"The Chronicle found that Gen. John Abizaid, the top American officer in Iraq, and others in his command had learned by April 29, 2004, that friendly fire had killed their star recruit. That was the day before the Army released its fictitious press release of Tillman's hillside firefight and four days before a nationally televised memorial service back home enshrined the fake account of his death. Yet Tillman's parents, his widow, his brother (who served in the same platoon) and politicians like John McCain (who spoke at Tillman's memorial) were not told the truth for another month."
Add the SF Chronicle and the NY Times to the list of sources, but I doubt that it will make any difference to you.

Which is, as the whole planet knows, where the Viet Nam War was "lost", not on the battlefields and jungles of SE Asia..
Coincidence? I think not. |
Yeah, sure. It was those that wanted to stop wasting GI lives that are to blame. We could have won if only.... How many more lives would you have thrown down that rat hole of a war?
