America At A Crossroads: Operation Homecoming Showing On WUNC - Devastating
Edited on Mon Apr-16-07 10:54 PM by Hissyspit
From interviews and writings:

- "'If they're running, they're guilty.' This line had been drilled into us... 'Stop,' I yelled again. He kept running. At that moment, I hated him. I wanted him to die for forcing me to kill him..."

- "Staring down the barrel at another barrel, at that moment, it's kill or be killed. It has nothing to do with what you believe."

- "I tell people we evacuated 7000 people and they don't believe me." -- Iraq War Veterans

- "That's the sign of a decadent civilization. To send young people to go and do and suffer the things that soliders do and suffer and to not care or be aware or pay a price. That's an unforgivable decadence..." -- Vietnam Veteran

That's the line that stuck with me. Excellent film.
