Quê Hương Việt Nam thân Yêu ôi!
Máu đă chảy trong ḷng con dân Việt
Quên hận thù xoá tên kẻ thù
Đánh một trận lưu truyền cho sữ thế
Kẻ bạo tàn cộng sản ngóc nghếch
Chỉ biết ca là đuổi được thực dân
Rồi chia đất chia phần đổi chát
2 triệu người vượt biển t́m tự do
2 triệu người chết trong đói rách
Những tên giặc thối tham ô bạo quyền
Đế Quốc Mỹ mang quân y viện
Nào ai biết chỉ lợi về họ thôi
Hàng trăm ngàn đứa Con Lai nọ
Là kết quả của sự hăm hiếp ấy
Trên thân xác phụ nữ dân Việt
Ai sẽ làm chứng, ai c̣n làm chứng?
Cả một lủ tranh giành quyền lực
Dân than khóc phụ nữ cưỡng dâm
Xác cha tôi trong nhà tù cộng sản
Lợi nước lợi danh hay lợi quyền?
Xác Tổng Thống máu loan thành Hồ
Thế hệ tôi trong đói rách đau khổ
Người mù chữ, kẻ thiếu cơm ăn
Tôi căm hờn v́ chủ nghĩa Mac-Le
Nay Tổng Thống Diệm khuất bóng
Căn nhà kia như thiếu chủ trông nhà

I lost my family in North Vietnam, in 1954 when I was four year old. In 1963, I lost A Great Hero, The First and The Last President of Republic Of Viet-Nam, in my heart and my soul, Mr. Ngo-Dinh Diem ! My Only President was killed by his servers ( the self promoted generals ) paid by American Government, our friend! How bitter! What kind of friend is that! That big lost led to another lost....In 1975 I lost the second part of my Beloved Mother Land. Along the path of my manhood, I can afford to loose many things. But I can not live my own live without My Mother Land....

Awesome site. I've been looking for a site
like this for a while now and finally stumbled upon this. Before, everything I
read was contradicting whatever my dad, for example, the dualism of how
President Ngo Dinh Diem was perceived. Keep up the good work. By the way, I
don't mean to be blunt but eventhough these things will never be known by the
public, God saw it all, and I'm sure that the strong-faith man is with the

Other site just have Americans point of view in which i believe they have no
rights to have such point of views and judgment. In school textbooks, American
says that most vietnamese people disliked Diem. i believe that is not true
because i asked my relatives and others viet around me and they all liked him.
All i heard from others website is about Diem's cruelty in which i believe is
not true. HOw did american people know that Diem was cruel while they did not
live in VN. WE, Vietnamese, have the rights to judge about President DIem action
as cruel or not because we live under his governing.
PS: I want to ask that the other day i saw this small clips of Diem speaches but
now it is gone. Can u please post it back on this site.

would jeopardize his own and his family life by offering his residence for an

Hi! Mr. Ma Doanh.
1) Your Grand Father/Father and all the people support President Diem do
the Best things the their country and they're a part of it.
2) Did you know how president Diem and Nhu ran the South Viet Nam government?
They worked at least 16 hours every day and ate a rice with a little fish as big
as your finger and when the governmenthave a meeting the people work for that
team need to Borrow the chair....
They ran the South Viet Nam with the

I'd like to express my deepest respect to
President Ngo Dinh Diem. Just the night before the assassination, President Ngo
and his brother Nhu were driven to spend the night at my home,in Cholon, the
residence of a Chinese immigrant, Ma Tuyen who is my grandfather. Our life was
changed since that coup d'etat. My grandfather was arrested so did my father.
Our properties were seized and confiscated by the Minh government and we were
chased out of the house while I was only 6 years old and my youngest brother who
was 2 months old. Memories of my grandfather's good deeds and samaritan acts to
the country to help his country fellowmen escaping from the Viet Minh at Mien
Bac to settle in the South Vietnam were greatly admired by us. My grand father,
and father both passed away but they are my heroes. MaTuyen's legacy will
continue on as well as Co Tong Thong NGO, le president Ngo Dinh Diem feu, a
patriot who never gave up in front of his enemies, who is forever loved and

Tôi là người ở với Cộng Sản từ nhỏ, biết

độ Cộng Sản th́ phải chấp nhận như thế. Do đó, tôi luôn ủng hộ TT Diệm, chế độ

cương quyết chống cộng của ông. Tôi biết chắc rằng ông sẽ bị chết chỉ v́ ông là
người Công Giáo làm TT trong một nước đa số là Phật Giáo (cũng như John F.
Kennedy làm TT trong một nước đa số là Tin Lành)trong khi Cộng Sản luôn luôn t́m

chết đi là một chuyện nhỏ, nhưng cả một dân tộc bị "chết theo" ông v́ Cộng Sản

Thanks for the excellent site. Although I
am not a republican, I do think that Ngo Dinh Diem was the best President South
Vietnam ever had (Phan Khac Suu may have been alright but was too old). After
the under-handed murder of Diem, I think S. Vietnam was politically doomed. No
one else ever had the courage and determination to win that Diem displayed. I
also don't think his family was nearly as bad as many seem to think. I really
liked Madame Nhu, if for no other reason than for always speaking her mind
honestly - a rare thing for anyone close to politics!

Thank you for your tribute to President
Ngo Dinh Diem. While reading an American History book written by a Catholic
Historian, from a Catholic perspective, I was stunned to read of President
Diem's devout Catholicism, and that his government had NOT, in fact, been the
despotic, corrupt, dictatorial government our colleges and universities are
teaching their students. I came across your site after doing a search on the
internet to find out more information on President Diem. Your web-site was the
only one, among many, that told the story of this honorable man like my Catholic
History book.
I was a very small child in 1963, and so do not remember much about that era.
And like most Americans, I learned in school a very biased view of "The Vietnam
Era." But thanks to some honest Historians, and sites like yours, I can, 40
years after his death, learn more about a man whom I have come to greatly
respect and admire as a true hero and champion of true freedom. It's a travesty
that he, and his memory, have been so grossly calumniated. I am teaching my son
the truth about President Ngo Dinh Diem, and may God rest his soul!

Be smart my brother. If the President Diem sold his people and country for US he
not pay the price like that for his own life.Be smartOK??
I think,our country can not find any leadership like him (President Diem). Let
80 million Vietnamese people still in Viet Nam have soon can smell and taste the
value of Freedom like every human around the world. I pray Mr PresidentDiem and
his brother Nhu, help us to make that dream come true some day soon and sooner.

The person who entered the comments
on Sunday, 8-8-04, is a prime example as to why getting the truth about
President Ngo out to the young people of today is so important. This person
has obviously been indoctrinated to their present point of view and apparently
has no desire to know the truth. The only knowledge that many today have
of the man (President Ngo) is what has been taught in college and high
school classes that use the "propaganda" and false information compiled
by the people who hated President Ngo because he would NOT sell out the
Vietnamese people. Communist tactics at the time were to create a 'monster'
by a method called "Ruf Mord" or murder of a reputation by Lenin. The art
of 'hate propaganda' as Lenin described it is: "The wording (of our campaign

The phrasing must be calculated not to convince but to destroy, not to
correct the adversary's mistake, but to annihilate his organization and
wipe it off the face of the earth."[Lenin, Collected Works, Vol.XII, pp.382-385.]
Many people (reporters, polititians)
naively believed the hate mongering and willingly jumped on the bandwagon
to destroy President Ngo without bothering to verify the things that were

The truth will prevail.

You and I witnessed the terrible
destiny for a small country like Vietnam, the struggle to survive between
communism and capitalism had not been easy. President Diem did the right
things for his country, unfortunately he alone could not stop the betrayal
of American governments and the group of "mercenaire" generals. At the
end as we all have known so far, the fall of the South by the run away
of the Americans. We Vietnamese never asked for their presence in my country.
Look at Iraq right now.

I would like to express my sincere
gratitude toward the website's great effort in accumulating various invaluable
materials about the Vietnam War and many Vietnamese heroes, especially
the late President Ngo Dinh Diem. May President Diem rest in peace and
be embraced by love of his Christ. As many other Dai Viet sons and daughters,
I wish President Diem happiness and free of suffering.
In my humble opinion, let me borrow
a conversational excerpt between Mary Gimbel and President Kennedy to sum
up what I think – I believe that many would feel the same way – about
President Diem: “President Diem and Advisor Ngo Dinh Nhu were not dictators.
Despite under extreme difficult situation, they did what best for their
country!” The common mistakes that many scholars have in writing about
President Diem are: (1) they use obsolete, biased, inaccurate, and dishonest
information; and (2) they use hindsight without taking into account the
circumstances that surrounded Vietnam at the time.
As more and more confidential materials
have been disclosed by the US government, ARVN generals and officials,
and even the Vietnamese Communist government, more light has gradually
been shed to bring back the truth to many mysterious critical elements
of the Vietnam War. For a long time, the truth about the Vietnam War has
been ridiculously distorted by the US media, many former US high-ranking
officials, the Vietnamese Communist government former, and sadly, ARVN
officers and officials. Usually, there is only one common theme about the
Vietnam War that has been played over and over again like an old broken
record to justify why the US lost the war, to sooth the American guilt
of killing women and children, and to impose blame onto the people of South
Vietnam. This theme normally consists of three parts. First, the Vietnamese
communists had a tremendous amount of will power to oust the foreigners
that include the French, the Japanese and finally the Americans to gain
back the sovereignty for the whole Vietnam. Second, all of the US administrations,
from Roosevelt, to Kennedy, to Johnson, to Nixon, made many fatal mistakes
and ill-advised decisions in NOT supporting such a patriotic genius like
Ho Chi Minh, but instead supporting a religious-freak, incompetent, corrupted
dictator Ngo Dinh Diem, and many incompetent and corrupted generals thereafter.
The fact that Ho Chi Minh strongly believed in the US principle by paraphrasing
the US Declaration of Independence in announcing his country’s proclaimed
independence in 1945 and begged the Americans for support to oust the French
colonialists proves that he was not a true communist at heart and that
he openly denounced the control that the Soviet Union might have had upon
his administration. He had to finally utilize his last resort by turning
to the Soviet Union for support because he had been turned down by the
Americans whom he had most admired. In addition, he cleverly played a delicate
chess game with the big bully China to receive its support to gain back
the independence for his people despite the constant threat reminiscent
from the historical conflict and oppression by this neighbor that his motherland
had had to endure for the past 1000 years. The reason why Ho Chi Minh declared
the liberation of the south is because Ngo Dinh Diem broke the Geneva Agreement.
Here goes the commencement of the Vietnam War. Finally, the US was the
main player that fought the war. The South Vietnamese were indifferent
about the war. The ARVN were highly corrupted and embarrassingly incompetent.
As a result, the communists won.
Despite being agonized with anger
and sadness, I feel very sorry for the naïveté and ignorance possessed
by these so-called Vietnam War experts from the Western civilization. Among
ourselves, we do know that they are lies. However, what good will it do
in restoring the truth if our opinions are not widely voiced to the rest
of world outside our community, especially in the Universities, newspaper,
prestigious magazines such as Time, Newsweek, etc. The voice of the forgotten
people – South Vietnamese in particular and Vietnamese who embrace freedom
and democracy in general – has been suppressed for a long period of time.
It is now the time for us, young and old, to step up. We all must provide
more encouragement and less criticism to the people who intimately participated
in the Vietnam War to come forward with more evidence about the Vietnam
War. With the guidance from the old generation and many disclosed information,
we the younger generations will speak out to restore the truth that our
parents, brothers, and sisters did not have a chance to express. It is
a struggle! It should start from every class room in the Universities and
every article of a newspaper or magazine. We must generate more websites
such as this one to provide more information to everybody. We must construct
more literatures such as books and articles at least in both English and
Vietnamese regarding the Vietnam War from OUR perspective. Many informative
articles and books such as “Nhung Bi Mat Dang Sau Cuoc Chien Viet Nam”
written by journalist Tu Gan and others should be translated, of course
with the permissions from the copyright owners, into multiple languages
such as English, French, etc. Moreover, we should also participate in the
movie industry to provide the producers and directors with accurate information
about the war and the South Vietnamese. Is there one single movie that
recognizes the fact that the people of South Vietnam DID fight the war
too? We have been non-existent in the eyes of the US media. If Hollywood
was kind enough to include these people, it portrayed them as cowards,
murderers, and indifferent and incompetent corruptors. To name a few movies,
“Platoon,” “A Bright Shining Lie,” “Heaven and Earth,” “We
Were Soldiers Once,” “A Quiet American,” etc. “Con Rong va Chau
Tien” will definitely make a great comeback. I have no doubt that our
people possess great talents. I strongly suggest that once we as the first
generation of Vietnamese Americans have settled in, we should encourage
our second generation and the younger first generation to diversity their
educational background by exploring other fields outside technical domain
such as medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, and engineering. It is a practical
matter that without a technical background the Asian Americans in general
will have many remarkable hurdles to overcome in gaining a spot for themselves
in this relatively democratic society. However, things have changed. There
have been more and more Asian Americans holding high-ranking positions
in the governmental jobs. Thus it is a delicate balance that parents must
examine in order to foster success for their children yet still retain
the love for their Vietnamese people and country.
Long live Dai Viet!

Thank you for providing an
accurate picture of the great South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem.
Twelve
years and 58,000 American deaths after President Diem's brutal assassination,
the Communists, with the Soviet Union's and Red China's aid, invaded South
Vietnam,
slaughtering tens of thousands and enslaving the entire Southeast Asian
nation.
While all this took place, US President
Gerald Ford stood idly by and did absolutely nothing, thus betraying the
South Vietnamese people and all of the Americans soldiers who fought and/or
died believing they were sent to Vietnam to defend freedom. History proved
that they were shamelessly used as canon-fodder for the benefit of the
US armaments industry, the Federal Reserve banksters and well-connected
government contractors who profited beyond imagination from the war. Bush's
current war against Iraq is a new and improved version of the same scam
and fraud against the American people.
As an anti-Communist Cuban-American,
I propose we stand together in defense of Faith, Family and Freedom.God

Thank you for providing an
authoritative defense of President Diem from all the frivolous accusation,
repeated
over and over again until one would think that his detractors had been
hypnotized. However, I urge
all of Diem's supporters not to go blaming the United States for his death.
Kennedy was an embarassment to this nation and I think his betrayal of
Diem was just one of his wrongdoings.
The only reason so many Americans
supported his overthrow was that they were lied to by the communist propaganda
machine and the supposed "protest" suicides. Most Americans these
days think it would have been a better idea to stick in the war, and a
great amount of respect is given to Vietnam Veterans.
In any case, the truth needs
to come out, especially when so many people accept uncritically what

Thank you for providing this webpage.
I was misinformed in my history class in high school about the eventual
assination of Ngo Dinh Diem. My dad repetitive told me about the US coup
to get Diem. Unfortunately, I was blinded by the patriotism I had for this
country, I did not realize we (USA) -- speak loosely -- would do such a
thing when a man like Diem is faithfully strong and committed to seeing
his people be freed of oppression.
Finding the truth has been the biggest
embarassment of my life. As much as I am educated, I am still blinded by
the one sided view by the American education system. It is something impossible
to filter propaganda from facts and to provide a full reasonable view of
the whole situation, but as a person, with time, the casuality that have
been lost is worth our devoted days and nights to rationalize. And to my
dad ... I know he may not read this but I am truly sorry for the remarks
I made because of my one-sided view.

Khi Tổng
thống Ngô đ́nh Diệm bị lật đổ tôi mới có 10 tuổi, nhưng
tôi vẫn nhớ những ngày trước đó cuộc sống của cha mẹ
tôi, cũng đầy đủ, mặc dù ba tôi chỉ là 1 thư kư kế toán
ở nha thương cảng Sài G̣n, gia đ́nh đông con do ba tôi có
2 vợ. Tôi c̣n nhớ những lúc ba tôi dẫn anh em chúng tôi đi
xem triển lăm thắng lợi phẩm thu được từ việt cộng,
hay xem triển lăm kinh tế ở vườn Tao Đàn sau đó đi ăn ḅ
bảy món ở Phú Nhuận. Tôi nhớ hoài những ngày tháng êm
đềm của thời thơ ấu dưới chế độ của Tổng thống
Diệm, tôi thường mơ ước trở lại những ngày thơ mộng
đó.
Nhưng bất
hạnh cho Việt Nam là bên cạnh Tổng thống Diệm có thêm những
người như ông Nhu, với bà Nhu và ông Thục đă làm mất ḷng
dân để cho Mỹ lợi dụng lật đổ Tổng thống Diệm. Tôi
nghĩ nếu không có những người này, hay là Tổng thống Diệm
là phật tử trong đất nước VN đa số theo phật gia, hoặc
là đa số dân VN là Thiên Chúa Giáo như Phi luật tân với
Tổng thống Diệm là công giáo, th́ lịch sử VN đă đổi
khác.
Nói tóm lại
tôi luôn luôn luyến tiếc, hoài niệm về giai đoạn do Tổng
thống Diệm lănh đạo và luôn luôn kính trọng Tổng thống
Diệm.
When President
Ngo Dinh Diem was assasinated I was only 10 years old. But I still remember
in those days our life was happy and we had enough, even though my Dad
was only a secretary at Saigon Sea Port and we have a big family with many
children from my Dad’s two wives. I remember the times when Dad took
us to see the exhibit of weapon captured from the Viet Cong, or the economy
exhibition at Tao Dan public park, then we all went for the seven-coursse
of beef dinner in Phu Nhuan. I always remember these happy days of my childhood
under the regime of President Diem, and I often dream going back to those
happy days.
Unfortunately
for Viet Nam, next to President Diem were people like Mr. Nhu, Madam Nhu,
and Mr. Thuc, their actions caused the lost of support from our people
and gave the CIA the mean to stage a coup d’etat to depose President
Diem. I think if these people were not around, or President Diem were a
Buddhist in a nation where the majority of people are Buddhists, or the
the majority of people are Catholic like Phillipine with President Diem
as a Catholic, then the History of Vietnam might have been different.
In brief, I
always yearn for and remember the good time when President Diem was the
head of our country, and I always respect President Diem.

Those of us
who experienced Communism in all its forms and its basic unitary evil,
and then saw in Vietnam a chance to struggle for the victory of freedom,
lost once again in 1975, can now mobilize for the battle of historic truth.
Now our chance of victory in the name of truth is possible as we study
the documents and leave our mark in an explanatory history of what happened.
Only through
our devotion to the well-being and freedom of the Vietnamese people could
we earn the right to attempt understanding of what happened and why. Only
by caring for the Vietnamese, as much as we cared for our own can we achieve
a feel for their history, their plight and their strength. We may be aging
but our experiences will never fade.
The dead are
calling on us to devote ourselves to understanding why:
-
and commitment
to slavishly follow the models of evil-- Stalinist and Maoist Communism--
won, as in the case of Ho Chi Minh, Truong Chinh, Giap, Thanh and Le Duan.
Yet, the end is
clear: the evil ones also come face to face to be judged by the same Creator
of us all as we do. Let our honoring of the dead through dedication to
truthful rendition of their history bathe away all our sins and theirs,
vindicating them and us.
We must make
others understand, despite the veil of lies and deceptions that to this
day cloud the history of Vietnam's struggle with Red evil, that the massive
shelves of Vietnam War histories sorely need revision. Consider the Internet
a weapon given us by God to strike blows for truth against falsehoods.
No academic shame will stop us from respectfully honoring the dead with
truth and understanding. We are all obligate historians now!

for our Nation, you readily paid with your life to convey your patriotism.
I promise to follow your heroic and brave example for the rest of my life.
A guiding light
when you were alive, after death your spirit continues. I ask that your
spirit always guide and help our people so that our country soon achieve
the real peace and prosperity like other powers in the world.

Tôi biết
về TT Diệm và cả Gia Đ́nh họ Ngô. Tiếc thương ông là
người con có hiếu với mẹ; thương anh em và dân tộc VN.
TT DIỆM xứng đáng cho chúng ta tôn thờ cả hôm nay cho tới
mai sau .......
I know President
Diem and the Ngo family. Mourning the lost, he was a devoted son to his
Mother, beloved brother to his brothers and sisters, a patriot to Vietnam.
President Diem should be honored and remembered today and for generations
to come …

I was so
glad that I saw this website! Presenting information to the whole world
about what really happened in Vietnam. The world deserve to know
the other side, the real side. Truely, Ngo Dinh Diem wasn't as
repressive or as dictorial as many have believed. He had no other choice
in protecting the freedom of his people. Thank you so much for the informative
webpage.

How different
things might have been. Hundreds of thousands of lives would have been
saved had Ngo Dinh Diem been left to govern his country without interference.
Those irresponsible US journalists, who in 1962/63 just sent back the misleading
'Saigon' version of events in South Vietnam, were the catalyst that set
off the three maverick White House officials to launch their ill-fated
coup. Karnow, Sheehan, etc. have painted such a false picture of
Ngo Dinh Diem for our history books. I only hope that one day the record
will be set straight.
