'My Lai
I was hoping someone would post that. It is the exception that proves the rule. We had
one incident, and it was so out of the ordinary that it still resonates today.'
My Lai was one small action within the Phoenix Programme, which as Colby himself admitted on the witness stand had been the killing of tens of thousands, every human being within a wide area was to be exterminated, that was the plan, and Colby would know, he was the CIA operative who ran the programme
There's just no point in starting up with that Perfect-USA propaganda, Lindy, life is not like that anywhere, and we'd all know better than that even if we didn't have documented court testimony to the contrary
Calley spent a few months in jail, then was released ... no one has ever been brought to justice for the murders of those five hundreds at My Lai, much less for the rest of Phoenix, or for the other programme of its nature, what was it called, Operation Speedy Express or something, some tens of thousands were machine-gunned and napalmed there as well |
