#USInvaders & allies recorded the war using war photographers, North Vietnam & Viet Cong did it through #art.

In #TetOffensive 3 phases in 1968, North Vietnam army & Viet Cong attacked military & civilian sites across South Vietnam.

#USTerrorists retaliated with #MyLaiMassacre on 16 March 1968 - 504 civilians, mainly women & children, were gang-raped & mutilated. Those who helped the Vietnamese were seen as traitors. Only one of the US terrorists - William Calley, was tried. He was only sentenced to house arrest for 3.5 years for the atrocious war crimes. None of the other US terrorists were ever punished for participating in same atrocities on our peoples.

@PhoenixSerenity The My Lai Massacre was something that was taught to us going through Army basic training back in the mid 90s.

What was emphasized was something like that should *never* happen again. Between that and the Nuremberg trials, “just following orders” was not a defense nor an excuse.

That as a “professional” soldier, hold yourself and your fellow soldiers to a higher standard. I have no idea what’s been taught these days, but I remember that like it was yesterday

@PhoenixSerenity But the recent actions of the military tells me that either that wasn’t taught universally or was chucked out the second it was “inconvenient”.

I’m not sure what’s worse at this point

@hasani It has gone full fascist. I put nothing past these present day US terrorists.

@n_dimension @PhoenixSerenity What an idiot. There seems to be a competition between him and Trump on who can be the most insecure man alive
