This is a story thas caused me to tear up this morning. The anger in the one man's voice who was a survivor got to me. In collage, I did a paper on My Lai and at the time I felt strongly that it was a result of the evils of hierarchal organization. And now I still feel that party, but with age I also put more blame on the individuals. But understanding this capacity for evil still eludes me. I understand people making mistakes and doing the wrong things for what they believe to be the right reasons, but it's hard for me at least o ever imagine killing in the sort of intimate, indescriminante way as ever justifiable. It saddens me though, and I feel the anger as well.
