It is set up to dehumanize us and to make everybody we see a nonhuman so that we can kill them. It would be impossible with our background to go into a village and kill a woman and child unless we looked at those people as nonhumans. And because of the service and because of the military establishment, that's how we look at the Vietnamese. If there are any questions, ask now, for we have a very short amount of time. Go ahead, ma'am.
Nobody really likes war.
I don't like it either. If you go into a war, it's kill or be killed. Now, if you see a Vietnamese person there with a hand grenade sitting in the rice paddies, you better kill them or they'll kill you. You've never seen that, lady. Ma'am, we're not talking about a Viet Cong with a weapon.
