Well, of course not. There was no requirement in Vietnam that every American there kill one civilian
every day. It's most likely an unprovable assertion, but I bet there weren't very many days in that
war where a civilian wasn't wrongly killed by American action.
Don't get me wrong. I'm no Kerry fan. I find his hypocrisy about Vietnam sickening. When he came
back, he opposed the war and made political gains from that; and he was right to oppose the war.
Now, he's playing the war hero card trying to make political headway against Bush. Well, how can you
be a hero in an immoral war?
