The closest we ever were to nuclear war was smack dab in the middle of the Vietnam war, and arguable partially because of the Vietnam war.
On atrocities in Vietnam:
Sure a lot of soldiers are going to deny it. Many are too ashamed, or do not believe what they did was an atrocity. For every soldier who denies it, I'm sure you can find one who doesn't. It's all heresay.
What did Kerry have to gain by making it public anyway? If anything, he was risking a lot of trouble.
