stoppers to shut the loopholes. Vo Nguyen Giáp had a Chinese
General named Wei Gouqing as his master and military advisor. As did their masters, the Viet Cong’s war
tactics was bombarding first, assault after. The Viet Minh overflowed and
assaulted Dien Bien Phu after intensive bombardings over the heads of their
enemies. It is worth to say that both sides were engaging in severe combat but
unexpectedly the French soldiers had to put down their arms, nobody knew where
the commands came from. The French was defeated, the dream of establishing a
Colonialist government was melting like wax touching fire. The French left, the
American came and helped the South Viet Nam re-organise the nation just as they
helped Israel rebuild the nation in 1948, and …Taiwan in 1949.
Satan got in the way of the French by
using Dien Bien Phu as a first testing place to deprive the French of their
influences in Indochina; he re-installed a new deployment of the Armies and
made use of the Geneva Conventions to divide Viet Nam into two, officially and
legitimately. The North Viet Nam was awarded to Ho Chi Minh, a capable servant
of his, who had full of experiences, skill in ruse and ploy, competence in
creating separation and mutual antipathy. Ho met Satan’s purposes – wanting
people to deny God – and requirements for war and competition.
5. TAIWAN
At the end of the 19th
Century with their enhancing powers the Japan invaded and ruled Taiwan about a
half of Century. The Japan surrendered the Allied Powers in August 1945. Mao Tse Tung possessed the China Mainland and
became the leader of the Chinese Communist Party. Mao was dreaming of taking up
Taiwan, a small island lying next to the Mainland.
Defeated by Mao, Chiang Kai Shek ran into
Taiwan and with the support of the U.S. he founded the Republic of China in
1949.
Everyday Kinmen and Matsu Islands
received volleys of cannonballs coming from the Mainland. Mao’s dream of
capturing Taiwan never was realized, just because Chiang Kai Shek’s wife was a
Christian, a child of God, and the daughter of an evangelist, used to be a
student from the United States. They all were children of the Heavenly Father,
how might Satan be against them as God’s children? The Bible says: he who was born of God keeps him, and the evil
one does not teach him (1John 5:18 NASB).
I think you can know the reasons why our
nation is still living in inhuman treatment and in abject poverty under the
Communist yoke; just because our hearts were the permanent shelter of aversion
and hatred and our people don’t bear to know that the Heavenly Father from
above had been looking down upon us.
As the human hearts cannot bear to let
evil go (Job 20:13 NASB) hatred still abounds, there is no room for mercy
but envy. Men’s heart always harbors hatred, contention and strife, strife
is like letting out water (Prov. 17:14 NASB), how can we see a peaceful
scene in our country so that we could live?
6. ISRAEL
Israel is like limbs that are dry
and broken off and women come and make fires with them. For they are not people
of discernment, therefore their Maker will
not have compassion on them. And
their Creator will not be gracious to them. And it will come about in that
day,that the Lord will start His
threshing from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt;
and you will be gathered up one
by one, O sons of Israel (Isaiah 27:11-12 NASB).
Israelites behaved in accordance with the
customs and habits taken from the gentiles and non-Jewish nations, they denied
the Heavenly Father, worshiped idols and bowed down to inanimate objects. They violated God’s commandment: You shall
not make for yourself an idol,or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in
the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them; for I,
the Lord your God, am a jealous God (Exodus 20:4-5 NASB).
For that reason, Israel was divided into
two kingdoms, Israel (North) and Judah (South), that were successively
delivered to the Assyrian, Babylonian and Roman Empire for having a lesson of
obedience.
@ The Assyrian Empire (900-607 BC) captured
Israel in 721 BC and obliged Judah to pay tribute.
@ The Babylonian Empire (606-536 BC)
sieged and destroyed Jerusalem in 606 BC, in 597 BC and in 586 BC, its total
destruction and desolation.
@ The Medo-Persian Empire (536-330 BC):
The Jewish captives were allowed to return to
Jerusalem and to rebuild the Temple.
@ The Roman Empire (146 BC- 476 AD)
Israel suffered a deadly blow in 70 AD, the nation went to ruin and desolation.
After more than eighteen centuries of wandering around the world Israelites
returned to their native soil, and with the assistance of the US they rebuilt
the nation in May 14, 1948.
Is Israel the stronghold to guard the
oil pouch of the Middle East?
Why do the US have to help Israel exist
will all their willingness and efforts?
By contrast, they let the RVN collapse on April 30, 1975, the nation
that they once considered as an outpost against the Communism ?!!!
After many decades of living and
rebuilding the nation, Israel was attacked by the Arab bloc (Egypt, Syria,
Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq) simultaneously and vehemently, the US responded at once
by establishing an airlift for assistance and made the Arab block relinquish.
Readers, would you like to know the
reasons why the US have the obligation to help Israel? Here are some taken from
the Bible:
@ Israel, whom I have chosen (Isaiah
44:1 NASB)
@ Behold, they shall come from afar; and
lo, they will come from the North, and
from the West, and from the land
of Sinim (Isaiah 49:12 NASB).
@ If anyone fiercely assails you it
will not be from Me; whoever assails you will fall because of you (Isaiah 54:15NASB)
@ Israel was holy to the Lord, the
first fruits of His harvest; all who ate of it became guilty,
evil came upon them, declares the Lord (Jeremiah
2:3 NASB)
@ For the nation and kingdom which
will not serve you will perish; and the nations will be utterly ruined (Isaiah
60:12NASB)
@ It shall not be plucked up, or
overthrowm anymore forever (Jeremiah 31:40 NASB)
Thus, you
may know the reasons why the US are required to help Israel, helping
Israel is the responsibility of the US because they respond to the biblical
teachings. The Bible is the foundation the US should be based upon for the
government of the nation. The founding fathers of the nation have known where
their power and strength come from, and they have acknowledged God Almighty.
For the Lord of hosts has planned, and who can frustrate it?
And as for His stretched- out hand, who can turn it back? (Isaiah 14:27NASB)
This is the necessary condition: The US is
obliged to assist Israel because of the existence of itself.
Let’s reconsider our nation then and
now. Viet Nam is always boasting that we had a four-thousand-year culture and
our ancestors were descendants of the dragon and the fairy. Nonetheless, the
Bible says: The dragon, the serpent of old who is called the devil and
Satan, who deceives the whole world
(Revelation 12:9 NASB). The dragon is a beast, the Holy Bible says, is it true that our ancestors were
descendants of a beast? Then, no wonder why the April 30, 1975 happened.
The Bible says further: The fear of the
Lord is His treasure (Isaiah 33:6 NASB)
If our nation
knew the Holy Bible, if they appreciated the Creator of the Universe and His
teachings, should we have needed the US aids? Should we have left the country
and lived in exile and a refugee life? Should we have fatigued in taking to the
streets, in demonstrations and in calling for actions against the Communists
like now?
The Bible reminds us: Know therefore
and see that it is evil and bitter for you to forsake the Lord your God,
and the dread of Me is not in you (Jeremiah 2:19 NASB)
7. THE REPUBLIC
OF VIET NAM
Satan used the Republic of Viet Nam like a
pawn in a chessboard. Satan allowed the RVN to live a time and then expelled it
from the World map. Satan was aware of the fact that in life unless men faced adversity and had
enemies, they would know nothing about fighting or competition. Living always
in peace and tranquility with full joy people wouldn’t realize what others
needed. Satan was the master sower of
hatred in human hearts. Contention and war would take place when men’s hearts
were filled with anger and resentment. In war and struggle everything failed
them, they even ignored the One Who
richly supplies us with all things to
enjoy (1 Timothy 6:17 NASB). The people of the South never knew how
cynical and bitter the Communist savors really were, and profitant that
ignorance Satan set up several traps for them to be caught in. Nevertheless,
the North Viet Nam emigrating to the South understood perfectly and clearly how
the Communists were. Therefore, Satan
set up his ready plan because the South Viet Nam didn’t worhip God and didn’t
bow down to their Creator.
In order to hold back the Communists
Satan had to help the Republic of Viet Nam re-organize the nation. He began to
equip the South with training officiers and unused weapons in stock in the
warehouse ( of discarded types ). Later, Satan knew that the South could not resist the North by
themselves, he helped them with human powers. In 1965, he let the US and the
Allied Forces engage in the war against the North. As expected, Satan reaped a big crop in
implanting discontent, hatred and hostilities in the heart and mind of the
Vietnamese people.
At Mau Than Tet, the Viet Cong
overwhelmingly assaulted the cities and towns of the South. The Vietnamese
people were greatly shocked by that event.
How painful it was! How barbaric
and bestial the Communists were! At Hue
city, the Viet Cong massacred thousands and thousands of innocent citizens
(striking heads, burying alive). The relatives of the deceased and missing were
in search for the dead bodies in the mass graves with tears streaming down on
their cheeks while the press and media shut up like clams.
Ho chi Minh’s general offensive failed
and the VC cadres of the North died in great number. Ho was desperate and his
rancor became more effervescent than ever. Ho made up his mind to send more
troops to the South so as to fill in the vacant positions of the deceased.
Unable to realize his ambitious dream, Ho should die one year after. Ho left an
unclean and odious heritage to his disciples who continued to lead their
citizens into the path of death.
On the other hand, knowing the bravery
and the fight qualification of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Viet Nam,
Satan began to provide for the South Viet Nam Armies new war tools like M16,
tanks M48, F5E jet…so that he could be spectator of a decisive and deadly
battle stage on which the South and the North were actors.
Once again, a fierce war occurred in the
South Viet Nam in Summer 1972. Undescriptable! Inestimable! How many people
were laid down and died! Everywhere was in flood with blood and tears. The
hatred was rising like cascade among people of both regions. Feeding rancor in heart, the North Viet Nam
were determined to invade and devour the South as revenge for the failure of
the Mau Than offensive. In response, the South Viet Nam got prepared, they were
ready to defend and offend with restitution in the heart of every solidier of
the ARVN. Satan knew for sure he would earn a big profit that time because both
sides were caught in his trap. He also knew clearly that no one could take the
retaliation spirit away once it was stuck firmly in human heart.
The Bible says: They are bronze and
iron; they, all of them, corrupt. The bellows blow fiercely,the lead is
consumed by the fire; In vain the refining goes on, but the wicked are not
separated (Jeremiah 6:28-29 NASB).
Something more to say, the diplomat
Kissinger, a Jewish American, clandestinely met with the North Viet Nam
Communists at Paris in France. He was bargaining privately and secretly with Lê
Đức Thọ a commissioner of the Communist Politburo. He revealed to the Red China the American
plan of unilateral withdrawal from Viet Nam in 1971. He was also the forerunner
who paved the way for the President Nixon’s journey to China in 1972. He
settled many agreements and exchanges with the North Viet Nam Communists and
signed the Paris treaty on January 27, 1973 for a cease-fire in South Viet Nam
(the US and the Allied Forces withdrew and came home and the North Viet Nam
Communists returned to the North…). What could Kissinger do by himself?
After March 1973, when the US and the
Allied Forces withdrew their troops out of the South Viet Nam, the North Viet
Nam Communists received from the Communist bloc and their tributary a great
quantity of weapons and from the
profusion of those war tools they proceeded another deadly offensive so as to
terminate the existence of the Republic of Viet Nam.
The North Viet Nam Communists used up
their manpower by training their new
enlistments hurriedly and in a short time in order to send to the South. The
559 Transport group moved back and forth night and day . The HCM trails were
wide open. The images of the flying B52 enormous eagles were no more seen in
the sky. Instead, the SAM missiles were haughtily flying overhead and parallel
to the Viet Cong troops in direction of the South beneath.
The US aids were cut off, the South Viet
Nam was in danger, they didn’t receive any other assistance. Their friends
didn’t care, no country came to help for many reasons.
On April 22, 1975 the US forced
President Nguyen Van Thieu to resign. Thieu said good-bye to his compatriots
and left the power with a bleeding heart.
At ten AM of April 30, 1975 the Republic
of Viet Nam collapsed and ceased breathing.
April 30, 1975 was the day that the
South Viet Nam was mourning for their children. It was the day that marked an
end and a beginning. It was the day that the strife changed its form. It was
the retaliation day. It was the day that absurdity transformed. It was the
regime-changing day; it was the day of flag-changing. It was the day the blind
could see, the deaf could hear. It was the day the haughty laugh was mixed with
the cry of sadness. It was the day no-ending chaos exploded. Everything was
melting. Everything was scattering like
a thatched hut facing the tornado.
8. THE
VIETNAMESE COMMUNIST PARTY
The Communists are inhuman, they always hide
their iniquity in their bossom
(Job 31:33 NASB), they are experts and masters in persecution, robbery,
merciless killing, conspiracism, hypocrisy, unforgiveness, insensibility,
selfishness, greediness, haughtiness, contention, arrogance, dissidence,
schism, skepticism, snobism, lying, boasting, ungratefulness, treachery,
defying one’s own life, incest, immorality, disregard for human life, dishonor
and opposition to parents.
From the day April 30, 1975 on, the real
face of the VN Communist Party has been exposed and everybody in the country
and all over the world could see and know exactly how demonic and devilish the
Communists are.
The Communists have been practicing the
three-no doctrine and saying that there is no God. The Bible says:
The fool has said in his heart, there is no God (Psalms 53:1NASB) and
every man is stupid, devoid of knowledge (Jeremiah 10:14 NASB). Being
foolish, senseless and without knowledge as they have been, how can the
Communists have a thinking or a thought about the family, about the nation? How
can they know there is a God above their head, the One in whose hand is the
life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind (Job 12:10
NASB)
The Vietnamese Communists have been
arrogantly challenging God and teaching men to live far from the divine truth,
they used Ho’s depraved thoughts to contaminate the mind and soul of the
people.
The Communists have ruled their people
harshly and brutally. They have fed their soldiers and their men of Security
and secret services with violence and employed gangsters to terrorize, to
oppress and to intimidate their fellow citizens. The Communists obliged their
citizens to eat the bread of privation and drink the water of oppression
(Isaiah 30:20 NASB) and they took blood to build hamlets and evil to construct
cities and towns.
Why is that brutal way of ruling still
existing? The Communists still live because ungodliness and unrighteousness are
not extirpated from human hearts. Our evil hearts never stop growing, they are
richly blooming and bearing fruit in our country and throughout the world. The
more evil abounds in our heart, the more the Communism will grow stronger in
our country and elsewhere.
I read some Scriptures for you: Why do
the wicked still live, continue on, also become very powerful? Their
descendants are established with them in their sight, and their offspring before their eyes. Their
houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God on them. His ox mates
without fail; His cow calves and does
not abort.They send forth their little
ones like the flock; and their children skip about. They sing to the timbrel
and harp and rejoice at the sound of the flute. They spend their days in
prosperity and suddenly they go down to Sheol (Job 21: 7-13 NASB).
Based on that thought many people
willingly enlist themselves to be the Communism disciples and to be in service
for the Communist Party, faithfully to the extent that they have abnegated
their egos and blindly implemented their tasks given. Satan has dominated and
blinded their conscience. As materialism
matters, those people no longer know anything about morality, they have kept
themselves away from God and do not call on Him for help annihilate all
wickedness in their heart. They continue to keep for themselves hatred that
Satan has been in need to separate men from the love of God.
Our nation was a gift of Satan given to
the Communists, therefore they can do everything they want. They have abolished the Cross, from the North to
the South of Viet Nam, they have encouraged the artists to make graven images
of the dragon and let them exposed on hill tops, inside of pagodas, in communal houses, in small shrines
and even on the arches they have made on
festival days. The Communists have led their people to the path of death by
challenging God and His love.
With hatred in heart men had foolish acts,
the Communists have excavated the graves annoying the peace of the dead and not
letting them rest. Cemeteries were destroyed, or let in ruin and in
devastation. Perfidy has been held tight
in their lips, no way for it to be off. They do not stop persecuting, imprisoning
and assassinating the defenders of human rights, they send out the Resolution
Thirty Six (Thirty Six Streets and Guilds ?) to seduce the in-country residents and the
refugees of the Communists living abroad.
During the years of war the Vietnamese
people have been experiencing so many national vicissitudes. Painful scenes have appeared before people’s
eyes everyday. People could see the dirty truth the Communists have used in
their ruling since the birth of the so-called Viet Minh in 1945. Presently, we are still seduced by the sweet-
like- honey invitation of the Communists that would have killed millions of
lives.
Unfortuately, a number of the Vietnamese
people are not able to quit their idiocy, they cannot cure their addiction of
the Communism leaven to the extent that they boldly reject and deny their
identity of 1975 runaway and refugee to be willingly and arrogantly responding
to the Communist deception and lie as did the VN patriots in the years of 1945.
Really, history is repeating its course!
The Communists’ contention never ceases,
everyday they share with one another the
possessions plundered, they take advantage of the nostalgia and the love for
the country of the runaways and refugees living in exile overseas. They continue
to throw dust in the people’s eyes, they set up recreation and entertainment
programs to entice the expatriate like us, they want us to forget our
affliction for being away from our
fatherland, they want us to forget our self that is always in need of
God’s salvation and forgiveness from our Heavenly Father.
Satan employs the Communists to bind men
in a variety of forms, with many artifices, to snatch freedom that is happiness
in life that God has given to mankind. How to escape Satan’s trap? How to
shatter the shackles of the Communists? Satan has deceived the Vietnamese
people. … he has tied them up firmly.
Who can abate, uproot or expel the Communists out of the VN
territory?
Should we bow our head and let evil
cleave our life at all times? Should we not call on God and rely upon Him? If
not, how can the Vietnamese people evade the Communist brutal powers and
Satan’s yoke? How can we do with our empty hands and void mind?
Should we bend our knees before the images
of inanimate objects, implore them to help us be released from the Communist
shackles and Satan yoke? Such behavior will irritate God once again.
Only God is the One Who knows clearly that
your end has come, and the measure
of your end (Jeremiah 51:13 NASB); it’s also Him Who declares: I
shall make what he has swallowed come out of his mouth (Jeremiah
51:44 NASB) and I shall serve them their banquet and make them drunk, that
they may become jubilant and may sleep a perpetual sleep and not wake up
(Jeremiah 51:39 NASB).
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you…Be miserable and mourn and weep (James
4:8-9 NASB).
The Lord Jesus Christ also said: Apart
from Me you can do nothing (John 15:5 NASB)
I clothe the heavens with blackness and I make sackcloth their
covering (Isaiah 50:3NASB).
9. CHEN LE - CHAMPA
Chen-le and Champa have been erased
from
+ the world map, what are
remaining? Only remaining are desolate Cham towers, exposed under the sun and
rain and standing isolated on the VN soil. The old vestiges proved that the
Cham had plenty of graven images and worshiped them as gods. They rejected God
Almighty, they were being devoted in their idiocy because Satan had blinded
their heart and managed them to worship idols that everybody knew they were
breathless and worthless but only graven images which deceived people. Their
descendants whose names were changed are still remaining as living witnesses in
the land of their forefathers and as the minority of the nation.
God’s words teach us: Turn now
every man from his evil way, and amend your deeds, and do not go after other
gods to worship them, then you shall dwell in the land which I have given to
you and to your forefathers (Jeremiah 35:15 NASB).
10. The Story of Satan
Satan summoned
a secret meeting with his staff. At the onset, he ordered his subordinates to
spare Israel due to MASTER’s prohibition,1 he had to comply with it
absolutely. Looking at the world map in front of him and well scrutinizing,
finally he picked up Vietnam.
He raised his voice: “German, Italy, and
Japan are considered as being already
broken up. Now there are only two blocs: the Communism and the Free World. It’s easy! The French have
spent US money, have their part in Dien
Bien Phu, and they seem to be tired and exhausted now, so they must be off. The
people of the North, the Center and the South VN cannot put up with one
another, they have no solidarity, so they must have a lesson from us to learn.
Let the American come in and separate them in two sides, so that they can make
war with each other. While producing the new weapons we give the South Vietnam
some old which are still in stock so that they can use them up for us and
through this transaction we may have some profit.”
“The North Vietnam has been assigned to the Communist bloc (the
URSS, Red China and the tributary countries) and the South Vietnam has been
ascribed to the Free World (the US and
its Allies); the 17th parallel was like the throat; if we cut it
off, the North Communists cannot penetrate the South and then, how can our
weapons be used up? Impossible!
Hearing this, a henchman said: “ How
about the Geneva treaty? How about the
general election if it should be carried out? Satan smiled and unhurriedly replied:
“Erasing will be the best way.”
The meeting became exciting and
enthusiastic with many ideas. The fate of the RVN Government has been put in
the scale to see which side will
prevail.
“Priority is the conveyance of the
weapons to the South! Negotiating with Laos and Cambodia, giving them some in
order to make use of their borders for avoiding to go deep into the mainland,
they would be surely satisfied. The US had their men available for repatriation
and they would be in charge of setting up of a government in the Republic of
Vietnam (the First Republic). That’s the first stage, it is supposed to be
done.”
The next meeting seemed improving.
Many proposals have been reviewed, “the weapons supplied to the North must be
modern, as many as possible to urge the leaders of the free world engage into
the battle, otherwise, we surely incur losses!”
Satan set up the plan perfectly, he let
down the leading man of the RVN because that guy got in his way. Exactly as
expected, the leader of the free world
went to Vietnam without any
obstacle.
The URSS, the Red China and their
tributary countries with all their efforts provided an immense quantity of
weapons for the North Viet Nam. Ho chi Minh satisfied with the weapons obtained
signed right away a decree for general mobilization and sent his troops to the
South.
The US found a second guy and the
Second Republic was established. They furnished the RVN with new and modern weapons so that they
could fight against the North Communists. And the life-and-death struggle
between both sides increased its
intensity. All kinds of weapons were brought
into use in the war.
Satan disclosed a secret to his staff:
“I understand very well that both sides – the Communist world and the free
world – are fighting for their supremacy. In this fight they have the chance to
show their power. The North Communists want to consummate entirely the South
and then, they have to agree with any conditions provided a great quantity of
weapons willl be in Ho’s hands so that he can realize his dream. The US have
all their power to win the war but I have another strategy! The Master allowed
me to have all dominion over this world and in the heavenly realms with a
recommendation from Him not to harm His children, I must obey and dare not do
against His command.” 2
Satan spoke in a roundabout way and
didn’t say about his secret, the whole staff became excited since they wanted
to know the truth. He smiled and said:“The problem is simple. I send my man to
France, he will call for both sides to sit down and discuss about the
cease-fire and the question will be dealt. Let the US come home and relax for a
while and then I shall make another
arrangement. I know that the North Vietnam Communist have many artifices and I let them take
possession of the South Vietnam; and when they have swallowed the South they
will see that it is impossible for them to vomit. They will pay back to their
brothers the capital and interest of the finance and materials they borrowed.
To solve this problem, I think, sooner or later they will ask help from the US
their old enemy.”
Satan continued: “ It’s easy for me to
act because Vietnam is not the MASTER’s child, the Red China as well. If the
money problem is not settled once for all, many stories will happen, my dears.
Surely you understand what I am saying?”
Everyone in his staff seemed
entirely half-witted. The meeting room being stirred up became suddenly mute,
they heard Satan disclose his secret: “The North Vietnam Communists have been
provided with all kinds of weapons except one thing (?). The RVN organized many
units save one (?) If the foreign aids are cut off, one of them should show his
hands to be chained. The war was over as such!
Now I let you know this “missed thing,”
the thing should be thought of but both sides didn’t do, that’s it!” All the
staff didn’t know what their boss said, they looked at one another with their
head shaken and the long sighs. It’s very mysterious to them. Nobody understood
what the “missed thing” was about.
@ In a celebration party
Satan inquired his subordinates about what was the “lack” of the North
(Communist) and the South (RVN) in the past war. No one knew how to
answer! Satan chuckled, with a peace of mind knowing that his secrets were not
yet exposed. He emptied his glass of liquor, and stood up, promising to reveal
to his staff his plan performed in Vietnam in the past, now and in the future. Hearing this promise
everybody was eagerly longing for the next meeting.
With the same World map of the preceeding
meeting, Satan recounted: “I have the intention to leave some countries for the
Communist Bloc (such as Red China,
Vietnam, North Korea and Cuba) to make some profit for myself. Our assorted
weapons have been manufactured just
for testing, nobody knew exactly
what kinds they were. And now all the
warehouses are full, we must search for
market to dispense them all in order to have more room for the newcoming ones.
We have to blind the human hearts, make them foes to one another, thus they
should find the opportunity for the warfare. We would harvest big from it!”
“Previously I played a nasty
trick on the International Communists that might be painful and unforgotten for
them. I used a big-league guy with his One-World-ism as gentle as a lullaby for
those who heard it. In the present days,
to my view, the Vietnamese Communists are still enthusiastic with this damn
three- no theorie! It makes me so
happy! They know nothing about our
strength and weakness. With them the Communism only matters, as long as it
still exists they will have the chance to plunder their people. They are not
aware of the MASTER’s command: all the illegal profits should be
returned and the maker can’t
enjoy nothing therefrom.
Because when the unjust and ill-gotten
wealth is in hands, their conscience will go away. Actually, how wise the
Eastern Communist block was! They wisely change direction! When the water stream is limpid everything
therein shall be clearly seen, but no one can see as the water is troubled. The
European Common Market with their eurozone money sooner or later will be
staggering like a boat encountering the great waves, or like a log flowing up
and down in water.”
Satan spoke in a roundabout way
without reaching the point he had promised to his staff and his men began to be
fidgety. Satan gave an appeasing smile he ever had and explained: “I don’t talk
about World War One or World War Two, not necessary now! I don’t want to speak
of the “Freedom” and “Communist” bloc that bored people as well ! I only like
to tell about the Vietnam War of the other days: whereas the one side was lack
of “bombs” was it necessary for the
other side to ask for “canons and artillery?” At Dien Bien Phu I let Viet Minh
win the battle, perhaps you guy didn’t understand my scheme, did you? Fighting
don’t need conventions nor regulations, nor tolerance but the have-to’s: if you
want to have some moment to relax but make profit, you have to plan for the future. Not only should the losers quit
with resignation and hatred in hearts but the winners had no good fate as well.
Who could escape from my hands but the MASTER”S children? Satan also quoted the
Words of The Scripture: “Money can provide all.”
With the briefing stick in
hands, Satan looked at the Vietnam map and indicated the geographic name Khe
Sanh asking: “The flying distance from there to Hanoi and from there to Guam,
you guy try to compare their difference and let me know with your idea…” The
whole conference hall seemed noisily insistent, the attendants looked at each
other with head shaking since they didn’t know what Satan wanted them to say
about. With an inherent smile, Satan revealed: “With the Khe Sanh battle alone
we gained much ! Was it that when having
no bombs people should surrender?
Anyway, I let the North Vietnam Communist win over the South Vietnam
because I knew that the immoderately greedy persons ought to be docile and
easily controlled and directed. Just give them the booze and you can have what
you desire. Once being boozed up they’d surely fall and lie motionless!
Satan resumed: “Let the VN Communist
Party enjoy the exclusive control for a while because I understand them very
well: their narrow mind, their
superficial knowledge, their proficiency in evil treachery, their
skillfulness in using cunning and unethical means and their love and reverence
for their idol that is the Communism. Besides, family and motherland are
nothing for them. All they have to do up
front are drawing as many projects as possible to blind the eyes… and to have
the opportunity to transfigure the so-called dictatorship of the Proletariat
into realistic Red Capitalists. My next step is commanding them to eradicate
all the Montagnards living along the Truong Son mountain range and along the
VN-China border. Their faults are
knowing perfectly their motherland where
they live and die, their attachment to it and their responsibility to defend it
and they all are my MASTER’s children. I
want my plan to be easily done now and to morrow.”
A subordinate raised his voice after
listening: “To ease our action let’s organize them in zigzag form. Assigning the policemen, the gangsters and
mobsters in the midst of the mass…Allowing the coming in and going out of the
Red Chinese and letting them stay and live together with the aboriginal people;
in doing so we are preparing for our cause and react rapidly just in case. And
about the projects, the Highway and the High-speed rairoad should be performed
as quickly as possible. The other projects could be dependable, it’s OK. We
must stir up the intense hatred of the Vietnamese people they had toward the VN
Communist Party, and consequently those people will stand up because as long as
the Chinese Communist still exist, the Red Chinese will feel free to go in and
out of the VN frontier to control the VN soil and assimilate the VN people…Thus
it will take a long time, hence our weaponry in store will be piled up and we
have no way to dispense them, the loss will be ours!”
Another subordinate exposes his ideas:
“The VN people love their country and their fellow countrymen, but with their
out-of-date and unusable three-decade weaponry , how can they engage in a war
and defend themselves from their aggressive, imperialist and bully brother from
the North? If they want to have more modern weaponry to be compatible to the
fight, how can they have a way? Evidently there is no way with the US because
the American are not allowed to sell weaponry to the Communist, hence I think
that the best policy is to let the VN Communist retire!”
Hearing this, Satan burst out laughing. He
striked the table to make sign to everybody to listen to his announcement of
his decision: “MASTER is the Lord Almighty and Sovereign, He has allowed me to
have in my palms the world and the
heavenly realms on the air but once His commands are given they should be done
and done right, no mistake is allowed.
The Vietnamese didn’t know that I am the
dragon, didn’t they? The dragon is me by
origin, I am God’s creation in Eden, the Lord’s garden, and… the
Guardian Angel. I did have neither offsprings nor descendants.
What an excessive and false claim ! If one day the VN people find out whom
their original forefathers are, they will repent and come to trust the MASTER,
taking Him for refuge and then I must give up and quit !”
During the break Satan left his staff and
one of his subordinates stood up and spoke freely with his own ideas: “There’s
no saying with us, nevertheless every man cannot live long after one
hundred years of age! Almost all the generation of the Communists
who have proudly boasted themselves to be the pinnacle of human intelligence
should die, the next generation with
their illegal material heritage in possession, without minding any rules and
laws they will act with their free will
and tear apart the nation regardless the
protest and opposition of their fellow
citizens. Following the path of their predecessors those malicious folks can
never be indifferent to the wealth inherited but keep on enjoying the riches
and wealth plundered in spite of the debt burden they have left to the
plebeians and their offsprings ! And…Red
China has become their god ! Such is the
leadership of the VN Communist Party, why do we keep silent and do nothing in
the moment like this?”
“We must wait for the commands of the
leader.”
The bell rang, the conference resumed.
Satan took his seat, all the staff were listening to a subordinate who
presented his question:
“In 1958, to be able to get the
Red Chinese weaponry, in form of debt payment in advance, one of the
leaders in the Central Committee of the Communist Party signed a diplomatic
note to the Red China recognizing the Paracel and Spratly Islands, which were
under the sovereignty of the Republic of Vietnam, as their own territories. What
a bizarre and unprecedented form of debt payment in human history ! Why
did the Red China consent and accept? How strange it is!
“The sea territorial tensions and
conflicts are exploding and expanding. The 1958 document is still there, in the
hands of the Red Chinese! How can
the Red Vietnamese respond to their brothers? In fact, the people living
under the Communist regime are standing up and claiming that the sovereignty of
the sea and island territories are the VN nation’s and their people.
When the VN Communist Party is defeated, is still valuable this black and white
sheet of paper?”
Satan rose and announced: “The meeting
ends up. You guy, do not bother whether it is still valuable or not. I will
have the last word. MASTER has given me
all the authority over this world and I will act as I see fit.”
@
Coming back to his private room with his persistent thinking Satan spoke to
himself: “For clarifying all unnecessary query I shall let my men know a little
about my identity and my plan I have been making so far! I will select some faithful guys of my staff
and offered them a copious meal, and I try to inquire them about some matters
that they might give me some worthy and helpful ideas in return!” From the bottom of his heart Satan knew very
well that the truth can never be hidden but sooner or later it will be
uncovered. With this idea in mind he felt secure to perform his plan of
eating and talking over the world affairs with his disciples.
All his loyal confidants were on the
list – those who shook the earth and made kingdom tremble – they would
have a good appetite. At the meal Satan stood up and recounted all his past:
“Having a good favor from the MASTER, I walked among the fiery stones in the
garden of Eden, the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty,
and blameless in my ways. I said in my heart, I will ascend to heaven, I
will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will ascend above the tops of
the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High. As soon as the idea came
into being in my head with no turning into action, MASTER discovered and
expelled me from the garden”…A servant wants to be equal to his MASTER!
“Anyway, I have the right to destroy
this world, I have the authority to control everything in the limit the
MASTER licensed me. I expect that you all be aware of your position, listen
very carefully and carry out accurately all plan and program given, set apart
and do not touch any chosen people, races and nations of the MASTER although
they are against us. Never think that the MASTER know not and disregard His
command, the consequences shall be inestimable! Our destiny is already
disposed, we have no words!”
With a long breathing of disappointment
Satan resumed his speech: “However, I still have my ability to sow the toxic
seeds of doubt, hatred in human hearts and once they sprout, take root, bud,
blossom and give fruit, - the profit
will be considerable - -- and we have it all in our hands. But sometimes, the MASTER
dislikes, I should give up and get nothing. With a few words I think you all
understand me.” In reality, nobody in his staff could comprehend what his point
was. Then he continued to tell
story:“There was an eagle that built nest in the treetop. From his nest he
directed his view far away, he looked on the air, he looked upon the ground, he
looked deeply in the ocean with his prey-seeking eyes. His two strong and
wide-expanding wings motivated him to fly freely everywhere on the air. His
solid and sharp claws made him the protector of himself and the prey-chaser for
his eaglets feeding. He was excessively intelligent since he knew very well
that the MASTER was fond of him and protected him everyday in the absolute
security, so he didn’t have to fear or worry. I wanted to be like him but it
was impossible to me !” Hearing this charabia his men were struck dumb and
looked at each other with a long breath.
They didn’t know what their boss said really.
Satan laughed reluctantly, he told
another story, “The head of the Freedom bloc possessing tons and tons of solid
gold and as pledge, countless IN GOD WE TRUST banknotes are printed and abound
in the world market and their countlessness renders their maker constantly the most eminent. Many times I made up lots
of schemes to abate and decrease the value of this currency and to be wiped out
from the world market but I failed and I had to give up finally. I also proposed the use of a new currency in
place of the dollar currency but my designs were killed from the start and my
dream never be realized. Many people
cried and died miserably, many countries
were under trying conditions, afflicted, non-supportive and ceased to exist because
of missing the dollar back up, this is still a fact !”
Feeling the stuffy air in the room,
Satan changed his subject, he spoke of the war topic: “Anybody who walked
ouside, and It rained suddenly, they had no umbrella, no raincoat, and then did
they have to use their hands to cover their head and their face and run as fast
as possible to find a shelter? In the instance of running rapidly away from the
rain would anybody have any intention to contemplate other things? In the dry
seasons would people expect the rain? Would they be happy and no more worry
when it was raining?” The whole
conference room remained silent and listened to the boss’s explanation:
“In the war, bombs should be abounded (of
various kinds) to overcome the enemy. Bombs would be dropped from above and
overhead like pepper spray and being
incapable to put up with the bombs the enemy would raise their hands for
surrender? The belligerent Japanese had to bear the hotness of two atomic bombs
and they ought to raise their hands and no more rule the roost! With the unawareness factor the Israelites gave
the Arabian bloc a preemptive strike with bombardment and they also prevailed !
About the Vietnam War story two bombs being dropped overhead the Communist
troops at Xuan Loc and caused the pop-off of one division. I am about to tell
the account and you guy give me your idea. If the USA consented to bomb Dien
Bien Phu would people remember anything about General Vo Nguyen Giap?
The plan should be kept secret and it be
performed in due time. Being defeated the French had to make off. Viet Minh
captured two personages: Ta thu Thau and Ngo Dinh Diem, one was sentenced to
death and the other left alive. Were bombs a decisive factor of victory or
defeat in the battlefield? The North
Communist also had the opportunity to experience the power of bombs and had
already been victimized by those explosive devices and they were on the brink
of giving up... but I didn’t want to lose loyal servants like them. I wanted
them to accomplish their role on the stage, they had to end their play to the
final scene… I knew perfectly their double-tongued behavior, their
ungratefulness and their competency in being disloyal to their teachers and
traitorous to their friends… and…their capture of the South Vietmam was also a
design of mine, and in that volatile victory
they would fall into the abyss of resentment dug by their people and we
will wait and see.”
With a sip of liquor Satan continued: “The heads of the
Communist Party are getting hold of a great wealth they sacked and will not
think about anything else. They will
take advantage of the power they have in their hands to search for more wealth
to satisfy their covetousness. The nation is in great debt on a daily basis for
their robbery of the national treasure but they don’t care and they are not
silly enough to think about paying it back.
The motto “Eat and Run” is always in their heart and mind, it is also their reason of living. Therefore,
to hold on to power they should be docile to the Red China, their master, to do
exactly what they command and let the nation and their fellow citizens alone
with their difficulty and suffering now and in the future…This status will not
last long, sooner or later will come their end. What do you think?”
One subordinate stood up and said: “The
more oppression the people suffer the more reactionary they will become!
Because of the debt the Red China feels free to deploy their people to Vietnam, control the East Sea and station
their troops along to be ready for…From the start nothing has been seen but the
nations of the South East Asian are already on guard… The Vietnamese people are
dissatisfied with the good-for-nothing authorities and hostile to the North
enemies with their evil intention. The animosity and enmity of the people will
be like a boil swollen with pus having come to a head and only with a needle
draw the pus will come out.
It’s very easy! The people need only to
hinder the supply of food and drink for the Chinese workers on the
Vietnam soil and to hem them in without doing anything else. That is the best
way for an effective retaliation with the approach of burning the house and the
rats will come out and that is also a way of discovering the presence of those
illegal people sneaking in the VN territory and another way to cause the
leaders of the Communist Party to go ape shit…”
Satan applauded and said:“ It’s nothing
hard! With a single sound of my cough all the storehouses of weaponry will be
empty to make room for other stuff! I have the authority to sift Vietnam one
more time, Master will not forbid me!”
11. THE STORY OF THE GARDEN
The story is about a master who used to
set up the games for money. He chose his two disciples for the game. One is a
crafty, malicious and greedy guy. The other guy is stupid, vicious and
foolhardy. Their strengths and their weaknesses, the master knows very well.
The crafty one is non-submissive and the stupid one, obedient. The reward for
the winner is the garden flowing with milk and honey.
The day before the contest, the stupid
one had the support of two coaches, they gave him the tonic to reinforce his
strength. Although the master loved the crafty one but he didn’t do anything
for him and remained as referee.
Of course the stupid one won the
contest very easily. Practicing the law of the jungle he caught and tied up the
crafty one, giving him a severe thrashing. Being painfully beaten, the crafty
had to transfer all the tricks he had to the stupid one so as to spare more
pains. Learning some new lessons the stupid one seemed proud and happy and did
many strange and silly things. Even his reward was also sold to have money for
his spending.
Afterwards, the master came and see
the crafty guy, taking care of the injury and giving him some dissuasion.
Sometimes the master visited the stupid guy and gave him some gifts.
Ten years later, the master sent his
attendant to both sides for reunification, asking them to sit down together and
put aside all the stories of old.
Knowing that both sides were
irreconcilable, the master made another
choice, using the gifts to win the stupid guy’s favor. In addition, he also
brought home the crafty guide to live with him so as to compensate him for all
the inconvenience he had encountered previously.
More than twenty years after, before
his death, the stupid guy let to his children the garden and a quantity of his
toxic remaining that he had used of in his old days. As for the crafty guy,
living at the master’s home for a rather long time and feeling that his health
was degrading so quickly and his death was also near, he asked the master for
permission to go back to his home and profiting from the occasion to pay a
short visit to the garden he thought that the stupid guy had made it
devastated.
Being aware of the disciple’s
intention the master didn’t let him go because he knew that when seeing
together they would be fighting for their stories of old. Not being able to go
the crafty guy bore a grudge against his master and cursed incessantly the
stupid one.
Nearly twenty five years had passed,
the master loved his two disciples and their children. He had a particular
affection for the children of the stupid guy, he let them come to his house for
study, acquiring his teaching and training how to cherish and preserve the
garden bequeathed by their father. The master looked after the children of the
crafty guy as well. He recommended them not to sow the hate and hostility like
their predecessor. Although the children of the master’s disciples lived under
the same roof, they were continually at odds with one another and didn’t want
to sit down together.
The master sat counting the tips of
his fingers and he figured out that the time passed quickly, more than thirty
years already! His two beloved disciples had been sleeping peacefully, well,
waiting for the 42nd or 44th year (i.e. two generations)
he appeared again with his extremely effective treasure – the stick, the
carrot” and let the children of the crafty and the stupid guy make their choice.
They would be prosperous in their career then.
Presently, the master is accumulating
all his efforts to train the children of his two disciples the practice of the
cunning betrayal to be ready for retaliating the coach of the stupid guy who gave
him the tonic previously. That coach also wanted to have a share of profit from
the garden rewarded to the stupid guy.
Suddenly the master remembered that
the stupid guy had many children rather one. Both coaches also brought home
those children for education as he did. The master thought again and again and
said to himself: “Surely, to the grandchild generation, they would bury the
hatched!”
The foster child getting out of the
room (his father died 25 years ago) reminded the master the phrase “such
father, such son!”
The master nodding repeatedly thought
it over carefully: “The offspring of a
dishonest person and those of the wicked one never get along with one another.
That garden must be in ruin!”
The adopted child gave a further
comment: “You teach your disciples retaliate and attack unexpectedly their
trainer, don’t you be afraid that they
would use the way of turning one’s battery against oneself to play against you?
What do you think?”
The master seemed indifferent with a
smile of self-complacency, putting his hands in his pocket taking out a dollar
bill and showed to his son asking him: “Do you see these words IN GOD WE TRUST
on the face of this dollar bill? This is the secret of living in true
happiness, son.”
The foster child heard but kept
silent, he had no more ideas!
PART TWO
@ After the WW II only
were remaining two blocs, the Communist bloc and the freedom bloc. When the
International Communism was terminally ill, its health was degrading and the
Communists themselves had no more strength and power to dissuade their
brothers; and before their eyes, the East and West Germany shook their hands
for reconciliation, the Eastern Communist bloc, the USSR changed their
metamorphosis, the world wore the old but reverse robe and breathed a long
sigh… now, we are four red remaining (Red China, North Korea, Viet Nam and
Cuba.)
@ After more than
eighteen centuries (from 70 AD to 1948) of losing their country and scatteringly
living all over the globe, the Israelites came back to the land the Lord God
had given them and their forefathers to rebuild their nation, right on
their promised land, with the US
supports. Presently, they acquire all kinds of weapons and of super qualities
just because they are chosen people and heirs of God the Most High.
The VN Communists have been making God
Almighty angry by denying Him but they are making intimate friendship with
Israel, sitting at the banquet table with Israel and together with Israel they
are looking into the future. Moreover, the Communists are also enhancing the
cooperation with Iran (Israel’s foe), consent to employ a new currency ( not a
dollar nor an Euro one). A gold currency? A China currency? Very strange, is it?
@ You still certainly remember Dien Bien Phu battle
(1954) between the French and the Viet Minh? The French asked the US for help with bombing, the US ignored, the French
should swallow their resentment folding their flag and made off and going home.
General Vo Nguyen Giap became famous, his name was well-known all over the
world.
In 1965, the US stepped into the South Viet
Nam and a time after, the Khe Sanh battle happened (1968) and was considered as
the second Dien Bien Phu. Again, the Communists had another chance to receive
series of bombs coming from the B52 eagles and General Vo Nguyen Giap became
mute and no more boasting.
@ Have you ever been
questioning about the reason why the US stopped halfway in the course of
dropping bombs over the heads of the North Communists while they were ready to
raise their hands for giving up and
demanding peace?
The North Communists continued to bring war
tools and men to the South easily, placidly and without any concern! The oil
pipelines from the North to the South were untouchable. The group of Molotova
vehicles and Sam missiles, freely ran night and day in parallel to one another
in the HCM trails to the South in compliance with the orders to destroy the
preys who were in need of antidote. B52 had to be inactive and aerial
photographs remained for fun.
@ Bombs had the power to
stop the movement of the enemies, they took the lead in battles. Bombs caused
terror to people. The gigantic bombs dropped over the heads of the North
Communists at Xuan Loc (Long Khanh), with only two, but one division of men
“born in the North, dead in the South” were killed and dead in standing and in
sitting positions. Tthey never had the opportunity to come back to their native
land. Thereafter, the detonators were sent to Thailand and the metal casings
heaped up into piles, waiting for…
Take the VN map, and let’s look at the
demarcation line according to the Geneva Accords (July 20, 1954), it is only a
narrow straight. Let us imagine, If bombs dropped right there, how would the VN
Communists flood the South? But they would indeed! The fact is that the
Communists have succeeded in going through and…
their prey has been snatched
without difficulty. It is ironic, isn’t it?
@ Similar to the
pox-marked face of a person having smallpox, the Viet Cong concentration zones
were speckled with holes by the ploughing of the B2 bombers. If having the
opportunity to sit on the helicopter flying through the secret zones of Boi Loi
and Ho Bo and the Truong Son mountain range people could see myriads of pools
of different sizes and filled with-moss-and-mud-shade standing water. There
were also myriads of graves pertaining to the Communist soldiers who were on
the way to the South. It is unbelievable, isn’t it?
@ It seemed very ironic when
thinking about the appalling peace agreement of Paris being signed by Le Đuc
Tho and Kissinger who were jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize! The US and
the Allied Forces should retreat from
Viet Nam and moved back home. Ironically, the Communists troops still stayed in
place, in the South Viet Nam, and did whatever they wanted. Such hidden
meetings have decided the destiny of the South Viet Nam! The chess game was
ended and a new one was about to begin…regardless of the loss of 58 thousand lives
of the US and the Allied Forces.
With the American people: a big loss! At the backstage of the US Congress: no big
deals!
@ Speaking of the Mau
Than Tet (1968), the Communists took vengeance, performed bloody purge. The
assassination was not as different as previously – the land reform (December
19, 1953) – there were also killings, striking heads, burying alive... the press and the media kept
silent as clams. Is it truly shocking? Is it very base?
More disgusting - the days before April 30,
1975 – the Media with their exaggeration, spread one-sided news and sowed
hatred, fear and uncertainty in the hearts of the Vietnamese people…Before
these situations, runaway for life was the best solution for the conscious mind
of the minority. The Press stirred up and troubled the water stream, created
chaos and difficulty to the Republic of Viet Nam Armed Forces in their retreat. They waved the banner for the rapid
moving forward of the North Communists!
@ The Republic of Viet
Nam had its friends somehow, and brothers who helped them in case of need and
in difficult situations. Why did the other countries not have the willingness
to help the South Viet Nam when the RVN was desolated? The capability of
defense and counter-attack of the Republic of Viet Nam was not mediocre. The
calling of stronghold against the
Communism of the Republic of Vietnam has been soon in oblivion! A futile appellation?
(a question mark, not an exclamation point). Helping Viet Nam, was it fearful
of the US embargo as a future peril? How
disappointed it was!
@ To tell the truth, if
there was no supply, no visit and no support of the “ blue-eyed” gentlemen in due
time no prisoners of the Ka Tum prison could go back home and reunite with
their family. Diseases ( malaria, dysentery, oedema, poliomyclitis,
tuberculosis) took many lives of prisoners. If the “blue-eyed” gentlemen had no
transactions done, the fate of the prisoners in the reeducation camps of the VN
Communists would be dead end !
@ The
Viet Nam Communists were playing excellently their role! They became big “jailers” after the South was
invaded. They thought that they were enjoying their Great Spring Victory ( Dai
Thang Mua Xuan) in the country. They sang the North liberated the South
song but they didn’t bear to think that the South liberated them.
The South opened the door for them to step in the United Nations, and the South also paved the way for them to take
part in the WTO so that they could have their share with the financiers of the
World (they had good pay for playing well their role). How wonderful was the
scenario!
@ In 1979,
the lips (the VN Communists) were swollen for being bitten by the teeth (the
China Communists). Although the VN Communists didn’t look at the mirror they
knew that they would not find the normality of their face again. Did they feel
sorry for the distortion of the fraternal relationship between lips and teeth?
At any cost they had to manage to reinforce their brotherly love by stopping as
soon as possible any quarrel and controversy! They had “sixteen gold words” and
“four good” as the panacea to relieve their pain. When the lips perish, the
teeth become cold, therefore it would be sad when harmony failed.
In old age, the lips are usually coming
together, for fear that …when the teeth decay, they come loose and fall out,
then no more teeth, how can they become cold? It couldn’t help!
@ A question; according
to the H. O. category the prisoners should be confined in the Reeducation Camp
for at least a three-year “term” to be released from the “Communist hell” and
to have the license to come to America, have you known?
The plan of the expecting
exchange had been on the conference table for many years - from the time of the
President Ronald Reagan – to take over all grey substances remaining of the VN
nation and that of the children and grandchildren of the reeducation prisoners
living in the US.
Not all! About 25 years later the children
of the “jailers” had also the licence to go to America for their learning. Thus
the Communist grey substances were also liberated. However, both grey
substances did not dissolve when mixing together.
EPILOGUE
@ The past is still
clear in our fatherland, but the present
is not better as expected. What would be to morrow? Have your ever thought
about the reason why Viet Nam had been administered by China and France with
the rod and now being subjected to the administration of the Communist
scorpion?
Why do the Viet Nam Communists treat our
people with their malicious hatred? Why
do they oppress the people having love for their country so that they have to
succumb in distress and poverty? With their evil mind and heart the Communists
clap their hands, dance and rejoice for successively domineering their fellow
citizens! Boasting to be the pinnacles of human intelligence, they teach the
young generations to follow the example of their godfather by giving up the righteous way and doing evil
deeds so that the country become mixed
up, unsystematic and unsafe…
To move rapidly, strongly and firmly
toward Socialism is in compliance with their Three-No doctrine that is denial
of family, homeland sentiment and denial of the Heavenly Father.
Why are the immoral Communists of Viet Nam
still alive?
The Vietnamese people would kill
themselves unless they drove out the Communists and annihilated the Communism.
If the Vietnamese people do not ask the
Heavenly Father to have the Communists wear the funeral clothes, they still act
what they desire, they have the right to determine the future of the nation.
And what will be the future of the nation?
@ The news of the
nation, the news of the family, the news of the people…with what we will tell the world? As being said, the
invisible power is domineering the world, it is taking over all realms, it has
the ability to reverse the order, destroy the worldwide society, like a fire no
one can put out.
Anyway, Satan, the leaders, the
authorities, the powerful people of the world are only creation.
The Bible says: A man can receive
nothing, unless it has been given him from heaven (John 3:27 NASB).
PART TWO
(1) A heart-rending
story happened at the Cay Thị intersection in Gia Đinh area, the people came
and eye-witnessed the Japanese behavior toward a Vietnamese woman who was
involved in an illegal trade: blending saw dust with rice bran for sale.
Looking at the scene everyone had to be terrified. The abdomen of the horse
dead for eating the rice bran mixed with saw dust was cut in two and the
entrails were taken off, the woman was trussed like a pig and inserted to the
inside abdomen and sawn tight again. Being inside the horse’s abdomen the
victim was stirring, shaking for a while and remained inert.
For making a living not in a
normal but in a cheating way for her greed for money the woman came to the
horrible result that she had to be buried alive in the abdomen of a horse.
Before that tragic scene the Vietnamese had to have their head shaken with a
long sigh of disappointment with the Japanese way of ruling. Without explicitly
expressing their disagreement they silently swallowed the distress against the
Japanese cruelty. Is that fraud worth death penalty? What do you think?
In the present days, because of money lots of
people have a various form of mixing, blending and intermingling…without taking
account of the human life.
The Scripture states clearly: For the
love of money is a root of all kinds of evil
(1 Tim. 6:10)
(2) The VM’s (Viet Minh) policy in the money
making for funding the resistance against the French was relying upon the
people having fortune and those who were aimed at would have their life
withered. My father was one victim of that policy.
The VM sent their men to my father and
bought two carts of cloth. My father was compelled to sell with a bill of debt
as proof of payment. Upon the delivery of merchandise he went bankrupt. He had
to sacrifice his property for his life. He had to redo from the beginning.
After that incident we believed that everything would be alright, but the day
after the French security came and captured my father to the Deuxième Bureau at
Catinat Street and gave him a good thrashing to the extent that he was more
dead than alive for pleading guilty of supplying the enemy.
In jail, the Scripture consoled my father
with:”Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.
Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both body and soul in hell.”
(Math. 10:28)
A few months later, thanks to the
intervention of a Protestant evangelist and minister my father was released. He
went home with an injured and emaciated body…Being able to see him again made
me happy but I could not restrain my tears from running.
In the VM era, it was customary that the
citizens were living between the hammer and the anvil. The VM didn’t like the
Christians, mainly the Protestants and they sought to destroy them in several
ways. Today, the Communists still continue the same policy.
(9) For me, at the age of naiveté and
unaffectedness, I would have my prying eyes on everything with concerns and
questions. Was it because of witnessing the scenes of life, the ill and
merciless behavior toward one another that made me so? I saw the Japanese flag
appear for a time and then, it was not seen any longer. In turn, the French
color was flying over everywhere and thereafter, the national flag, the yellow
background and three red stripes. I asked my father about the signification of
the flag (?) He explained to me: “the red and yellow colors are emblems of the
blood and the skin of our people. The three stripes are symbols of the three
regions of Vietnam: the South, the Center and the North.” I continued my
question: “Who is so wise to be the flag designer, Dad?” He shook his head and
answered me: “Maybe the French govern our nation so long, so they understand
our customs, the practices of three regions and they believe that the three
regions are not be able to get along together, therefore, they designed the
three parallel stripes to mean that they never converge and… never agree upon a
single thing!”
Asking about the VM flag, I was responded
as such: “Ho chi Minh follows the Communism. Of course, he must depend upon
them. The red background and the yellow star is the son flag, born from the
father flag, the URSS flag, and the master flag which is the flag of the
Communist of China. HO also used the blood color, the yellow star, but
wittingly left off the hammer and the sickle so as to cover the eyes of the
Vietnamese people. The hammer and the sickle are symbols of the worker and
peasant. But not really so, instead, the hammer is used to strike the head and
the sickle to cut the neck of the people.”
My father said further: “The VM seized
political power on June 19, 1945. Ho Chi Minh read the declaration of
Independence on September 2, 1945 and on June 3, 1946 he signed the Preliminary
Treaty with the French, and relying upon the French he eradicated all the followers
of the Chinese Kuomintang. “Ho Chi Minh designed many tricks to kill the
patriots without mercy and many people had lain down!
Today, the VN Communist party still follow
Ho Chi Minh’s path, they don’t hesitate to eliminate one another, they are
contending for interests without taking account of the comrade love of their
old time when they have lived and made war together in the bloody, futile and
long combat on the Vietnam soil. Oh! Such is Ho! But the VN Communists kept
calling him the “godfather of the nation.” Ironic, isn’t it?
(10) Following some noisy
demonstrations of the students the Viet Minh propaganda was so pleasing to the
people ears that my sister quit her schooling and followed her guide to the
guerilla area at Vinh Long, Tra Vinh province, for being member of the force of
resistance to the French. In her young age, full of enthusiasm and fervor,
inexperienced of life and no awareness of the trap that the VM set anywhere
awaiting the prey…my sister left behind her parents, brothers, teacher and
friends and went her way. She didn’t know that she and her ignorant fellows
would be the prey that the VM were going to catch at any time.
After a time of living together with the
resistance group, my sister acknowledged the reality. The uneducated people
(illiterate) but as cell, team and platoon leaders, they were haughty, they played the bully and
forced the newcomers to do all dishonest and deceitful things. For the struggle
against the French, no Frenchman was seen, but only the people who had a little
money were ordered to pay contributions every month to show their patriotism
and support the resistance force. Anyone who didn’t do what they asked to do
would be considered as pro-enemy element and the victim would have the
opportunity to live with the worms!
Knowing that she was in a deadly danger, my
sister felt contrition of being so foolish! She swallowed her affliction,
silently asking God for opening one way for her. After many months of the
unforgettable lesson she succeeded in escaping that demonic place and turning
home with an indescribable joy. She had no more courage to come back to school
and if she needed to do so, she would be in no mood for study as the VM
deceiving image was still haunting her mind. It’s enough! Let pass the student
time!
(12) When a boy being allowed
to watch movies, I felt a great joy, especially the kind of movies my brother
brought home from the US Information Hall. Many were foreign and exciting films:
Films about science, technology… fiction and war. Films creating deep
impression in heart made me remember so long and difficult to forget, such as,
the jet plane taking off vertically like a dragonfly in a windy sky. They are
really genius! The Jet plane took off, landed, and flew to the right and to the
left, forward and backward without requiring a long runway. Until now, within a
long time of almost sixty years I have never seen such an aircraft. Was it a
fictional movie?
Thinking of one’s country with a very high
civilization and looking back at my own; it is pretty much behind the times (?)
They made war with sticks, scimitars and sharpened bamboos, and the infantrymen
had to walk until their heels were worn out or ride the bike with sweaty bodies.
Then, until the people of the South VN saw
the images of the North Communist soldiers– the pinnacle of the human intellect
– with a pith helmet combat on their head and feet with a pair of tire tread
sandals, an AK-47 rifle in hands and an ammo belt on shoulder. The South
Vietnam people saw also the policeman in yellow uniform, they saw the military
boonie hats with wide brim, and they saw the opportunists with a red band in
the sleeve of their shirt. Then, the people came to understand how the “jungle
civilization” is with its aggressive march into the alleys and streets, sowing
a multitude of terror and fright overhead of the Vietnamese people without
spare.
(13) Dien Bien Phu:
Our people fall into the habit
of telling about the past, when two or three people sit together, they would
discuss about the topics of the day, life story…A friend opened up to me:
“Thanks to the VM winning over the French, our people are no longer under the
French’s domination! If otherwise, today might be…”I laughed when hearing that,
I took the Bible and read a verse :“…that the whole world is under the control
of the evil one” (1 John 5:19 NIV) and another one: “Is it not from the mouth
of the Most High that both calamities and good things come?” (Lam.3:38 NIV). He
understood that I didn’t tell my own idea, he skipped and smiled.
The Chinese population is overcrowded, so,
when in battle they often crushed their opponents by taking their bodies to
cover the rifle-pit. Vo nguyen Giap had a Chinese general named Wei Gouqing as
master and military advisor. As always and no exclusion: First cannon and
assault, after – VM made use of the mass to overflow Dien Bien Phu after
bombarding over the enemy with shells.
It is worth to say that both
side, the French and the Vietminh, were engaging in violent combat without
result showing either winner or loser but the French soldiers were ordered to
drop their weapons and gave up (?) The French was defeated and the dream of
establishing a colonialist government in Indo-China was like rice husk flying
with the whirlwind. The French left, the American came and helped the South Vietnam re-organize the
government as they helped Israel rebuild the nation in 1948.
Israel:
Is Israel the stronghold to guard the oil
pouch of the Middle East? Why are the US to help Israel exist with all their
readiness and efforts? Rather, they let the RVN collapse on April 30, 1975, the
nation that they once considered as an outpost against the Communism (?)
After three decades of living and building
the nation, Israel was attacked by the Arab block (Egypt, Syria, Jordan,
Lebanon, Iraq) simultaneously and vehemently, and the US responded at once by
establishing an airlift for helping it and made the Arab block hold its pace
…The US help Israel, for what reason? Please read some verses of the Scripture
so as to get the response:
Israel, whom I have chosen (Isaiah 44:1)
See, they will come from afar – some from
the north, some from the west, some from the region of Aswan. (Isaiah 49:12)
If anyone does attack you, it will not be
my doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you (Isaiah 54:15 NIV)
“’Israel was holy to the Lord, the first
fruits of his harvest; all who devoured her were held guilty, and disaster
overtook them.’” declares the Lord. (Jeremiah 2:3, NIV)
For the nation or kingdom that will not
serve you will perish; it will be utterly ruined. (Isaiah 60: 12, NIV)
…The city will never again be uprooted
or demolished (Jeremiah 31:40 NIV)
The US is a Christian nation, they
study the Scripture very carefully, they fear God, they understand His supreme
power and take the Word as the precept for the national administration. They
also know where the power comes from (?)
For the Lord
Almighty has purposed, and who can thwart him? His hand is stretched out, and
who can turn it back? (Isaiah 14:27, NIV)
This is the reason why the
United States should help Israel; just because of the existence of itself.
Looking back at Vietnam, our country,
they are proud to be in possession of a four thousand-year culture, and their
ancestors belong to “Con Rồng Cháu Tiên” (i.e. descended from a dragon and a
fairy). Nevertheless, the Scripture relates:
The great
dragon was hurled down – that ancient serpent called the devil or Satan, who
leads the world astray (Revelation 12:9, NIV)
Is it true that the Vietnamese people’s
ancestor was the dragon who leads the world astray? If so, do not be wonder why
the April 30, 1975 happened. In fact, our country had a whole sea of idols and
the dragon sculptures have been found everywhere in the nation, from the North
to the South, and the people bow down to and worship all these idols, in
violation of God’s command:
You shall
not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the
earth beneath or in the water below. You shall not bow down to them and worship
them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God… (Exodus 20:4,5, NIV)
I tell you the truth, don’t be angry! Try to come to the American church and ask
them for money to build the temple or pagoda! You might be answered “no way!”
but they told you the truth for the Lord, their God! So don’t dream about
asking them for aid for edification of all those kinds of idolatry!
Concerning Vietnam, before the invasion
of the VN Communist, from the leading rank to lay people, how many of whom
venerate and fear their Creator? Until now, they are still living their way and
know nothing about:
The fear of the Lord is the key to
this treasure (Isaiah 33:6. NIV)
If they knew this long time
ago, they would have not needed the US aids, and not to run away from their
country as exile and refugee! And if they knew those words of God, they would
have not to take to the road to call for fighting the VN Communism as they are
doing currently.
Taiwan.
At the end of the 19th Century,
the Japanese occupied and ruled Taiwan for about 50 years. In August 1945, the
Japan surrendered the Allied Nations and Mao tse Tung embraced the whole
mainland of China. As leader of the Communist China, he chased Chiang Kai Shek
to Taiwan, a small island standing outside the mainland, and Chiang Kai Shek
chose it as an asylum after the defeat by Mao.
Chiang Kai Shek was settling in Taiwan and
with the support of the US he established the Republic of China in October
1949.
Being a small island next to a great
continent, everyday Taiwan had to receive volleys of cannon-ball of the
mainland. Mao’s dream of invading and taking over Taiwan never comes true; just
because Chiang Kai Shek’s wife is a Christian, the daughter of a Methodist
missionary who had studied in the United States. They all were children of the
Heavenly Father, how could they not help one another? It’s easy to understand,
isn’t it?
Surely you know the reason why our
country is still living in abject poverty under the yoke of the Communism?
The VN Communists have swayed the
balance of justice, they oppressed and exploited their fellow citizens and believed
that they were able to sit firmly on their throne permanently. They should have
thought that they were at the “lavish banquet” of the plunderers, they were
drinking a delirious drink and they would be drunk of delirium, and sooner or
later, they had to vomit what they ate and drank. They should abate, fall down
and sleep a never-awaken sleep.
(22) In 1965, at Qui Nhon the
American ship landed right at the seaside of the city, with numerous materials
of war like tanks, armored cars, cannons, vehicles and military equipment. The
surrounding area of the Quinhon airport was used as storage. When the GI’s were
allowed to leave the barracks they went downtown Quinhon and had a good time in
snack bars. In daytime, the red, blue and green lights were flashing dimly
because of the sunlight of the day. The American military police in their jeeps
were patrolling along the streets and picking up all the drunken GI. The people
of the city were also drunk for the US blue and red dollars because they were a
hundredfold more valuable than their own. The brothels sprang up like
mushrooms. The ambience was happier than before the coming of the US. Besides,
at times, at Quinhon stadium, there were the Tae-kwon-do shows performed by the
Korean soldiers and other musical shows in open air which could entertain the
people of the city.
Over a quarter of the Quinhon beach surface
was the American Transportation Unit abode with tents. The people came
searching for and getting their job so easily in the PX of the US military
compounds. There was no sabotage yet. The security was applied in a very lax
way until an afternoon; the building leased by the US for their pilots’
dwelling was destroyed by the VC cảm tử quân (volunteers for death). The day
after, on the other side of the Thi Nai marsh, the VC incited the people to go
with their boats to the city and invaded it. It was the usual trick of the VC,
so, when the boats were in the middle of the sea, they were all wrecked
by the US helicopters’ fire and I was a stupefying witness of that
tragic scene. The blood mixed with the seawater made the pain more pungent.
(24) (26) When I was in the Infantry school I didn’t
see any gun similar to that of the US soldiers I had seen before. It was a hard
time for me but I tried and drilled to be familiar with endurance. My body
seemed brawnier than it had been during my time at school, but I felt something
wrong in my heart. I was exercising the firing, killing, retaliating; I was
practicing the way to win over the enemy and keeping safe…The human teaching
and learning seemed contrast to the Word of God that I had learned before. (?)
Who could answer the question I had in mind? Upon the graduation, I had to
learn more about how to interrogate, to torture and to use tricks to exploit my
victims. Oh! Many things! Such is life? However I should been a part of it for
my survival? Until a day, I saw the eyes of a POW; I remembered that my life
was liberated by God from the captivity of Satan long time ago. How happy I had
been!
The crack of the jail door which had been
closed by the jailor together with the night rainy sound was sadder than any
other sound! It seemed that it were the long sigh of distress. On my duty
hours, I went room after room and ward to ward, and through a square opening I
looked into, I felt profoundly conscious of the unhappiness people had to
overcome.
“TWO IDEOLOGIES, ONE DRAMA” it is worthy
to struggle, to win or lose so as to come to destruction? For how long the
Vietnamese people had to bear the yoke of the Communists, the satanic yoke?
When would that yoke be taken off?
(28) The Combined Military
Interrogation Center (CMIC) was of two sides, the US side and the VN side,
combined at work, searching for knowing the enemy situation via the statement
of the VC POW’s and Hoi Chanh ralliers. Those were my everyday things and
nothing was special to me. I read all those statements to learn more about how
to get information, to have comparisons, and distinctions of the true and false
statements. Most of them were the youngsters of the North.
About the Mau Than event, the American
side of the Center seemed unrelated and uninterested as if it were only the
question of the RVN and the VC, not theirs. Therefore, they were not involved
and their servicemen were not confined to quarters like the Vietnamese
soldiers. Many soldiers of the enemy were caught at Phu Tho Hoa, in the
direction of Cho Lon and Phu Tho race-tracks and their statements were in
accordance with the US information given to us. It appeared strange to me! How
come the US knew everything? Many questions rose in my mind and remained
unanswered!
Owing to the interrogations of the VC
cadres and soldiers, I knew more about the North Vietnam. The Communists of the
North controlled their people’s stomach so that they were forced to go to the
South battle, otherwise, their family and them, they would have nothing to eat
and they would have to starve to death! What a great policy!
(29) In the final year when the Great Britain
gave back the autonomy to Singapore I attended a new course in England.
Although the teaching was given by the English, I didn’t see any difference
with the lessons I had before. They looked alike as “conformable to the
original.” A difference to me was a new lesson I learned from my friend of the
same room: the lesson of “smuggling.” All I learned from him were how he hid the
smuggling dollars in the body, the way of his contact with the partner for
payment at the rendezvous, the way he’s awaiting the seller (of diamond,
marble, cosmetic powders, women underclothes, abalone and playing cards…), how
he coaxed the pilots to bring merchandise to Vietnam, and how he got over the
customs at the airport. There were many stages, it was not easy! It was very
hard to get the money, and then, the money illegally and hardly obtained soared
like a phoenix! Really, easy go but not easy come! Such was life!
Thinking about the present, the North
Vietnam are in the quest for money, they are using many ways, many tricks, they
are living in ecstasy on their ill-gotten wealth and believed that they are
enjoying happiness. (?)
(30) I was working at the III
Corps in the sequence of five Generals, but I had only two office bosses. I
kept being engrossed in my assignments. I was happy there because I had no more
opportunity to see the prisons, that small and square opening and the eyes of
the prisoner. I sat and worked beside my new boss and an American advisor. We
were three in the office. Occasionally, a guide (with a secret number A 22)
came for a visit. Every time he came, he was warmly and friendly welcomed and
when he left, the advisor gave him an envelope of money. Knowing that he was
from Cục-R coming for information and news exchange, their co-operation was
totally unquestionable to me and I took it for granted.
Being familiar with the job, getting
along with the co-workers, with mutual comprehending and experience sharing, I
believed that I were a shuttle but it seemed to me that in my learning I didn’t
find anything new. For me, people didn’t gain anything from doubt because much
doubt would render people more painful in a lot of ways. I often used the
information and news given by the US and considered them with those of the
friend units, I forced myself to keep them in mind so as to accurately report
them to my superiors.
When I was on duty in the evening I tapped
the conversation of the VC and rewrote it in blank writing. I didn’t understand
what they said, but with the code keys of the US the text was decoded and it
became clear and understandable. Making war that way seemed slightly
indisposed!
I was often in service out of town. I
came to the friend camps near the border (Thien Ngon and Tong Le Chan), in the
blockhouse and through its loophole I looked at the sky or in a rocking havoc I
thought of the war, communicating with the friend units or following up the enemy
situations. Also through that loophole I could see the shell stars illuminating
and extinguishing in a corner of the sky. I could hear the explosive sound of
the enemy cannon balls flying by through the wind or the song of the cricket at
night. There was nothing to say. Truly boring! Like a prisoner, no difference
at all!
To the neighbor country, at Kompong
Cham, probing the Khmer Rouge, news and information were all from the US. They
gave instructions and led.
Just go and obey the superiors’
orders, what else can I do? As soldier, submit and execute according to the
responsibility and obligation, no other than that. No option. Life in the army
was only the days of deep gloom and darkness. What to be “proud” when we knew
that we were only puppets and “do as one is told” as the saying goes, we had to
jump up and down to the movement of the hand of “someone” who had the rope and
pulled.
The Corps Commander and the chief of
staff without the staff’s briefing of the friend and enemy situations would
have nothing to do but sat and drank tea. The President, too!
(The artillery, with the help of the
friend units, determined accurately the grid coordinates of the target, its
direction and distance, shift, and then, fire. The Air Navy, too, with the
information given, fly to the target push the button and return). Was Kissinger
able to do alone?
Upon the issuing of the superiors’
commands, their subordinate ranking had to carry out, the same was in all domain. That’s it.
(33)
After the event of Mau Than Tet in 1968, the North Communists met with
the grave failure although the RVNA used the obsolete weaponry which were ready
to go to the dump. Acknowledging the RVNA fighting ability, the US government
began to furnish them with the weaponry such as M16 rifles, tanks M28, cannons
155m/m, re-equipping the South Vietnam so that both side killed each other in
summer 1972. (At the end of 1974, the US jet F5 was replaced by the F5E).
The weapons provided to both side - the
NVA and the RVNA – nobody knew who had more, who had less and their correlation
of force remained unknown. Although the US deployed their troops in the South
in 1965, no one could answer why the US and the Allied Forces came to help the
RVNA pursue the war against the Communist and no longer after they let the
South Vietnam collapse!
A multitude of lives were sacrificed, a
whole sea of tears was flowing and a great number of hearts were in pain. Who
could heal, comfort or do anything to recover the human distress?
(38) The days of working together with the US
soldiers at the Bureau of Intelligence of the Third Corps I often asked myself
where the SPAR news (of A value) came from? A finger pointed to the sky, just
it! The US probing machinery followed up and knew to the details the movement
of the enemy troops, their shelters, their number, the kind of their weapons.
They knew also the name of those who were recently dead and the people
replacing them! The unauthorized people were not allowed to touch the “confidential”
documents. The US dollars expended not for fun. Nobody of the cadres of the
Central Committee of the Communist Party could get away from their “blue eyes.”
Even the high ranking cadres of the RVN government were also carefully
scrutinized.
The
American advisor repatriated long time ago and my boss had no friend to
converse with or discuss about the enemy situations. He sat alone looking at
the map of the third Corps territory but didn’t find the Cuc R anywhere. Three
divisions of the regular North Vietnam Army ( cong truong 5, 7,9) and the 429th
Regiment of Special Forces were in evasive motion. He exhaled a long sigh of
disappointment.
One day before April 30, 1975, two
American in civilian dress came to see my boss, they spoke to one another
making a rendezvous. He had to wait to know the appointment location and the
time to leave his native land for living an exile life overseas. His heart was
broken.
(40) The time before I went to jail, I used
to wander about the railroad station, seeing the people of the North happy to
come to the South. I couldn’t believe that
they were so ragged! Those people were never released by their
raggedness and their poverty. They brought with them what they possessed, a
farmer’s pipe, a pack of local shredded tobacco, a deformed and sooty metal
pot, a piece of tattered mat. They all had a joyful appearance, but they were
not able to conceal their misery for living many years in destitution. Seeing
them I could not hold in my tears. Such were the people living under the
Communist regime!
(42) Arriving to the prison-house standing in
the jungle of the Duong Minh Chau war region, the sun was about to set. No
sunlight was seen for direction, not a cottage of the local people. Everybody
was tired and worn out for hunger and thirst. It began raining and it was
chilly. During the night the rainy sound was heard like a lull. The prisoners
of “re-education” saw that there was nothing to keep for their life. The
freedom for running away was no more. Our future was before the muzzle of the
AK 47 rifles and the bright bayonets. There was nothing more to dream of save
the desperate expectation. The home-coming day was unknown.
They gave us a butler’s knife and a saw
without handle but they wanted us to build a prison house in bamboo. It was the
primal challenge of the jailbirds. With many hands and joint efforts the hut
was done. Only two packs of instant noodle were used to feed hundreds of
prisoners, which reminded me of the North Communist soldier status in the old
days. The status of both, the prisoner and the prisoner keeper, was of no
difference.
Months and years passed away, the
prisoners’ bodies didn’t remain the same as they had been before. Edema,
paralysis, dysentery, malaria were the prisoners’ partners. Many had lain down.
There were no more tears to mourn the deceased.
The time kept moving on. The former “blue
eyes” didn’t have the heart to move out and then they came to pay a visit to
the “old and intimate friends” with their gifts: sorghum, salad oil, wheat
flour, rice (blue thread bag from Seattle) to warm their heart. It’s very
painful!
(46) In the US, there is no more
anxiety to have someone knocking at the door at midnight. Often in my dream I
have the feeling that I have been still in prison. It is very strange! The
image of the prison house in the jungle cannot be erased from my mind. It still
follows me in my sleep and remain when awaken (?) How to feel comfortable,
happy, life worth of living when we are in prison? Closing my eyes and thinking
about the freedom I am enjoying in the foreign country, how wonderful it is!
Looking back at the day when I received the release paper from the re-education
camp how joyful and frustrated I was! I am free now and I am no longer in
bondage, no longer being obligated to do what one commanded me to do. Joy and
happiness! But please put in mind that every freedom must be paid with a price
but an expensive one. All the same, the
human freedom must be in a framework no other than to be like “fish in a pot
and bird in a cage.” (?)
Anyone who loves the country and the nation
should want their people to be free from the Vietnam Communist bondage, from
the devils. Looking back at myself, being tied up firmly by Satan how can I do?
The very self is not liberated yet how can we liberate the nation? The people
still have their heart filled with hatred, discontentedness with others,
wanting to prevail over, struggle for influences, having unlimited desire of
all kind of things, divisions and factions. They still bowed down before the
idols made by the hands of men. The idols have eyes but they cannot see, they
have ears but they cannot hear, they have mouths but they cannot speak, they
have legs and feet but cannot walk, they keep silent, inanimate and how can
they bless their adorers? Thus, many people are still on their knees praying,
prostrating themselves before them and making angry their Creator. There is
still greed in the people’s hearts, “evil desire and greed, which is idolatry”
(Col 5:6 NIV), their persistent jealousy, envy and unforgivingness. They bring
back their past to find fault with one another. They know that the act is not
good but they still do. Everyone likes a life of happiness and of prosperity
but nobody thinks that above each one is the presence of the Loving Heavenly
Father whose “eyes are on the ways of men; He sees their every step” (Job
34:21), He “richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment” (1 Tim.
6:17).
Please read a segment of the Scripture to
know clearly the reason why
our people are still wearing the VN
Communist yoke.
If at anytime I announce that a nation
or kingdom is to be uprooted, torn down and destroyed, and if that nation I
warned repents of its evil, then I will relent and not inflict on it the
disaster I had planned. And if at another time I announce that a nation or
kingdom is to be build up and planted, and if it does evil in my sight and does
not obey me, then I will reconsider the good I had intended to do for it ( Jer. 18:7-10 NIV).
Please remember those words IN GOD WE TRUST
and seek to come to God, destroy all the inanimate idols, that is the unique
way (and no other way is available) if our VN nation wants to be liberated from
the Communist yoke and the satanic power tying us up for long time.
EPILOGUE
“He has made everything beautiful in its
time. He has also seen eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom
what God had done from the beginning to end” (Eccl. 2:11 NIV).
Through many decades of war, the
Vietnamese have been recipients and witnesses of the collapse and destruction
of several families. Death or life could not be anticipated. Nobody could
estimate the price to be paid for freedom. Many hearts could perceive the
“disgusting truth” in the war on their soil, they were still doubtful,
distrustful, envious, refusing the immediate truth like the Israelites of old
rejected THE ONLY SON OF GOD.
Those many decades had consumed great
pains and experienced the virulence of the VN Communism, atheists and excluders
of the Truthful God. The Communists of the North kept persistently on “throwing
the “truth to the ground” (Dan. 8:12) and deprived their people of the basic
right of life that God granted to human beings: freedom.
The eyes have seen, the ears have heard
and the hearts have been aware of the Communistic and satanic impostures for
long. Nevertheless, men still feel free to launch themselves to death and never
come to know the blessed happiness that the Heavenly Father always keeps ready
for them.
This reality is clearly seen. The
Israelites of whom God spoke: “I will make you a ruin and a reproach among the
nations around you, in the sight of all who pass by” (Ezek. 5:14 NIV).
The Vietnamese people still refuse God
as always. They consent to be bound all their life by the evil without
considering their capacity nor entrusting God for help. Thus, how can Vietnam
get away from the barbarian oppression of the Communists?
Somebody, in ignorance, is still
interested and passionate in the inducement, the lull and the call of the
Communists and Satan although he knows that presently the VN Communists are in
daily dispute for the allotment of the wealth plundered from their victims.
Taking advantage of the love for the country, the fatherland and the propriety
left behind on the day of running away of a great number of Vietnamese overseas
the Communists are throwing dust into the eyes of the world. Many of their
entertaining games are displayed to lure our people overseas so that they
forget the pain for the country and forsake their identity as beings who are in
need to be liberated and to enjoy forgiveness from above.
Looking back into history when men were
divided in two, being defeated and submitted to Satan’s bondage, and like fish out of water they were living under
the demonic yoke, and being deceived,
cheated and exhorted to get away from God, they were incapable to escape from
the invisible power, their freedom was robbed and their joy of living in happiness was out of
reach.
For all these reasons Jesus has come to
earth as a man to liberate human beings from Satan’s bondage as the Bible
teaches us that Jesus died on the cross for mankind’s salvation.
You are living in the USA you surely
have seen the cross on the top of every church in all States. The cross is also
a living proof of their faith. To live in liberty, independence and happiness
is to trust in God. Only God “has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and
brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption,
the forgiveness of sin” (Col. 1: 13-14 NIV).
In Vietnam, our native country, the
people have frequently much hard work, they used their life to change
everything and they didn’t have the chance to enjoy themselves but had to leave
their “fortune” to the possession of the wicked Communists. Today, viewing
those evil people abuse their power and
tear the nation into pieces, what will you do with your empty hands and minds?
Should we prostrate ourselves before the inanimate idols to implore and to beg
for their rescue from the chains of the Communists and the yoke of Satan? Doing
so will make angry the Creator once again.
Please come to Jesus Christ today, asking
Him to forgive us and our nation.
“Come near to God and he will
come near to you…Grieve, mourn and wail” (James 4:8,9 NIV). When Jesus was on
earth, he said clearly that: “Apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:5
NIV).
It’s him who
“is the faithful witness, the first born from the dead, and the ruler of the
kings of the earth” (Rev. 1:5 NIV).
Two world circumstances, only one
choice!
THE STORY OF
SATAN
THE GARDEN
The story is about a master who used to
set up the games for money. He chose his two disciples for the game. One is a
crafty, malicious and greedy guy. The other guy is stupid, vicious and
foolhardy. Their strengths and their weaknesses, the master knows very well.
The crafty one is non-submissive and the stupid one, obedient. The reward for
the winner is the garden flowing with milk and honey.
The day before the contest, the stupid
one had the support of two coaches, they gave him the tonic to reinforce his
strength. Although the master loved the crafty one but he didn’t do anything
for him and remained as referee.
Of course the stupid one won the
contest very easily. Practicing the law of the jungle he caught and tied up the
crafty one, giving him a severe thrashing. Being painfully beaten, the crafty
had to transfer all the tricks he had to the stupid one so as to spare more
pains. Learning some new lessons the stupid one seemed proud and happy and did
many strange and silly things. Even his reward was also sold to have money for his
spending.
Afterwards, the master came and see
the crafty guy, taking care of the injury and giving him some dissuasion.
Sometimes the master visited the stupid guy and gave him some gifts.
Ten years after, the master sent his
attendant to both sides for reunification, asking them to sit down together and
put aside all the stories of old.
Knowing that both sides were
irreconcilable, the master made another
choice, using the gifts to win the stupid guy’s favor. In addition, he also
brought home the crafty guide to live with him so as to compensate him for all
the inconvenience he had encountered previously.
More than twenty years after, before
his death, the stupid guy let to his children the garden and a quantity of his
toxic remaining that he had used of in his old days. As for the crafty guy,
living at the master’s home for a rather long time and feeling that his health
was degrading so quickly and his death was also near, he asked the master for
permission to go back to his home and profiting from the occasion to pay a
short visit to the garden he thought that the stupid guy had made it
devastated.
Being aware of the disciple’s
intention the master didn’t let him go because he knew that when seeing together
they would be fighting for their stories of old. Not being able to go the
crafty guy bore a grudge against his master and cursed incessantly the stupid
one.
Nearly twenty five years had passed,
the master loved his two disciples and their children. He had a particular
affection for the children of the stupid guy, he let them come to his house for
study, acquiring his teaching and training how to cherish and preserve the
garden bequeathed by their father. The master looked after the children of the
crafty guy as well. He recommended them not to sow the hatredness like their
predecessor. Although the children of the master’s disciples lived under the same
roof, they were continually at odds with one another and didn’t want to sit
down together.
The master sat counting the tips of
his fingers and he figured out that the time passed quickly, more than thirty
years already! His two beloved disciples had been sleeping peacefully, well,
waiting for the 42nd or 44th year (i.e. two generations)
he appeared again with his extremely effective treasure – the stick, the
carrot” and let the children of the crafty and the stupid guy make their
choice. They would be prosperous in their career then.
Presently, the master is accumulating
all his efforts to train the children of his two disciples the practice of the
cunning betrayal to be ready for retaliating the coach of the stupid guy who
gave him the tonic previously. That coach also wanted to have a share of profit
from the garden rewarded to the stupid guy.
Suddenly the master remembered that
the stupid guy had many children rather one. Both coaches also brought home
those children for education as he did. The master thought again and again and
said to himself: “Surely, to the grandchild generation, they would bury the
hatched!”
The foster child getting out of the
room (his father died 25 years ago) reminded the master the phrase “such
father, such son!”
The master nodding repeatedly thought
it over carefully: “The offspring of a
dishonest person and those of the wicked one never get along with one another.
That garden must be in ruin!”
The adopted child gave a further
comment: “You teach your disciples retaliate and attack unexpectedly their
trainer, don’t you be afraid that they
would use the way of turning one’s battery against oneself to play against you?
What do you think?”
The master seemed indifferent with a
smile of self-complacency, putting his hands in his pocket taking out a dollar
bill and showed to his son asking him: “Do you see these words IN GOD WE TRUST
on the face of this dollar bill? This is the secret of living in true
happiness, son.”
The foster child heard but kept
silent, no comment!
FURTHER READING
(Some excerpts from the WAY TO THE NATIVE
LAND of the same author)
…” We see the Communists still living in
prosperity, power, and luck through many
and many years although they do not fear God at all. We see that they still
have great power ‘expanding like tree growing in old land.’ The Communists
still survive, still exist, for what reason? Because evil still exists. “The
more the evil submerge the more the Communists become strong and powerful!”…
The Communists are immoral and irreligious
people. If we vindicate that we are not irreligious, not immoral and we also
know God, but we don’t pay attention to God’s mercy, we don’t care about His
teachings and commandments and we are still judging one another, practicing
mutual suspicion, addiction, material covetousness, selfishness, keeping up
vicious practices, distrusting the saving power of Jesus Christ. Then, what
benefit for oneself and for others shall be earned from this kind of
religiosity and deism?
Where is the location of the adoration,
obedience, love and gratefulness dedicated to God? In the current life, if our
heart and soul is still attached to the evil, and if we don’t have sincere
love, there is still ground for the settlement, development and long-life of
the Communism. Because we know that the Communism lives with and by the evil,
it lives in our wicked heart which is ready to accommodate it whether we are in
our land or overseas.
Remembering Vietnam, our native land of
old, what did we have before the Communism stepped on in our land with its
treading down, trampling on and tormenting ? Vietnam used to boast and to be
proud of being offspring of the “dragon” and “fairy” couple with its more than
four thousand years of culture and its fine traditions. Vietnam had thousand
years of Chinese domination but our soil was not dependent upon the Chinese
dominion, furthermore, we were under hundred years of French domination but we
didn’t bear their influence, Vietnam has all …Nevertheless, do we ever have
more knowledge or ever think or seek to know that love comes from God, i.e. the
good news of Jesus Christ, the saving grace that God pours on our nation like a
much watery rain. (?) Do we ever boast
that we are the people who fear, love, obey and trust in God or those
who hate evil?
Looking back to our nation what will we
see? The widespread of carved idols,
mediums, divinations…covetousness, selfishness, disunion, faction and
rancor…And simply because the leaders, the authorities, the rulers and the
people don’t fear and don’t obey God, the evil has the opportunity to emerge
and develop…and taking advantage of the appropriate occasions the
Communism
got over and invaded the whole
country. For this reason, the South Vietnam lost in their hands!
Standing outside the wicked Communists
could see that our people don’t love one another, the administrators hold on to
their power, they struggle for positions and creating separation, dissidence,
corruption from top to bottom. Taking advantage of the opportunity they
introduced more evil into the intelligentsia, the working people and the
evildoers dug their way through the Government, the Army, the religion, the
schools, the markets and every house of the South Vietnam people. Seeing the
evil in our world the Viet Cong knew how to use the evil against our evil. They
relied upon the evil in our heart and made use of their tongue to deceive our
people and employ their devilish force to seize our native land from our hands
as a robbed propriety. And thus we were empty-handed because of their cunning
deception!
The Viet Cong crushed freedom into dust
and made our people from the North to the South wear the infamy yoke of which
we had the taste. Today, the Viet Cong are still seeking to lay their hands on
the lay people and abuse them. They are even greedy for “the dust on the head
of the poor people,” they are still seeking for making evil soar as high as
possible because we still have covetousness and selfishness in our heart, the
in-country and the overseas people alike. The selfishness, the covetousness are
still lively and incessantly moving forward alike. The more those evil things keep growing their
expansion and intensity, the more the Viet Cong can live peacefully in their
wickedness.
Please keep in mind this important
matter and we should meditate it carefully. We must think about ourselves and about the Communists if
we are still loving our nation and native land and we want to come back one
day.
…The South Vietnam people live
selfishly, without concern about our neighbors, we dislike unity, we don’t
humble ourselves to work together in the struggle against the devilish Viet
Cong although we have eye-witnessed many mass graves they conducted, although
we have seen the bodies being thrown about
by the rockets launched to the city by the Viet Cong or the mines buried
in the middle of the road on which the vehicles were running. Also being
deceived by the VC the authorities and their subjects became more and more
divisive, and turned against rather took care of one another. Not a drop of
tears was poured for the brave soldiers of the RVNA and the Allies died in the
battle save the tears of their relatives. Nobody remembered those people who
died for their fellows to live. The soldiers of the Allied forces came to
reinforce ours, to help us wrestle with the communist danger, who thought of
them, who knew about that precious love and sacrifice for others? They worked
and fought together with us, they helped us bear the insufferable burden, but
in response, they got back only our negligence and indifference!
The love of our brothers in the Allied Forces has been abused by the RVN
and the Communists made use of it. They twisted that love and transformed it
into animosity, enemy and aversion for one another. Many people, losing their
clear-sightedness, were bewitched by the sweet lull of the Communists, believed
them and wiped out God’s love granted
through human feeling, up to the moment when the country was in their hands we
came to recognize our foolishness that we were clearly deceived and then we
only stood and looked, swallowing our pains, beating our chest, lamenting,
repenting and regretting.
The Communists, looking at the South
and taking advantage of our squabble, our disunity, our lack of love for one
another , offended us and plundered all that we spared long time ago. The loss
of the country was due to our life that depended upon our greed and our naivety
in hearing the false flattering of the Communists and forsook God’s love and
mercy. If you don’t want to lose your country, if you don’t want to lose your
freedom, your independence and your happiness, if you want to exterminate the
Communism to be off their yoke imposed
on the country, if you want your offspring not to bear the communistic or
satanic burden, the prior condition is to exterminate all seeds of evil which
are in our heart and are dominating us now. We should teach our children to know
God’s truth right now.
“Knowing the fear of God, the evil will be
far from us.”
