4. Yes, that is his cross to bear
He sold his soul and bears a lot of responsibility for everything that's gone wrong since.

13. Lying seems pretty easy for Powell
Especially when he is a member of the clique.



"In direct refutation of this portrayal is the fact that relations between American soldiers and the Vietnamese people are excellent." Later, Powell's assessment would be described as whitewashing the news of the massacre, and questions would continue to remain undisclosed to the public. In May 2004 Powell said to Larry King, "I mean, I was in a unit that was responsible for My Lai. I got there after My Lai happened. So, in war, these sorts of horrible things happen every now and again, but they are still to be deplored." <13>
