Because this article by Mac Owens--who was one of the first, months ago, to bring to our attention Kerrys testimony in 1971--generated so much response just over a week ago, he has written another in which he takes up these three points in favor of Kerry: 1) Kerry spoke the truth about the Vietnam war—it was brutal and unjust and atrocities were common; 2) Kerry had every right to criticize the war, especially since he had been there; and 3) In his April 1971 testimony, Kerry did not call all U.S. soldiers war criminals but merely relayed the charges of others.
One thing very few people have focused on regarding Kerrys treasonous activities in 1971. That is that he was still legally a memeber of the military at that time. As a reserve officer, he had several more years on his commitment (as an inactive reservist)and therefore he should have been prosecuted under UCMJ for a host of violations.
