Soldiers have been committing atrocities for thousands of years. Just because both sides may be committing heinous war crimes does not justify war crimes.

Enemies of the Jews claimed Jews committed atrocities against Germans and should therefore be exterminated. Enemies of America claim Americans committed crimes against every nation it went to war against and should be forced to repent of its atrocities and pay restitution damages to them for the crimes. Never mind the crimes committed by the whining enemies of America who see nothing wrong with their misguided hatred of Americans for the abuses that Americans as a nation never committed nor condoned.

Transcript: Kerry Testifies Before Senate Panel, 1971 : NPR

Senator Aiken: Do you think we are under obligation to furnish them with extensive economic assistance?

Mr. Kerry: Yes, sir. I think we have a very definite obligation to make extensive reparations to the people of Indochina.

[QUOTE="mark francis, post: 289783, member: 5463"] Soldiers have been committing atrocities for thousands of years. Just because both sides may be committing heinous war crimes does not justify war crimes. Enemies of the Jews claimed Jews committed atrocities against Germans and should therefore be exterminated. Enemies of America claim Americans committed crimes against every nation it went to war against and should be forced to repent of its atrocities and pay restitution damages to them for the crimes. Never mind the crimes committed by the whining enemies of America who see nothing wrong with their misguided hatred of Americans for the abuses that Americans as a nation never committed nor condoned.
