Take a look at the video here:


I looked.
I am not sure if you are making a new point. To me the film clip is still about war.

I don't want to disparage American troops or you, but what did you do -

When the My Lai photos became public?
When photos of American troops stripping and abusing Afghan prisoners became public?
When atomic weapons were used twice to slaughter civilians in Japan?
When civilian areas in West European cities were fire bombed?
When an unarmed OBL was shot in the head?

There is no such thing as fighting fair and fighting clean in war.
War is never pretty and never clean…NEVER.

I hate war but know in my near 68 years the earth has not been free of war for even one day, and I don't see that day coming anytime soon.
