In the wake of the new U.S. scandal in Iraq, the Haditha massacre which involves the U.S. Marines’ unjustified killing of about 25 Iraqi civilians, the United for Peace and Justice, (UFPJ), a coalition of more than 1400 international and U.S.-based organizations opposed to the U.S. "government's policy of permanent warfare and empire-building," issued a press release, likening the brutal massacre in the Iraqi town to My Lai Massacre committed by the U.S. soldiers on hundreds of unarmed Vietnamese civilians in 1968, in the village of My Lai, during the Vietnam War.
