Wow. This is disturbing as hell. This happened in a Western country. Over what most Americans would see as a trivial matter.
Want another kick in the pants?
The British Govt just approved the prosecution of soldiers that had to fight that bloody campaign.
This is sad and disturbing.
It's also a warning for the future. It can happen anywhere. It just takes a spark.
