Based upon these facts about the imperialist United States aggressors,<br />

the reeducation and reindoctrination program for American prisoners<br />

proceeds as planned. 24<br />

In 1962 the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee conducted an investigation of Military<br />

Cold War Education and Speech Review Policies. During the course of the hearings,<br />

Admiral George W. Anderson, chief of naval operations, testified as follows:<br />

<strong>The</strong>re were maybe 65% or 70% of youngsters who came in with really a<br />

lack of appreciation of discipline, either imposed or self-discipline. You<br />

might say at times they were in a state of delayed adolescence, and this<br />

is the group that it was so important that we work on and devote our<br />

greatest talents to, whether they ultimately are to stay in the Navy or<br />

return to civilian life. <strong>The</strong>se are the people on which we have to depend<br />

in the service and on which America is going to have to depend. . . .<br />

General David M. Shoup, commandant of the Marine Corps, said:<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are the same kind of human beings [as recruited in the past] but<br />

they have not been exposed to what this country means and what it<br />

took to make this country what it is today. <strong>The</strong>y have not been given a<br />

realization of the worthwhileness of our way of life and that it is worth<br />

giving your life for if necessary. 25<br />

All of which is right to the point. Who on earth would be willing to risk his life to defend<br />

America if he had been taught from kindergarten that love of one's own country is the<br />

major evil of our modem world? And if no one is willing to take such a stand, how long can<br />

we hold out against the fiercely aggressive force of world Communism? While the Soviet<br />

Communists are busy inculcating in their youth a strong loyalty to the Russian fatherland<br />

and to a precise dogma, UNESCO encourages Americans to deny their own children<br />

comparable convictions. When there no longer appears to be anything worth defending,<br />

America will be lost.<br />

It should come as no surprise, therefore, to find that UNESCO has chosen to locate a<br />

western hemisphere headquarters in Communist Cuba since Cuba is, at present, the most<br />

solid Soviet satellite in this hemisphere. From there, it can carry on its subversion and<br />

propaganda activities throughout all of North and South America.<br />

An interesting sidelight on this development occurred during a UNESCO conference held<br />

in Paris in 1960. Castro's Cuba submitted a report to the other delegates at the<br />

conference which read in part:<br />

Law 680 was promulgated to lay the foundations of a new, more rational<br />

and effective general system of education. UNESCO experts have<br />

cooperated in this great task. . . . As will be seen in the following<br />

account of the implementation of UNESCO's major projects, Cuba,<br />

precisely by virtue of the revolutionary movement that is the driving<br />

force of our country, is one of the foremost nations in the world in the<br />

implementation of these projects. . . . One token of the high regard in<br />

which the revolutionary government holds UNESCO and the aims it
