Question

generalisation of war​

Answer 1

Answer:

Columnist Kathleen Parker is concerned that the discovery of a few bad apples among thousands of good U.S. soldiers will cause the world to generalize this behavior to all U.S. soldiers (Commentary, May 5). She quotes a Vietnam veteran who fears that this will become the My Lai of Iraq: "After the My Lai massacre, the peace activists and others began referring to all veterans of that war as `murderers' and `baby killers.'"

Although a few individuals might have referred to all soldiers as murderers, to generalize this to the millions of Americans who opposed the Vietnam war is ridiculous and dishonest.

Why is it that Parker insists that the world not generalize but is happy to do so herself when she wants to denigrate her political opponents?
