Thread Name: Vietnam war demos by soldiers DOCU
Subject: RE: Vietnam war demos by soldiers DOCU
Guess I was referring to the "recent" doco of soldiers getting hyped up to go into battle (i.e. kill the Govt's purported enemies) via the violence of heavy metal music - and how USEFUL that must be to top brass ... coz it doesn't allow much room to THINK about your actions, or your commander's actions, or your Govt's actions.
So, does anyone think there COULD be a similar resistance today in the armed forces, especially after all the flow-ons from 9-11 (and consequent tightening of civil liberties)?????
