An Investigation Will Be Taking Place To Determine Whether There Should Be An Investigation
Well, the Pentagon has finally come out, after weeks of lying out of their ass, and admitted that white phosphorus was used in the attack on Fallujah. Of course, they can't say, "We fucked up," oh, no; they have to say, "It was legal," and, "We didn't deliberately target civilians."
Okay, everyone; raise your hand if you believe Kim Phuc was deliberately targeted by the ARVN. Good; none of you do. But here's the deal: napalm was legal, and it was used indiscriminately in the raid. Does that make what happened to the villagers any less horrific? I don't think so.
Once again, the Pentagon gets it wrong. We don't care about technicalities, moral and legal loopholes, and secret investigations into what really went wrong. We want you to say: "We're sorry." Out in the open. Is that really too hard?
