The last movie I saw is called Lion for Lamb. It's about Afghanistan War, 2001-present. Has three main personas, a teacher, a senator and a journalist. The senator give to the journalist an exclusive about a new military strategy that started in the same time of the interview. Parallel the teacher who is talking with a student about his absence.
Throught the plot, senador and journalist discuss the possibles disagreements between citizens and government. The senator's idea to give her an exclusive is get support of all the nation. On the other hand, the nation is disagreement with the Afghanistan War. The senator say in the past we, the government, did colosus mistakes,but he has done Whatever it takes!.
In the new strategy, two young student whom was encourage for the teacher to change their life are voluntier soldiers in Afghanistan war. The teacher who never encourage them join into the army. Giving this example to the student who has a special talent, but his regular absence could affect his grades.
In less two hour, few young men survive compling with the new strategywhile the student is watching the news, is thinking. What? Could he decide join to the army,too???
This movie made me burst into tears. Atfer I cry, I think how many families have cried thier eyes out for years. It's very sad know how the government use the younger people to fight a war that the goal is to avoid futures attacks and more die. However, the government send a lot of soldiers; how may of them die. The most ironic thing is men and women die are not american, or they was born here,U.S, and their parents are illigal or resident. Many of them lived in towns where are very violent. Whereas they give their life trying to find a solution from the country. The country go for the same alley, without any direction.
I remember when I was in New York some militars went to Latin neighborhoods high schools looking for new 'voluntiers'. This situation will never finish!

sad movie! actually! I don't like WAR movies. also I don't like WAR . Why happened these WAR ? It's also human egoistic, which is to take another´s properties. We are also heard from news about that WAR, which is an internal WAR to battle against Communism in Afghanistan. It's sad thing. A WAR has many victims that are young and old people and women. Why are they a victim. I don't understand. on the other hand, we are very well known about IRAQ WAR. actually, I want to ask to a warmonger(we know already who it is) For whom is that WAR ? For what is that WAR ? Oil? territory? I don't understand to bring about IRAQ WAR ... so, I don't like WAR movies and WAR!!!!!
