This was a difficult movie for m...Well done, J Neo! This was a difficult movie for me to watch. In fact, I kept falling asleep after the three weathermen blew themselves up. I finally had to tune in earlier in the evening to stay awake and see it through.<BR/><BR/>The footage in this movie from the Vietnam war, where our soldiers were shooting innocent villagers in the head three, four five times, as if for fun or good measure, really made me sick, and gave me pause to try to understand the weathermen.<BR/><BR/>Their principles were on the right track. The government depended on the "out of sight, out of mind" to put the American people to sleep. The footage was what ended the war in the end.<BR/><BR/>Today, we see nothing of the wars we engage in so that the Americans can stay asleep. But once you see this footage, you have to be outraged to know that we are paying for genocide around the world.<BR/><BR/>In fact recently, I heard Congress speaking about how we now have 732 mercenary companies operating in 137 countries around the world, and I realize that we are in deep shit.<BR/><BR/>I would not be surprised if this Mumbai scene were not made up of mercenaries trained at The School of the Americas, or in Pakistan where we fund them to train. I often wonder if they are actually training children from birth to commit to suicide bombing as the climax in their life goals.<BR/><BR/>The CIA are a pretty sick group. And so, our American government supplies them with our money to reek havoc all over the world, and now America is having done to it what we have done to others, including Russia.<BR/><BR/>We are reaping what we sowed. But there are innocent, dupe-able, Americans who haven't a clue and as they face financial ruin, they may also have to face internal civil wars and bombs and all sort of things we have caused other countries to feel, and by our own hands.<BR/><BR/>Can Obama stop these trends in violence from hitting the America people and still continue to fund the mercenaries around the world? I don't think so.<BR/><BR/>Can the youth of today dare consider terrorism as an option? I don't think so.<BR/><BR/>I think we have to stop investing in beliefs and start investing in language to generate the ability for language to be used to get our needs met, and hopefully gain the forgiveness of our fellow men in helping to bring us back to an age where America stood on principles of Ethics, Logic and Passion, where EVERY PERSON matters. Where EVERY PERSON makes a difference.<BR/><BR/>Right now we are in a penal economy playing gotcha politics as our economic standing plummets into ruin. What good is that?Davis Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103476291153046742noreply@blogger.com
