The article focuses on the book Prisoners of Hope: Exploiting the POW/MIA Myth in America, by Susan Katz Keating. Those P.O.W./M.I.A. flags, mandated by legislation in all fifty states and federal law, are still fluttering over public buildings across the United States. Keating in this book rewrites the actual history of how U.S. President Richard Nixon cynically engineered the P.O.W. issue while antiwar activists, in particular the Committee of Liaison with Families of Servicemen Detained in North Vietnam, led by Cora Weiss and Dave Dellinger, secured in early 1970 a complete, accurate accounting of U.S. P.O.W. held by the Vietnamese.

The article presents information on the books " The 6th Column Inside the Nazi-Occupied Countries," by several authors. "Underground Europe," by Curt Riess. "Prisoners of Hope: Report on a mission," by Howard L. Brooks. The three books listed above lift a corner of the curtain that conceals the dark continent of Europe and give us a glimpse of the extraordinary tragedy that is being played out there. On one side one see the arrogance, ruthlessness and sadism of the self-called master-race and on the other, the pride, ingenuity and sacrifice of those who refuse to accept the role of slaves.
