"It became necessary to destroy the town (BanTre) in order to save it."
This quote, which was alledgedly made by an Air Force Major Chester L. Brown to Peter Arnett was one of the most effective bits of anti war propaganda to come out of the Viet Nam conflict.
The problem is, "Major Brown" may not have said it at all, it was probably created out of whole cloth by Peter Arnett even back then!
Here is some source material, go about 80% down the link, it is partially in Vietnamese and partially in English.

We need to track down this "Major Brown" quote, if this was one of traitor Benedict Arnett's first "Big Lies", that will be important to know today. Has Arnett been an America hating mole since the 60s?
I read elsewhere his mentor was an Australian communist and virulent America hating reporter named ?Burchett?, this should also be tracked down.
With Hillary Rodham leading the legal attack, the Washington Post and an anonymous source feed the Socialist media stream to the ignorant masses, how much of this was real, and how much was just a Democrat hatchet job?
In retrospect, the answer will surprise no one, but it is shocking nonetheless.
