War of atrocities

Steve and I just spent the day In the war Remnants museum which largely documents the war crimes of the Americans during the war and it's affects on the survivors. Going through that museum (which is largely told from the vc perspective) is like getting punched in the gut over and over for two hours.

There are stories of massacres and ritual killings. There are pictures of the scarred napalm victims as well as the deformed children being born to this day handicapped as a result of agent orange.

Almost as touching was an exhibit that was a tribute to the slain photographers who transformed western opinion about the war. Their photographs, which poignantly told the us soldiers side of the war, were even more saddening when you hear of their deaths. These were the final images the photographer saw in his last moments of life.

The whole museum just made me realize how pointless war is, whoever it's against and whatever it's for
