USA vs. Vietnam history is full of propaganda movies. All the battles involving the US have plenty of Hollywood propaganda films based upon them. Remember, the Rambo series itself deals with propaganda from Afghanistan, Vietnam and Myanmar. Add to this other stupid propaganda films such as Rocky and those Chuck Norris movies. |

These guys really don't have a clue what would have done to the officers, who have demonstrated such behavior in the foreign country. |

Really just take the gold, man that is some low down dirty sneak thievery. How in the world is this not on the front page of every paper in the country? This is baffling that this story didn't get the attention it deserves but at the same time it just seems to be more of the same type of things that goes on these day.

Even the Russians came to know about it only after the entire gold was moved to the US. Then how come the mainstream media could report it on time? |

The operation is strikingly similar to that used to move the entire large gold reserve of Lybia out of the country.

I'm not saying report it "on time" I'm saying report it in general if that is what you're asking me. I've not heard anything about it until I read this post. Also don't you find it odd that they would take the gold? |

Not really. Not after US failed to return the gold to German and France (under various pretexts, and not even allowing Germans to inspect their gold reserve in its entirety). Not after all the Lybian gold just vanished into thin air after the NATO intervention.
US can always give an excuse that they were simply safeguarding it on the government's request (omitting any mention of the way said government came to power).

@counter: You are welcome. There is also all the talk about gold on the disappeared Malaysian Air flight, and its path intersecting a US military base. But that is more in the rumour/conspiracy department. Talking about movies : Niothor, what movie is that? Looks pretty post-apocalyptic. And what does that neatly-landed Mi-24 do in the exact middle of a square. Too neat.  |
