Ep 046 "Review and Discussion: My Lai: Vietnam, 1968, and the Descent into Darkness by Howard Jones"
Manage episode 426517680 series 3426062
I discuss the slaughter of over 500 unarmed men, women and children in My Lai in March 1968 by American soldiers.
In concert with the Tet Offensive in 1968, this was the end of American arms in Vietnam.
The collision of barbarism, toxic leadership and moral injury make everyone of these pages bleed. One of the most searing indictments of American arms you will read. This book is an acquired taste because it may crush your soul.
