That is ... terrifying, reminiscent of the apocalyptic firestorms caused by allied firebomb raids during WWII (e.g., Dresden and Tokyo). I would not put something like that past Hegseth and Trump, or even use of so-called tactical nukes.

It's impossible to tell the Selma and Bloody Sunday story if you erase Jimmie Lee Jackson.

It's literally sanitizing the story.

There's also the story of Amelia Boynton. Famously photographed beaten unconscious.

She would reprise her Selma March with President Obama at the age of 109
