Kerry only admitted that he killed civilians accidentally. He put that in the war crime category, along with free fire zones, search and destroy missions, and bombing missions.

Others had committed "real" war crimes, like My Lai and the sadistic atrocities described in the Winter Soldier Investigation. Those guys couldn't help themselves, though, because of the impossible situation our misguided foreign policy put them in. They were just average soldiers, without the uncommon moral fiber that Kerry had.

Like many men of moral greatness, Kerry identified with the man at the bottom, your average GI Calley. And so on.

Very true, Kerry exonerated Calley when he discovered "the real criminal"

I've read through a number of your posts, and frankly I don't know how to take you. Are you supporting Kerry, or just pointing out that attacks on him will have to be better authenicated than they are now in this area?
