Superpower 2 - United States Invasion of Iraq Scenario - Video
Its back to the future, military-style, now that the film American Sniper, which may or may not be completely accurate, about a war created for completely false reasons, is creating almost as much controversy as the invasion of Iraq did in the first place.
Back in 2003, White House-fueled Iraq mania had grown to such a fevered pitch that it was even considered unpatriotic to disagree with a full-scale invasion of Iraq. Senators caved, Colin Powell caved and media caved to the arrogance of a White House run by Dick Cheney for fun and profit.
But now we know better, no?
No.
Its nearly 12 years after the Iraq war began, and suddenly its unpatriotic to even have a negative opinion about a movie about the war.
American Sniper, in case you havent seen it, is about American sniper Chris Kyle, portrayed by Bradley Cooper, who picked off 160 Iraqis or 160 Iraqi terrorists, depending on your point of view.
The film itself has set off rounds of celebrity sniper fire via social media, and those celebs are now feeling the wrath of the public for disagreeing with the movie.
Seth Rogen, who doesnt take crap from anybody, even went scared rabbit on us after he tweeted, American Sniper kind of reminds me of the movie thats showing in the third act of Inglourious Basterds.
Followers and other strangers went berserkers, and he apologized, saying, My comment about the movie was not meant to have any political implications.
Yes, it was. He was saying he thought Sniper was a lot of propaganda. The fact that a Nazi-propaganda movie was showing in the background of Inglourious Basterds wasnt the point of his tweet. Even Michelle Obama weighed in, saying that too many depictions of veterans are caricatures, while Sniper is the real deal.
