The good guys are using IED's.

The bad guys have imprisoned much of the population.

The good guys are using guerrilla tactics.

The bad guys are trying to occupy a land not theirs.

The good guys get stronger and more determined by the deaths of loved ones.

The bad guys are using propaganda.

The bad guys have awakened an instinct to protect the homeland by the indigenous population.

The good guys don't flinch at giving their lives for the insurgency.

Remind you of anything?

Only this time we aren't the good guys.

2. Yet so much classic Zappa footage languishes in the vaults.
It brought up some good points, but christ, what an awful film. :)

7. It's on Directv's hi-def movie channel.
They'll be playing the crap out of it all month.

This might be a good thing because... just maybe... Some folks might just put the obvious things together.
