	Hanoi Hilton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Hanoi Hilton (Vietnamese: Hỏa Lò) was a prison used by the North Vietnamese for prisoners of war during the Vietnam War.
		American authorities stated that the Hanoi Hilton was used as a place for the North Vietnamese Army to torture and interrogate captured soldiers, mostly Americans.
		The present government of Vietnam firmly holds to the view that the Hanoi Hilton was a prison for criminals, not POWs, and that those held in the Hanoi Hilton were "pirates" and "bandits" who had attacked Vietnam without authority.

	CNN - TravelGuide - Hilton's new Hanoi hotel no 'Hanoi Hilton' - February 26, 1999
		HANOI, Vietnam (CNN) -- The Hilton International group on Friday opened a new luxury hotel in the Vietnamese capital, just a stone's throw from the site of the notorious prison dubbed the "Hanoi Hilton" by American prisoners of war.
		The five-star, 269-room Hilton Hanoi Opera, built at a cost of $62 million, signals the changing of the guard for the city, as it attempts to move beyond a past of war and deprivation toward a future of world-class facilities able to cater to international executives and travelers.
		One of Hanoi's main tourist attractions is the nearby squalid Hoa Lo prison compound, called the "Hanoi Hilton" by U.S. servicemen held there during the United States' war with North Vietnam.

	Vietnam's new "Hanoi Hilton" tries to forget the past (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		HANOI, Feb 28 (AFP) - The owners of Hanoi's new Hilton Hotel are hoping past associations between their name and a notorious jail for American POWs will not damage their chances in an already tough marketplace.
		The new Hilton Hanoi Opera is built near the site of the old Hoa Lo prison, which held many of the country's heroes during the struggle for independence from France and was later turned into a jail for downed US airmen during the Vietnam War.
		The 62 million dollar Hanoi Hilton Opera is opening its doors when other hotels in the Vietnamese capital are struggling for survival because of an acute oversupply of rooms and a steep slump in tourism.

		And that is why, when she equates the killing of thousands of Americans by the soldiers of radical Islam with the domestic crime of murder, and when she rails against a military response to an act of war waged against the United States of America, Jane Fonda stands exposed as being soft on terrorists.
		Further, the texts of her Hanoi broadcasts and other conduct there make abundantly clear that Fonda believed that she was in the right and that the United States was in the wrong.
		One thing is true; Jane Fonda did visit Hanoi and the POW camp in 1972, and she made accusatory statements against the U.S. government and military personnel that caused servicemen and their families a great deal of anguish.

	Hanoi Hilton-John McCain
		HANOI, Vietnam, April 26 -- As he strode through the shadowy hallways and incongruously sunny courtyards, gesturing here, pointing to a detail there, Senator John McCain might have been a father showing his son his alma mater.
		McCain attended a ceremony on a sweltering airport tarmac, in which the remains of six people, believed to be American soldiers missing since the war, were loaded on an Air Force plane and flown to Hawaii for forensic analysis.
		Indeed, his knowledge of the prison seemed so thorough that he expressed surprise at only one small detail: the iron doors at the main entrance were wide enough that his father was delivered through them in a truck.
