Vietnam: Catholic students mocked at school

Mockering Catholic children, threatening them with bad marks and immediate expulsion, and forcing them not to go the church are what teachers have been told to do, a principal disclosed yesterday.



Not only Mr. Nguyen, many other teachers from Thach Bich, Bich Hoa and nearby areas told Catholic activists they had received the same order. They can be seen in Thai Ha everyday looking for their students, forcing them to go home, and threatening them with severe punishments including expulsion from the school.

Catholic students from Hanoi universities face even more threats. ?We have been repeatedly warned not to go to Thai Ha. We face expulsion and arrest for joining protestors, ? said an architect student, who has requested anonymity for his own safety. ?We just come here to pray. We do nothing wrong. We have no weapons and no political ambition. Why they fear us?? he asked

Terrorizing children is brutal and coward" said another protestor who has two children studying at Bich Hoa high school

Bailout on Wheels


In the 1994 elections, Republicans ended 40 years of Democratic control of the House of Representatives. So in 1995, a vice president of Fannie Mae wrote a letter to Ed Crane, president of the Cato Institute, saying that Fannie Mae intended to give that libertarian, free-market think tank a $100,000 grant.


Politics produced Fannie Mae. It was created by the government in 1938 to further the government objective of increased homeownership. It was sold -- semi-privatized, sort of -- for a political purpose: to help President Lyndon Johnson finance the Vietnam War. Fannie Mae has no objection to interventionist government; the regulatory state created and cosseted it. And it has always known which side its bread is buttered on -- on both sides, by taxpayers, through the implicit federal guarantee of Fannie Maes obligations.
