WISH ALL VETS WERE KILLED

I AM A KENYAN AND WAS NOT OLD ENOUGH TO FOLLOW THE EVENTS OF THE WAR, NEITHER DID I HAVE ACCESS TO FACTUAL MATERIAL. BUT I HAVE ALWAYS HAD THE CURIOUSITY TO FIND OUT THE REAL TRUTH ABOUT AMERICA'S INVOLVEMENT IN VIET NAM. THIS YEAR I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO READ EYEWITNESS ACCOUNTS OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF AMERICAN SOLDIERS:- THE MASSACRES OF WHOLE VILLAGES, AND THE COLD-BLOODED RAPE AND SLAUGHTER OF AN INNOCENT VIETNAMESE GIRL BY PSYCHOPATHS WHO WERE CONVICTED BUT RELEASED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY RELEASED. TO SAY THE LEAST I WAS SICKENED. ALTHOUGH THE EVENTS TOOK PLACE NEARLY THIRTY YEARS AGO, I COULD NOT SLEEP AT THE THOUGHT OF THAT HELPLESS GIRL, WHO TO ME WOULD BE JUST LIKE MY BELOVED DAUGHTER. I COULD HAVE DONE ANYTHNG TO EXCHANGE PLACES WITH THAT MEMBER OF THE PATROL WHO REPORTED THE RAPISTS. MY BIG DISSAPOINTMENT WITH HIM IS THAT HE DID NOT KILL THE ENTIRE PATROL AND SAVE THE GIRL.I KNOW IN THE CIRCUMSTANCES I WOULD NOT HAVE SECOND THOUGHTS.BETTER STILL, ALL THE VETS SHOULD HAVE BEEN WIPED OUT.TO ME THEY ARE DESPICABLE SCUM.
