"When you are sacrificing so much, it’s tempting to believe so strongly in the “noble cause,” a belief that gets hardened by the fatigue of multiple tours and whatever is going on at home. But viewing the war only through his eyes gives us too narrow a frame. During my combat tour I never saw the Iraqis as “savages.” They were a friendly culture who believed in hospitality, and were sometimes positive to a fault." - Michael W. May

I haven't seen the film, haven't read the book, nor do I plan to do either. From the little bit of stuff I've seen and read about them and, more to the point, about the reaction to them, the more I see two groups of ultra-polarized opinions and little talk about the all the stuff that remains muddled between. I also get tired of hearing how one group of people is somehow less than another. That's just bullshit and always needs called out. We never learn. - Michael W. May

The version I saw previously was even better: "tyranny" was preceded by the obligatory "Obama." - walt crawford
