There are always two-sides to a conflict.
It is important to understand your "enemy".
Reality is often painful, but disillusionment is deadly.
I intend to view this film.

It is a sad day when "journalists" providing aid and comfort to the enemy are provided this free (and worse, FAVORABLE!) publicity.

Meanwhile, one of two Navy SEALs killed taking out the terrorist cell who used two mentally disabled women as unwitting suicide bombers has their obituary printed in the same edition of the Deseret News. However, the family of this fallen American hero had to PAY to have that brave man's story reach the public.

I am truly ashamed that the news media has fallen to this despicable and twisted interpretation of freedom of the press, and journalistic responsibility.

Where was the coverage of the event this week featuring the American service members sharing their story of combat and its aftermath. Why is that less newsworthy than treasonous support for the enemy?

SHAME ON THE REPORTERS AND EDITORS for their decisions as to what is worth covering and printing!

It is not treason in this country to doubt our govt's goals, it is actually our greatest responsibility especially in war and especially if we still support the troops. Always we must examine our enemies because we must believe that evil does not exist especially in the biblical black and white sense. Our enemies in iraq were created by bush. the vast majority of those who fight us there are doing so because we invaded their country. we enabled al qaeda, who was not in iraq when we got there, to rally this legitimate rebellion around it for a long time. John believes bush's surge is turning the tide in this war and not the iraqi rank and file of al qaeda created by bush who revolted against their organization, again not because of bush. they revolted because they are secularists in reality even the sunni iraqis. we brought qaeda with us into that country when we destroyed saddams despotic govt. if we do this in any muslim country anywhere we can expect more of the same. we must learn that we can make peace with our enemies in iraq because they are also good people we have not been

These insurgents are the ones that strapped bombs to two mentally handicaped women last week and remotely detonated them in a pet market and a group of school boys. They aren't insurgents, THEY ARE TERRORISTS and they deserve to DIE!! The people that defend these animals are idiotic college brats that have never done anything in there lives.
