John Kerry volunteered for the Vietnam War where he was decorated as a war hero. The military gave him an honourable discharge. Nothing was ever mentioned about atrocities. If you denigrate Kerry, you dishonor all veterans who served their country.

I think it's an excellent idea to rehash Vietnam atrocities while we're fighting another unjust war in Iraq, and committing more atrocities. War itself is an atrocity. As you watch the American aircraft flatten sites in Fallujah, know that intelligence isn't perfect, and we're just as likely to be killing women, children and babies as "insurgents". Know that to the ones dying, it doesn't matter that their end came from a suicide bomber or an F-16 strike, neither ot which existed there until we brought them.
