Narration:
(In comparison to Vietnam.
In Vietnam, the rules of engagement were such as to make an atrocity... the slaughter of the My Lai villagers took almost a day rather than a white-hot few minutes
"Bush's My Lai", or "Iraq's My Lai". Very often, the killings have been described as part of a wider pattern of human rights abuses committed by American forces in Iraq. The atrocities, similar to the one's commited by the Tiger Force.
Quite eerily similar..

We barged into this house, there was this woman and her husband and kids, her face.... Her face was simmered with anger and pain.
