the parallels to vietnam are breathtaking.
a unit of marines apparently stormed a house full of women and children and slaughtered them all because one of their own had been killed by a road side bomb.
are the marines to blame? absolutely. but, in their defense the pressure they're under must be incredible. the dereliction of duty by the civilian leaders at the pentagon are also to blame...there wasn't a real plan for after the invasion.
the sad part is that this type of story is only going to become more and more common in the months and years (yes, years) to come.
