  National Front for the Liberation of Vietnam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Viet Cong (Việt Cộng) was the general name used by South Vietnamese and allied soldiers in Vietnam, as well as by much of the English language media to refer to the armed insurgents fighting against the Republic of Vietnam during the Vietnam War.
Its use became widespread in Vietnam after the 1954 partition of the country between the RVN in the south and the Communist Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRVN) in the north.
The U.S. military complained that the Viet Cong often appeared to be part of the civilian population, and thus U.S. troops could not tell the difference between the Viet Cong insurgents and peaceful civilians.

 MUSICIAN TRINH CONG SON
A typical song of Trinh Cong Son would describe things such as "the sound of artillery reaches the city every night," or "whenever the war ends, the old mother would climb the mountain to search for her son's remains," or anything ranging from blood to tears of the innocent peasants shed by the civil war.
Trinh Cong Son's songs were not banned in the pre-75 South Vietnam, although his anti-war musical works obviously parallel with the Communist propaganda themes were not allowed on state-controlled TV and radio broadcast.
And Trinh Cong Son's case does strongly justify that during the Vietnam War, the South Vietnamese were living under a true democracy though a certain limit was enforced due to the life or death struggle against the most brutal and wily enemy from the North.

 Viet-Cong Repression
Repression also serves as a means of establishing control in areas which the Viet Cong seek to "pacify," and as a major instrument in the consolidation of Communist control over already "liberated" areas.
Once the Viet Cong establish a strong presence in an area, they try to seal off the local population both physically and psychologically from any further contact with the GVN.
In expounding the various crimes of government personnel, Viet Cong propagandists dwell on the many "inhuman" and barbaric atrocities" allegedly committed by the Americans and their "GVN henchmen," the wanton destruction of homes and property, and the "rape," "murder," and "torture" of innocent men and women.

At rare moments, candidates on the campaign trail make statements that defy rational thought, where the only possible reaction one can have is to wonder, slackjawed, what the candidate was thinking when he spoke.
John Kerry went after the Viet Cong for only one-third of his commitment, bailing out by using a little-known regulation that allowed a reassignment after three in-theater Purple Hearts, which he collected for uncommonly minor wounds (and at least one of them under less-than-honest circumstances).
He rejected the fight against the Viet Cong so thoroughly that he organized massive demonstrations against it, even publicly repudiating his own service by tossing his medals/ribbons/whatever over the White House fence.
