GORDON DUFF: “ATROCITY PHOTOS” FROM AFGHANISTAN…ANOTHER GAME
However, the current “scandal” involving, thus far, three photographs of American soldiers with unspecified “dead” is something else entirely. In Vietnam, I saw literally hundreds of such photos. Some were killed by bombing, some by us, some…we had no idea. Whenever there were dead, someone would photograph them.
Without context, the dead in the photos could be anyone, killed by anyone under any imaginable circumstances. In a war where $65 billion in heroin mysteriously gets shipped out of the country, going after a couple of soldiers for taking pictures seems insane.
