This story has attracted attention here in the Madison area because members of the Hmong community here had asked that a school be named for Vang Pao. I think you will find the discussion interesting.

#2 I think Laos still has a communist government, so I'm not real attached to it. However, when someone plans to conduct terrorist attacks from our soil to put in, what most likely would be a dictatorship, it really gives me a case of the ass.

Hand 'em over to the Laos government and let them deal with the punks.

#3 From the little I know about them, these guys seem like they're on our side. But, if you're going to break the law like this, you'd better have very good friends in very high places, and it appears they did not.
I wonder if we could make them a deal, and let them go if they take their efforts to somewhere else (first) - for instance, Iran.

#5 It's pretty sad. Here in Orange County we have many brave anti-communist veterans from Viet Nam and Laos. They are here and patriotic Americans. Much more patriotic in my opinion than the scum who belittled our own troops and cheered on the NVA who now hold places of power in our own government on both sides of the ailse. After 9/11 however, we cannot knowingly allow groups to plan war against another country on our soil. If we did, we would have no place to criticize the Irans and Syrias of the world. It is tragic.
