The POW camp visits also lead to persistent stories - widely circulated on the Internet and via email - that the POWs she met had reviled her or attempted to sneak notes to her, which she had reported to the North Vietnamese, leading to further abuse. These false accounts have been discredited by the former prisoners who are directly mentioned in the accounts. [14].

Although Fonda's actions in July 1972 did not receive widespread coverage at the time (The New York Times, for example, ran only a brief UPI story and no photograph), her trip was perceived by many as an unpatriotic display of aid and comfort to the enemy, with some characterizing it as treason; the Nixon Administration, however, dismissed calls for legal action against her

What she did was devastating to our POWs. I'm sure that was not her intention. Same as Kerry tossing his medals. People were MAD that we were sending our guys to die for nothing. Propping up a corrupt, brutal South Vietnamese govt. What a waste of fine Americans, and Vietnamese people. I don't know why anybody ( aside from a vet or his family who lost someone ) would defend that war as being anything else but a mistake. The Govt didn't even try to win that war. They hamsrung our guys, because they are cowards in suits in an office. Current Govt and Iraq the same. She did what she thought was right at the time, and was wrong. Prescott Bush was a Nazi sympathizer who helped in the building of a war machine that directly killed Americans. That's real treason.

Jane Fonda was and still is a communist and did aid the enemy and once a traitor , always a traitor. It is a real shame that she was not put in prison and still there instead of trying to lie her way back on talk shows. Nixon Administration speaks for itself, corrupt.

Your question is vague to say the least but if you're asking if Jane Fonda actually did things that made her a traitor then the answer is yes. She went to Viet Nam and aided and abetted the enemy and caused American soldiers to be tortured and killed. Jane Fonda should be deported from this country to Viet Nam and made to stay there the rest of her life and she should take John Kerry with her.

All that you see is total truth but half known to you.
It is up to you to know the remaining half if it is of your utmost interest.
What you hear may or may not be truth. Do not pass it on unless you have investigated and seen it yourself.
As they say that "for a person to be called a liar, it is enough if he spreads a here-say without having it investigated."
For American follies in the past do not blame Fonda, just learn lessons from old mistakes and ensure that USA do not repeat that story in the best interest of US and the world at large.

There is no statute of limitations on treason. I'll give you a link to a page of what Jane Fonda did in Vietnam. She did not exercise her freedom of speech by protesting, that is not what I want her head for. I want to see her hang for the wrongs she commited by aiding the enemy by using American POW's as propoganda in 1972.

You obviously did not see the picture of her seating on the AA battery with the NVA soldiers while she was in Hanoi.

Had it been a formally declared war she would have been put on trial for treason.
