That is ingrained forever now I think. Reminds me of something I saw on a movie before I gave up TV. Rules of Engagement where in Vietnam the General guy shots the radio man. Yes.

I would imagine due to the victory of the North Vietnamese, there was not much use for any martyrs there.

I do feel due to the national coverage and pulitzer this photograph got (as soon as I read the opening post on this thread, I knew what photo you were referring to...as did the rest of you) it could definately be used as a tool for future movements...I would imagine it already has to a small degree on numerous occasions. I had never realised how chilling this photo was until I simply stared at it thinking of nothing else but what this man must have been thinking just seconds before this photo.

On a lighter note...Being a communist I could not even imagine dining in this blokes restaurant. Could you comrades?? I would have been constantly looking over my shoulder making sure this bastard did not try to run up and clip me straight away....

Shooting some one in war is one thing, executing a prisoner in the streets... that is murder.

All this Vietnam talk reminds me of the Phoenix Program (http://www.thememoryhole.org/phoenix/)
