Re: The Most Misunderstood Picture In The World

Yeah, I was really surprised to learn about the back story to this photo, too!
I was born several epochs ago, and was always told that this is a picture of a spy being executed. Learning about the truth of it makes me wonder what else I was misinformed about...

Re: The Most Misunderstood Picture In The World

It really doesn't change much if you know your Vietnam Conflict history. It was well documented that Nguyễn Văn Lém, the man executed was a murderer. But he was also a captain in the Viet Cong.

Here is an interesting read and it's pretty close to 100% accurate.

He was a rapist and the guy who shot him eventually moved to america and opened a restaurant.
