In the early 1960's the CIA recruited and led the Hmong people of Laos to fight the communist forces during the Vietnam War in what is known
as "The Secret War". Known as some of the world's best guerilla
fighters, the Hmong loyally served as an efficient counter attack to
communist forces on America's behalf.
In 1975 the US withdrew from the region, leaving the Hmong behind in
communist controlled territory to fend for themselves. Many attempted
to flee to refuge in Thailand, thousands were killed by Lao and
Vietnamese forces during that journey. Some returned to their villages
where they suffered retaliations such as death and prison, and even
others escaped to the remote mountains and jungle in fear of that same
fate.
Today, some 5000 Hmong veterans of the CIA's secret war and their
descendants remain hiding in those same mountains. Life today is harder
then ever before as they live a life forever on the move, under
constant attack by the Lao and Vietnamese armies. They defend
themselves with antiquated guns and those taken from dead enemy
soldiers. Neither man, woman, nor child is spared in the government's
genocidal attack against them.
The military attacks are far from their only worry however. Living a
life on the run prevents the Hmong from farming or domesticating
animals, ensuring that every day is a battle just to survive as food is
scarce. They must forage the jungle for the roots and tree bark that
they survive off of.
While most of the world has long forgotten about the Hmong, the Lao
government has not. In December 2009 the Thai government forcibly
deported 4000 Hmong refugees back to Laos at the government's request.
This latest move is one that worries the jungle Hmong the most. Now,
there is no hope of escape or refuge and the seemingly never ending
battle truly has no end in sight. Their cries for help to the world's
leaders have once again been overshadowed by international politics and
they are left to play the unwilling pawns.
