Countless My Lai Massacres in Iraq
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/053006Z.shtml
"...while the media spotlight shines squarely on the Haditha massacre, countless atrocities continue daily, conveniently out of the awareness of the general public. Torture did not stop simply because the media finally decided, albeit in horribly belated fashion, to cover the story, and the daily slaughter of Iraqi civilians by US forces and US-backed Iraqi "security" forces had not stopped either."
The only instances when US soldiers have committed atrocities: Haditha, Abu Graib and My lai (Vietnam)
The only instances when we've been mislead about atrocities committed by US soldiers: Haditha, Abu Graib, Pat Tillman (in Afghanistan) and My Lai (Vietnam).
Isolated incidents? Ah, the ever broadening definition of the "insurgent".
