Napalm as entertainment for Americans

You cannot make this shit up. Napalm was used to entertain the masses at an air show last month in Maine.

If you’re as old as me or older you will remember the iconic photo of Vietnamese children running and crying as their skin was burned by jellied gasoline called napalm. It was nothing to be proud of.

My husband says he wants to cry because “Now jellied gasoline is entertainment” and he’s older too, and things seem to be getting worse rapidly as the U.S. spirals down into endless sensationalizing of the trappings of war.

A local coordinator for Code Pink Maine recalls an airshow where napalm was used to entertain Americans. Click here to read the gruesome story.
