NATO crimes with Agent Orange in Vietnam
Share:

Facebook







Criminal NATO wanted to destroy the population of Vietnam. For this purpose, the forest was defoliated with the herbicide Agent Orange to make transports from North Vietnam to South Vietnam impossible. The Vietnamese reacted and simply transported all material during the night. So the forest defoliation had NO positive effect.

Agent Orange herbicide damages genetic material. To this day (2018) mutilated children are born in Vietnam. The suffering of the Vietnamese people is indescribable. The same mutilations are occurring in Laos and in Cambodia, where Agent Orange was also sprayed to defoliate forests.

Since 2009 the "U.S.A." is paying 1,52 billion dollars annually to the Agent Orange victims for their NATO crimes with Agent Orange contamination. It took 40 years until the criminal "U.S.A." also granted compensation to Vietnamese and not only to their own "U.S." victims in the "U.S.A."

Most NATO soldiers do NOT know what Agent Orange is and what Agent Orange victims look like. Here are the photos from the Saigon (now called: Ho Chi Minh City) War Museum.

Texttafel über Statistik-Gebrauch
Text wall on the statistical data: 1961-1971 44 million litres of Agent Orange have been sprayed

Text:

"In the war of aggresion in Vietnam, the US not only used conventional bombs and armaments, but also chemical weapons to wipe out surrounding natural resources and prevent the forward march of the Liberation Army of South Vietnam. In the 10 years from 1961 to 1971, toxic rains poured down continuously on Central and South Vietnam, defoliating mountains, plains and crops, destroying clean water resources and upsetting the delicate ecological balance.

According to US Defence Department data, from 1961-1971, the US Air Force sprayed 72 million litres of toxic chemicals of various types on Vietnam, including 44 million litres of Agent Orange containing 170 kg of dioxin. In a study by scientists at Colombia University (New York) published in Nature magazine, the total volume of toxic chemicals that the US sprayed over Vietnam amounted to approximately 100 million litres, and the content of dioxin reported was double that of previously announced figures. According to the study, 3,851 communes suffered direct chemical spraying and the chemical directly affected between 2.1 and 4.8 million Vietnamese people.

The defoliation operation of the criminal NATO was called "Ranch Hand" ("worker on a farm") - with a logo

Preparations for spraying with Agent Orange on military airfields
NATO had its air bases in South Vietnam, in Thailand and at sea [with aircraft carriers]. At military airfields, the Agent Orange supplies were stored and transferred to barrels, which were then mounted on the planes. The Thai government allowed this holocaust to be carried out on the people of Vietnam...

Warning of the World Peace Council against napalm and Agent Orange in 1965

Text: "Napalm and toxic gas have been used against the South Viet Nam population. The peoples of the world note with repugnance the U.S. Government's violation of all principles of international law. They demand that an end [must] be put to all these barbarous acts. Such an aggression is threatening South-East Asia as a whole, and peace all over the world."

From 1971 onwards, the territory of the criminal NATO in Vietnam became smaller and smaller, and that's why there is no spraying any more there.

Map of Vietnam with areas contaminated by Agent Orange
Because of the reflection in the glass pane, it was hardly possible to photograph the map. If you were to take a close-up, you would have mirrored the camera in the window.

Unfortunately, you can't buy this map either. This means that an important piece of evidence against criminal NATO is not available to the public.

There is a lack of a little more professionalism in the museum, to protect maps behind inclined windows, and also to write the legend in English.
