They Want to Support the Troops...with a Noose

Seymour Hersh, hater extraordinare when it comes to the United States Military, is at it again. Hersh has been desperatley seeking a return of the attention he received when uncovering the My Lai Massacre 40 odd years ago. Like most of those on the Left he looks back on the 60's as halcyon days to be relived and recreated over and over. So he pops up every year or so with another claim against the military; claims that when examined with a less jaundiced eye then his usually are made up of some pretty thin gruel.
His latest five minute hate pulls no punches in revealing what he thinks of the American armed forces and of course what better place to insult Americans than from an university. Even better a Canadian university. For which no doubt he was highly paid.



...there has never been an army as violent and murderous as our army has been in Iraq.
Not only that, but we're also being to soft on the murderous thugs.




If Americans knew the full extent of U.S. criminal conduct, they would receive returning Iraqi veterans as they did Vietnam veterans, Hersh said.
“In Vietnam, our soldiers came back and they were reviled as baby killers, in shame and humiliation,” he said. “It isn’t happening now...

But remember...
Sometimes I change events, dates, and places in a certain way to protect people,” Hersh told me. “I can’t fudge what I write. But I can certainly fudge what I say.”

So when his lips are moving, beware.
