I was under the impression that Kerry [link|http://www.c-span.org/2004vote/jkerrytestimony.asp|testified] before the Senate about things that were discussed during the Winter Soldier meeting. Things that others had done or witnessed. Not things that he had done or witnessed himself.
IIRC, he said at the time that he and others had committed "war crimes" by burning villages, but AFAICR, he never claimed to have committed or witnessed atrocities himself.
Am I mistaken?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Scott.
(Who personally thinks that it's clear that US troops did commit atrocities in Vietnam. I'm annoyed by Kerry's testimony, and his spin on his testimony, putting all of the blame on the brass and none on the people who did the acts though.)
