Voices of Iraq
This movie made me angry, it made me cry, and it made me aware of the lived experience of many Iraqi people. While the media coverage tends to report on the high profile situations, it is the daily experiences of people that give a sense of reality to the War On Terror. When I can understand how the war affects the average person, I can truly begin to identify and empathize with their concerns.
After seeing this movie, I was reminded again about the natural human desire for freedom and the hope for the chance to create a life without fear of arbitrary punishment or destruction.
The fundamental ideals of the USA are truly beautiful: Freedom from compulsion, equality before the law, individual rights, freedom of religion. Although it can be argued that the US violates them from time to time, it is also true that they resonate with our very human soul.
Thank you to the courageous people of Iraq who are fighting and dying to create freedom and individual rights for their people. it is a beautiful thing!
