Having seen American Sniper, I must confess that it is a good action movie. For being a propaganda film it left plenty of room open for interpretation. I heard someone talking about the film last night say that around 2 million Iraqis were killed in that war as opposed to 150 Americans, of which half were killed accidentally by friendly fire. That doesn't sound like war to me; you would stand a better chance of being injured while shooting fish in a barrel. Apparently the last person Chris Kyle offended wasn't as nice about it as Jesse Ventura.
