What You Won't Hear About The Wars

I remember the My Lai massacre during the Vietnam War when about 500 civilians, including children, were shot for no reason. Hugh Thompson, a pilot who tried to stop the killings, died a few years ago. His description of what he saw from his helicopter was chilling. When he appeared on 60 minutes he said he received death threats and dead animals were put on his front porch for trying to stop the massacre and reporting it. He saw children being thrown in a ditch to be shot. He was called a traitor. 30 years later he was honored with 2 other soldiers for being a hero.
If you think this is unrelated because it was so long ago, it came to mind because of what Hugh Thompson said when he described the scene. "There was just no value whatsoever on life" were his words. Just something I remember.
