VIDEO | The Ground Truth: "A Cinematic Call to Arms"
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/101106F.shtml
"The Ground Truth: After the Killing Ends" takes an unflinching look at
the training and
dehumanization of US soldiers, and how they struggle to come to terms with
it when they come back
home. This film overrides familiar images of heroic soldiers in battle and
their overjoyed
returning faces as they reunite with their families with one effortless
stroke. Instead, we see a
scenario that includes illness, amputation and injury, depression and
post-traumatic stress
disorder (PTSD), of which Iraq has become a fertile breeding ground. While
America's poor treatment
of veterans is not news to most, "The Ground Truth" makes it so personal
and real, it is impossible
to dismiss its characters simply as war statistics.
