The Ballad of Lynndie England
This Article is great. The last line took a moment to sink in and then it hit me like a ton of bricks.

May 13, 2004 · Once upon a time the king came down to the village and told the villagers that there was a monster living across the sea. The king said that an army had to be assembled, to bring across the sea to kill the monster. By Joshua Shelov
