An important addition to the current perspective on the Vietnam War. We have the holocaust rememberance day in the UK we should also remember other incidents where civilians were murdered.
And we quite conveniently forget the atrocities perpetrated by the Viet Cong and the NVA. We certainly would not dare mention any of those, now would we?
WE DO NOT FORGET SADDAM nor his bossesMar 16th, 2008 - 15:13:48
Mai lai is nothing to perpetration in Iraq
The US forces actions in Veitnam look like baby doing compared what they have done in Iraq. Abu Gharaib alone, and involvement of General staff in those shameless actions and then no prosecution of the senior staff, is worse than any words can define. These people are not human beings, they are two legged beasts or worse still.
MAY BE SADDAM DID SOMETHING WRONG TO AMERICA/BRITTON/AUSTRALIA ??????
In my view, it is important that we do remember how horrible war can be. Men and women will take actions that are incomprehensible to those of us not in those situations.
Let's not forget this history lesson or the brave men and women who have served honorably.
This is a lie - the victims in Hue were killed by US bombing - see link below
'And there is no memorial in the central Vietnamese city of Hue to the over 2,000 people executed for political reasons by the Communists while they held the city during the Tet Offensive in early 1968. The bodies were discovered when the city was retaken by US and South Vietnamese forces. '
Google 'Hue massacre civilians killed by US bombing'
and see the truth!
The US Government is the worst war criminal since Hitler and Japan and may its filthy rotten system collapse and destroy itself
