It is so difficult to watch and I find myself pausing every few minutes to relax and breathe. If just watching it on TV is overwhelming, imagine being there.
In last week's episode, one of the US soldiers said something that stuck in my mind since I sort of already suspected this but now my suspicions were confirmed by actual troops. He said that when young men are fighting in an active war they are afraid and scared at first but soon these feelings changed. Once the fear left them they became very willing killing machines and almost enjoyed it. The Adrenalin soared and they now loved to fight and kill. It was thrilling and exciting for these trained young men.
That is just sick! Testosterone poisoning is the reason and that will NEVER change in the human male species. Men do love violence and it is their nature but when they are told to control it in everyday society they can't do it. Men are responsible for over 95% of the murders in the USA. Jails are full of men, not women. US Troops are given badges and awards for the same behavior but in a different situation. Nothing will change. Humans are the only species that kills their own for no reason what so ever. Religion and politics are all created by men to control the world and maintain total power. They will NEVER STOP!
