Did that title turn your stomach? It should. In released documents that expose yet another US coverup dating back to our days in Korea has forced me to wonder about our policys today. We have read numerous accounts of the troops firing on car and trucks filled with civilians and killing and wounding them. There is alway some kind of excuse that sounds plausible to some. In one case a person who had just been released by kidnappers was shot down before being able to really taste the freedom. As in everything that comes out of the White House these days credibility is gone.
The document, a letter from the U.S. ambassador in South Korea to the State Department in Washington, is dated the day in 1950 when U.S. troops began the No Gun Ri shootings, in which survivors say hundreds, mostly women and children, were killed.
Small wonder Cheney and Bush didn't even blink when the figures of 600,000 Innocent Iraqi Children, Women and Men have been killed in our "Shock and Awe" Invasion. They already knew this is what becoming too clearly " Standard Operating Procedure" in our times of War. Sound too harsh? I wish I could agree but I remember too clearly the storys I was told by some of the soldiers that returned from Nam. This story is not about some " isolated incident ", this was the ordered murder of Civilians and a ongoing coverup.
