After the Fall of Saigon, 7.5 Million South Vietnamese Murdered by North

Rudolph J Rummel, a retired political science professor from the University of Hawaii has authored 24 books and was a runner up for a Nobel Peace prize. Mr. Rummel’s book “Power Kills” is one of the most cited books in history.

April 30th, 2005 marks the 30th anniversary of the fall of Saigon.  Three decades in which the Vietnamese communist government and proxies killed 7.5 million people.  But 30 years ago the people of America turned their backs on a just cause, confused and disheartened by sensationalized violence, biased reporting, and good intentions gone awry. They cried for peace and for an end to the killing.  They thought that when we left, peace would come, and the killing would stop.  But 2.5 million would die from land reforms, murder quotas ordered by the communist leaders, and brutal political oppression.  Over a million people would flee the communist oppression and take to the sea, hoping for a better life somewhere else. Hundreds of thousands died at sea.  The future the realists had so ominously predicted came to be, and the domino theory proved true enough.
