These tactics were found to be against Geneva Conventions, but most soldiers had no idea at the time. <BR/><BR/>Second, as to the Winter Soldier testimony, Senator Kerry specifically repeated what was told to him and said so at the time. It is a disservice to him, and to the Winter Soldiers, to claim that this is his personal witness. It isn't.<BR/><BR/>The most important lies the teachers have told, however, is in ommitting the millions of tons of bombs dropped in the region and the millions killed. The idea that we just didn't fight long enough, or hard enough, or in the right way, is what has kept us in Iraq and is the real danger of a John McCain Presidency. <BR/><BR/>“when small boys ask why, we will be able to say “Vietnam” and not mean a desert, not a filthy obscene memory but mean instead the place where America finally turned and where soldiers like us helped it in the turning.” John KerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
