I know about war as I did work during the Korean War at Indian Town Military Reservation in Pa. that repatriated veterans coming home. I heard of the atrocities then from the soldiers own mouths. Raping and killing Korean women. Throwing their bodies down wells. Cutting off the beards of the elderly which was their status symbol. They bragged on these exploits. I was only 21 at the time. Commissioned a second Lt. and enjoyed many privileges of the camp . However I almost had a nervous breakdown when reality set in that we did not just hand out Hershey bars and were not saviours as in WW II. As far as Muslims go a great many of my RW religious fundamental friends believe that the Shias are going to take over OUR CHRISTIANITY. They send e mails to this effect. Are we all delusional or is it just me ?
