Dear lying and libeling Kenneth E. Phillipps, you left out the following. part of testimony shown at the end of this post. I would have placed "crimes committed on a day-to-day basis" at the begining and the end of the ad.
Please feel free to argue how any repositioning of independent phrases quoted somehow have a different meaning if played in the exact order they were spoken.
The ad.... with repositioned independent phrases.
1 they had personally raped,
2 cut off ears,
3 cut off heads
4 randomly shot at civilians,
5 cut off limbs,
6 blown up bodies,
7 razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan,
8 crimes committed on a day-to-day basis
9 ravaged the countryside
The testimony in order.
8 crimes committed on a day-to-day basis
1 they had personally raped,
2 cut off ears,
3 cut off heads
4 randomly shot at civilians,
5 cut off limbs,
6 blown up bodies,
9 ravaged the countryside
7 razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan,
In his introductory statement, Kerry told the Senate committee of the Detroit meeting and its lurid, unproven accusations: "They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war." These crimes, Kerry said, were "not isolated incidents, but crimes committed on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command." |
