Although, some could say about the ball falling to the floor (from the film) as a kinda pro war argument.
except that movie was really stupid..........
This is such a huge issue because people all over the world are generally more educated than they used to be. Because one country is breaking UN mandate by attacking another country on the grounds that it is breaking UN mandates... someone said "grey" area, it looks pretty black and white to me.
Lets ignore that the Turks killed kurds, lets ignore that Israel is killing palestinians, but lets persecute the Iraqi people for having a dictator, who, by the way, has been pretty docile for the past 12 years.
Lets forget about Noriega, lets forget about Pinochet, lets forget about Nicaragua and lets not report on what is happening in Columbia as we speak.
Lets forget that Afghanistan's opium crop has skyrocketed since we backed the northern aliance and lets forget that democracy is something by the people, for the people. Lets pretend that we can "give" a country democracy through undemocratic means and unsanctioned warfare. Lets forget the burning of the Reichstaag and lets forget that the Mossad warned our government about 9/11 ahead of time, and that they didn't listen. Lets forget about the sh!tty economy to burn trillions in military might.
