Although I must admit that the video is touching. True as well. I find it too much of a propanganda thing. You could do the same thing about any
soldier in the world and it will touch you. I personally this video as representative of every soldiers that fight for every nations. Even the
nazies. A soldier will always be respected and honored. At least from it's own country that is.
The only thing I dissagree in it is the word freedom. Although in certain case it might be justifiable. Let's just keep it real here though.
Money = Power = War = Power = Money = ...... not freedom
They do fight for freedom. In their personal achievement and beleif a soldier always fight for the right cause. Only the problem is that sometimes
the cause is just an image on a screen. The truth being very well hidden from that screen itself.
So yes I say Bravo! to these soldiers!!
But please don't use freedom as a war justification. I don't want to live in a future where the word "freedom" is banned or taboo. Just like,
since world war 2 the word "propaganda" used to mean "education". It has been used too much and now today is being associate with bad stuff.
Just cause the nazies used it way too much. Or like that stupid thing calling "french fries", "freedom fries" rofl!! I mean c'mon, you have to
be real dumb to come up with stuff like that whoever that was..... but yet it proves only one thing, and it is looking bad for the word "freedom".
I'm pretty sure that if you research a lot of taboo word, some of them a war related. and yet, soldiers, once fought for this word.
