it happened by chance that i watched "Snowpiercer" (2013) yesterday.

reading through all these reports, seeing the atrocities which human beings are capable of again and again; it is hard to understand that it could be real, it was like i was watching a movie all over again.

just that the movie is called reality and their is no ending to it.
I saw that movie last month and thought it was terrible. It seemed totally ridiculous and too much violence for my tastes. The plot just seemed ho hum to me.

Sad, and this story is just a grain of sand.  U.S. is full of terrorists and traitors, most of which work with, or as part of the government.

I just read about the war crimes of "Tiger Force" which made me nearly puke in front of my pc.

how the fuck comes that these people never got prosecuted and are still living freely today?
how can it be that your fucked up government covers crimes against humanity and you people vote for them again and again?

the evidence is overwhelming and undisputed, i will just link you the sources and let you think about it yourself

This is the original report in 2003 released by reporters of the "Toledo Blade", Michael D. Sallah, Mitch Weiss, and Joe Mahr who won the Pulitzer Prize of investigative journalism for it:

Since then, the Army's public affairs office has rarely responded to requests from The Blade seeking updates on the status of the case, including one request May 3. Reached yesterday,
Lt. Col. Pamela Hart said she had been too busy responding to prisoner abuse by U.S. soldiers in Iraq to check on the status of the Tiger Force case.

Quote
The fact is that the testimony on war crimes presented by Vietnam Veterans Against the War in Detroit, Michigan, was read into the Congressional Record, spurred Congressional hearings into the conduct of the war in Vietnam, and echoed the conclusions of Brigadier General Telford Taylor, who prosecuted Nazi war criminals after World War II, that in Vietnam "we failed ourselves to learn the lessons we undertook to teach at Nuremberg, and that failure is today's American tragedy" (Nuremberg and Vietnam, 1970)
[...]
The Toledo Blade report on John Kerry and war crimes concluded: "Just one day after the end of the Winter Soldier Hearings, on a Kentucky army base, a sergeant told Army investigators about a rumor of a member of an elite paratrooper unit who had beheaded a Vietnamese baby four years earlier. That statement would launch the longest war crimes investigation of the Vietnam War, substantiate the longest-known series of atrocities by a battle unit in Vietnam, and lead to a case that would be concealed from the public for 36 years."
