AMEN!! I thought the show was well done. The dramatizations were not maudlin; they showed the fear, desparation and eventual sadness. The one interview I though was interesting was Victor's wife. She admitted she was angry with him for essentially giving up. She said she didn't think he realized just how much his family would miss him. That was the saddest thing, I think, because he had a chance to get out, and didn't, and Harry died because he decided to stay with him.
I felt sorry for the Chinese man who made the decision to leave Victor and Harry in the stairwell. He still felt guilty after all this time, but Victor's wife didn't think badly of him. She knew that he made the decision that was right for him, and he survived.
We also need to WAKE UP--that's 100% of us, not just some.
We need to start putting the blame in the right place.
We need to listen to TV news with filters. When they say, "It was another day of horrible tragedy in Baghdad, two soldiers died ____ and two soldiers died _____." We need to think that most probably seven or eight people died on our own State's freeways from being drunk, and those in Baghdad lost THEIR lives fighting for freedom and to make the World a better place!
And...
WE NEED TO GROW SOME "PERSPECTIVE" BRAIN CELLS! This will help us put our votes behind the RIGHT people, so we can take the gloves off and fight these IslamoJerks and WIN "HAND"ILY!
Can you tell I'm just fed up??? You're right!
