[Marxism] A My Lai a Month

[Dbachmozart at aol.com]

Nick Turse, The Nation: "In  late 1969 Seymour Hersh broke the story of the 
1968 My Lai massacre, during  which US troops slaughtered more than 500 
civilians in Quang Ngai Province, far  north of the Delta. Some months later, in May 
1970, a self-described 'grunt' who  participated in Speedy Express wrote a 
confidential letter to William  Westmoreland, then Army chief of staff, saying 
that the Ninth Division's  atrocities amounted to 'a My Lay each month for over 
a year.'"
