So they're able to hide it at first, but about a year later, the story comes out.

And so that is hugely controversial.

There's Lieutenant Calley, who's the leading perpetrator, is put on trial, will get convicted.

Americans actually have divided on this, and some people

think that Kali was just being made a scapegoat.

Other people thought, you know, Kali fully deserves this.

He was doing this.

Now, there's then speculation.

Maybe there's this was happening all the time.

I think clearly we know it wasn't.

This was an aberration.

But it does become sort of a rallying call for anti-war movement and others who are saying, look, we're committing more crimes.

I would add to, you know,

Americans have committed war crimes.

I mean, most wars have some crimes and oftentimes they don't get as much publicity.

But this one, you know, they have pictures that are circulated.
