What is Kill Anything That Moves: The Real American War in Vietnam (American Empire Project) about?

Based on classified documents & first-person interviews, a startling history of the American war on Vietnamese civiliansThe American Empire ProjectWinner of the Ridenhour Prize for Reportorial Distinction°°° Americans have long been taught that events such as the notorious My Lai massacre were isolated incidents in the Vietnam War, carried out by just a few "bad apples." But as award-winning journalist & historian Nick Turse demonstrates in this groundbreaking investigation, violence against Vietnamese noncombatants was not at all exceptional during the conflict. Rather, it was pervasive & systematic, the predictable consequence of official orders to "kill anything that moves."Drawing on more than a decade of research into secret Pentagon archives & extensive interviews with American veterans & Vietnamese survivors, Turse reveals for the first time the workings of a military machine that resulted in millions of innocent civilians killed & wounded-what one soldier called "a My Lai a month."
