This book is a light in the misinformation perpetuated by the US government and sell out historians. As American citizens we should 1. Never thank but have service members grapple with this history and the atrocities they continue to commit 2. Learn this history ourselves and hold our country accountable, 3. Fight like hell against US imperialism. Fuck this country and fuck the US military. May it end during our time. Inshallah.

Crucial for understanding the scope of the Vietnam War and just how far the US government went to cover up war crimes. A truly haunting read that traces the lineage of colonialism and imperialism to present day with the rhetoric surrounding Israel’s and the west’s genocide in Palestine.
