I watched No End In Sight last night, and I have to say I was blown away by how potent this movie was. There is an obvious bias that the movie take, but in reality it might be the same bias that the facts take (thank you Rob Courdry via The Daily Show). After seeing this movie I am left with two thoughts. Either the planners of this war are retardedly incompetent or they wanted the reconstruction of Iraq to be a complete failure. It is hard to find sources that you can take seriously and/or honestly about the Iraq war and I think this documentary is has achieved both.
One side note, the proponents of this war in Iraq have always hammed up the idea that if you are against the war then you somehow are against the troops. I think one of the most successful parts of No End In Sight is its ability to show empathy for so many involved and yet still be able to ask the tough questions. In thinking about the troops and the Iraqi citizens I will leave you with the lyrics of Bob Dylan’s “Only a Pawn in Their Game.”
But it ain’t him to blame
He’s only a pawn in their game.
