Saturday Sept. 22, 2001; 12:26 p.m. EDT Jane Fonda: U.S. Must Understand 'Underlying Causes' of Terror Attack "Hanoi Jane" Fonda advised Americans Thursday to "try to understand the underlying causes" of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon that killed 6,700 of her fellow citizens, adding that it would be a mistake for the U.S. to retaliate militarily against the perpetrators. Discussing the attacks on an Atlanta radio station, the former actress and ex-wife of CNN chief Ted Turner said she was concerned about the emotional reaction to the disaster. "It's hard to be hopeful, frankly," she told Mix 105.7 FM. "What concerns me very much is the saber-rattling and the calls for vengeance." "I think it has to be dealt with as a crime," the one-time exercise guru counseled. "And when there's a crime, you don't bomb a city or a country --- you use very, very clever intelligence, undercover-type operations to get the criminals and punish them, and then you try to understand the underlying causes of the crime." Fonda's comments have not been reported outside of Atlanta, where they caused an uproar on talk radio station WGST on Friday. She earned the moniker "Hanoi Jane" in 1971 at the height of the Vietnam War, when she traveled to North Vietnam, donned a Communist military uniform and pretended to shoot down U.S. pilots while manning an anti-aircraft gun in Hanoi.
