  • Nixon's Vietnam Threat
    Nixon's Vietnam threat An Editorial President Nixon's declaration that "we will not tolerate attacks which result in heavier casualties to our men at a time that we are honestly trying to seek peace at the conference table" has the sickening ring of the big-lie technique. With U.S. bombs raining down on South Vietnam to an extent never before known PAUL BOUTELLE in war; with more than half a million American men stationed in that country to carry out a genocidal war for the petty dictators in Saigon; it is clear who bears for Mayor of New York the blame for American and other casualties in that country. The administration's hypocritical outrage over the NLF response to their continuing warfare shows that now, as when Washing­ ton first launched its invasion, the purpose is to crush a national liberation struggle. Nixon is apparently indignant because the Vietnamese refuse to yield despite Washing­ ton's bombs. He also resents the fact that the NLF V ote actions help expose Washington's lying face in Paris. Nixon- like Johnson before him­ is using the Paris talks to lull the American people into believing that the end of the war is near and that Washington is seeking Socialist Workers peace. In reality, Washington is stepping up its aggression against South Vietnam. On Feb. 11, just three weeks before the new NLF offensive, the New York Times carried an analysis of U.S. objectives in South Vietnam, written by its chief Saigon correspondent, Charles Mohr. Mohr stated "the South Vietnamese plan to bring the number of hamlets with some security protection [read "Saigon control"] to more than 8,000 by April.

Presumed circa 1974. Approximately 1 ¾ inches in diameter. Locking style back. Yellow background with black lettering. A pinback bringing attention to the police killing of 14 year old Tyrone Guyton. Guyton was a Black teenager involved in a high speed chase after allegedly stealing a vehicle. While fleeing the scene, three Emeryville, California police detectives shot Guyton in the back. While they asserted he fired on them, an ATF investigation found no evidence supporting that claim. A grand jury refused to indict the officers involved, leading Tyrone’s mother, Mattie Guyton Shepard, with support from the Black Panther Party and local Black community activists, to organize in an effort to find the truth. As she stated in part “[her] goal[…] is not really justice for Tyrone Guyton, because that is impossible, but rather justice for all the future Tyrone Guytons of all races who should be able to live without the fear of being gunned down by the police.” (See article in the E’ville Eye archive online at evilleeye.com for previous information and quote).

Donald Duncan, former Green Beret master sergeant described the. "GI and Vet March for Peace" as the beginning of a new stage for the movement. Duncan spoke at a rally following a march by 15,000 to San Francisco's Civic Center. The mood of the crowd was one of militancy and seriousness. Proud of the new links being forged between G Is and civilians in the antiwar movement, the crowd was able to prevent plainclothes military police from harassing Gis. At one point, three agents were chased into a San Francisco police station wagon, which they entered through the tailgate, and at another, two more agents were blocked when they tried to question a G I. The G I, protected by the crowd, es­ caped in a student's car. A shore-patrol vehicle that had picked up a uniformed sailor was chased for a block. The march had been organized with broad legal, clerical, labor and campus support as a means of protecting the Gis. That it worked was shown when all of the march's GI organizers were present Oct.
