Generation Kill - Iraq

Back


Aug 2004
What happens when those who've grown up on Hollywood war movies and graphic video games are sent to the frontline?

"It's the ultimate rush -- you're going into the fight with a good song playing in the background," states one soldier. This is a war fought by the first playstation generation. As Rolling Stones journalist Evan Wright explains: "One thing about them is they kill very well in Iraq."

Sloppy...lot of critical thinking falacies. If you are going to make an arguement make it good, otherwise you leave yourself open to rejection. If a good arguement is made with no holes or falacies it is rationally imposible to deny.

This reporter is very Biased. I garuntee you he interviewed many troops, and picked out he morally corrupt men just to inapropriotaly use them as representatives for the troops.

this reporter is sickening me.

I'm enlisting in about a year and am disgusted by how this guy lays out his "facts". not all troops are like that. I am enlisting because of my love for how well off I am, my family, friends and country. I also think the experience and lessons I would learn would be of great benefit to me

There's a restriction on how long your comment can be for a reason, bro. I'd recommend reducing your statement into a shorter, more cohesive format. You know...for "readability".
