Yes it is real and this is just a tip of endless Massacres and war crimes committed by your army in vitenam

What i find interesting is the ability of some you to question and still have doubts about the ugliness and terrorism of the U.S army that you ignore the fact is that this picture is just a normal day activity of the most terrorist country in modern day history.

    In an age of unprecedented amounts and quality of propaganda i have no qualms about questioning an image for authenticity. I also have no problem seeing the ugliness or terrorism committed, i just think it's important to vet information more than ever these days. I fully believe they were doing what they did there, and the article was helpful in gaining perspective on the situation on the ground there. Absolutely abhorrent.

    Of course you have the right to question anything these days on the internet, my rant was meant for the deniers and doubters.

    the first subliminal response of the American mind will be to question this factual war crime because of of the counter propaganda image that was created by the us government & then fed to them from day 0 throughout their lifetime.

    This propaganda is spoon fed in video games, tv ads, tv shows, movies, sport event, …etc

    No, I think most Americans think more along the lines of "Yes, we committed atrocities in Vietnam, but it was an unfortunate consequence of war, which is never pretty." Some McCarthy-aligned Americans would follow that up with "To make an omelette (stop communism) you need to crack some eggs (kill civilians)."

    What you said is exactly what dehumanizing means. And that last part is just pure evil since it justifies annihilating humans for propaganda.

    Well done on finding another source.

    I have no idea what you're talking about for the rest of your post though. It seems perfectly reasonable to question the validity of a random picture on Twitter.

    People are vicious and have been so for as long as we’ve been around. Your country does/did the same stuff, or would have if it could.

    crimes committed by people around me are completely the same as the hypothetical crimes people around you would've committed if we lived in a different reality, so you shouldn't criticise me and hurt my feelings. Also, don't ask why my people are still committing war crimes. Its all justified.

    You people can't be serious
