A court in Vietnam has sentenced two Americans to 14 years in jail for to “attempting to o*******w the state”, state media reported.

James Nguyen and Angle Phan were accused of plotting to hijack radio stations to broadcast anti-state messaging and of arranging anti-state protests, as members of the California-based Provisional National Government of Vietnam.

According to the state news agency, the judge said the defendant’s acts were “particularly serious, violating national security, sabotaging the country’s stability and development, causing instability in political and social order and going against the interests of the state.”

So... will we negotiate for their return or will President Trump respond like our previous administration and allow them to remain in prison for 14 years?

And still will we buy “made in view nam” products and tour Viet Nam staying at the Hanoi Hilton. That hotel turned me off Hilton Hotels forever. Take a look at the museum at

Pensacola Air Station and see where and under what conditions our pilots were detained.
They called that the Hanoi Hilton and many of them never returned.
I consider these Viet Nam prisoners of today to be likened unto the Free French of WWII,
and the Cubans who came to Florida to be near enough to possibly go back and regain control of their country. I don’t know how it will be handled by President Trump, but I do know he’ll be criticized for it regardless. It can’t be worse than Obama exchanging militant murderous prisoners for one good for nothing treasonous Bergdahl.
