A few months ago when they were at McDonald's with West Actress , I heard Level talk about this movie, but I didn't really look for it. Coincidentally, Foun invited me to respond to his impressions a few days ago ( http://dou.bz/2IY1nz ), which motivated me to watch this movie. I never expected to be able to see modern Chinese history, the history of human illness and even the "Genesis" in it.
When Brody rushed back from the interrogation room to the boss's office for the first time, she said angrily: It's unconstitutional! The boss answered her: Helen, if those bombs go off, there will be no fu*king Constitution.
Yes, this is one The choice of ten million lives and a thin constitution. It is self-evident which is lighter and heavier. A beast would ignore the ten million lives and dare not put aside the cold constitution at that moment for a while! Okay, let me nag you like an old man...
If I were an old man, I would tell you that in my short life, billions of people have lived on this earth. Under the barrel rule of Jiquan, they were enslaved and tortured by "own" country, "own" talisman, which claimed to bring them liberation and dignity, and tens of millions of people died miserably. Some countries just died In less than four years, more than one-fifth of the population was extinct. For the collective lofty goal, people are enslaved and others are enslaved; people are killed and others are killed. Including one's own relatives, friends, and neighbors. Such a world can no longer be described in words. If there is anything worth expecting from mankind; if there is any reason for God not to eliminate this world, it is the Constitution of the United States of America. ——Without relying on this, there is no way to retreat to freedom.
You may have forgotten the history, but at least I still remember it. Now you ask me, exchange 10 million lives for a word in the Constitution of the United States? I would say: "No! Ten million! One hundred million! Ten billion people will not change!"
If the United States cannot defend the sacred Constitution, then she will be worthless! She should be cursed to endure the same fate of those extreme spring countries! If a Minzhu's United States is trying to sell the constitution for 10 million people, 100 billion people in the name of the American people, then it should be destroyed 100 billion times by terrorist organizations! If all the American people agree with their own words that hurt the constitution in order to save their lives, then they deserve to go to hell! Their slaughter, their wailing and wailing are not worthy of any human mercy, just like the Israelites cursed by Isaiah!
A great nation will never be destroyed by the invaders. A great nation will only be buried by its own hands, and will only be tied to the altar of enslavement by its own hands. Thousands of nations that cannot be destroyed by the invaders have been destroyed by their own people and their own righteousness. Yes, the Japanese killed tens of millions of us, but so what? ! It is not the aggressor who truly destroys this nation, and truly turns it into an abomination that devours its own relatives. It is no longer a human being but a demon. It is precisely the liberator and the hero of the nation who defends the nation and resists the invaders. ! ! Just as Yusuf replied after H’s advice on success or failure on Wednesday night: "You'll be a hero."
When this hero came,
he asked us to give up untimely things for the survival of this nation and for the people. System restrictions. Just as H said to the general when he asked for authorization: Future of this country is in your hands. Lose the committee. Yes, since there are heroes, what do you have to commit to? This is not the time to gently demand the system, or to carefully observe whether it is constitutional. What is needed now is iron-and-blood! Need to be as ruthless as the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves!
When this hero comes,
he will even attack those who are just not cruel enough. If you are not cruel enough, if you are still talking about the rules when facing the enemy, and there are some taboos, if you are not completely "unlimited", then you are not worthy of this sacred mission, then you should be punished. Therefore, the first person H to beat in the interrogation room was not a prisoner, but a military interrogator who was so wretched, weak, and limited in front of him.
When this hero comes,
people in this society are no longer independent individuals, but only represent an identity and a symbol. Brody returned to the interrogation hall after finishing the dispute over the constitution from the office. She found that the black soldier had silently removed the name tag from his clothes. The hero tells us that we are no longer ourselves, making us unwilling to face that weak self. We are the pillars of society, a part of saving the country, a soldier, a screw, a symbol, and a duty! It's a lot of things, except for ourselves, except for being a person. When a hero represents the people, there is no sin or innocence, as long as it is for the good of the people, everything is right. Just like H said to Yusuf on Wednesday night: What I'm doing here is good for my people, if I get the result, if I save them. He pointed out so playfully and philosophically: "You see, there is no H and Younger. There is only victory and defeat. The winner gets to take the moral high ground, because they get to write the history books. The loser just loses. "Yes, there is no H or Younger. There are only winners and losers! Only the victor writes history! And the winner can win the victory in any way! How familiar is this tm! ——"The people! Only the people are the creators of history!" The United States has never been lower and sadder than this moment. Just one terrorist and only three nuclear bombs can easily make the irreplaceable United States of America in human history no longer care about whether it stands on the side of justice. If there is only victory and defeat, let the United States choose victory. Who needs to care about right and wrong?
When this hero comes,
He will teach us coherently, how our enemy is not the most important thing, the most important thing is ourselves, one of every great people who undertakes the mission. It is "we" who need to undergo the baptism of the grid. Just as H said to Brody in the toilet: It's not about the enemy. It's about us, our weakness. We're on the losing side, Helen. We're afraid, they're not. We doubt, they believe. (Hellen said :We have values.) And our values have cost us how many lives? It's not that guy over there. He is not the problem. You are! Comrades! The Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous moment! We are on the losing side!! The reason for all this is because we are weak and our enemies will not, because we are indecisive and our enemies are determined. At this moment, the tenderness and weakness of our petty bourgeoisie has caused the disintegration of the cause of Gechan! remember! Gecha! No-yes-please, guest, eat, dinner! ! So the problem is not that arcade enemy. He is not the problem, you are! ! !
When this hero comes,
He so graciously took over the mission that we couldn't afford and that we were ashamed to undertake and had to complete. Just like when the commissioner of the president pointed a gun at H, H said: "Who's gonna do this dirty work for you?" The hero has no hesitation in taking over the lives of us weak people who dare not face directly, and using one person's sacrifice to complete the liberation of a society. . Think about it, didn’t it mean to take over such a dirty work for this country to complete the frontline of killing the rich and helping the poor? Didn't those weak and useless scholars acquiesce in allowing the hero to take over this "dirty job" that they were too embarrassed to face? right! Is it worth it for a fairer society, for China, and for resolving the injustice that has prevailed over the millennia? Although it’s a little bit "unsatisfactory" and a bit "bloody", for the sake of most people, just let them Just do what they have to do.
When this hero came,
he was so self-sufficient and self-serving. Any openness with the people he "serves" for is considered stupid. When these people speak for the "people", they don't tell the people the truth. The people in the film clearly know the critical situation of the situation, knowing that there are only three days, but there is no second plan if the terrorists do not tell the address during these three days. Think about it, don’t they bet the lives of 10 million Americans on their cruelty that will work? In the end, relatives of these people had the opportunity to enter the underground nuclear defense bunker, but the others did not even have the minimum right to know.
When this hero comes,
he looks so extraordinary, you will find that he is always right, he is always so grand and smiling. Think about it, there are three nuclear bombs that will explode in tens of hours, and among a bunch of people with gloomy faces, Mr. H, who is always smiling, is able to manage such a strategy and stay relaxed. I strongly demanded that he be given a cigarette, with a cigarette in my right hand and a akimbo with my left hand, and immediately I can sink the Emperor Qinhuang and fall into Hanwu.
When this hero comes,
He will enjoy all the privileges he wants. Such as exemption from complying with the law. Yes, it's not just that he doesn't comply with the law of "no interrogation is allowed." He can kill anyone during the interrogation, such as another innocent American citizen, just to make the interrogated feel that the hero can do anything. come out! Do you think he will be tried afterwards? No, that was just an excuse Brody's boss used to comfort her. Heroes can easily ignore any rules, even the security restrictions of a forbidden area that affects the lives of 10 million people. "I want my wife to send me food"-OK! Then the law must be released!
When this hero comes, the
weak will be puzzled. The hero will make you feel vague about many questions, and then point you to a way to no longer doubt, one that is so simple and focused no longer by unrealistic thoughts. The road to confusion. He will make you blur: the difference between sticking to the rules and supporting the enemy. When H wants to cut Jehan's meat and Brody stops it, H asks: You want me to win, or you want him to win?—Any restriction on the rules will inevitably be a manifestation of the enemy's position. The weak will also gradually blur the question of who is responsible for what, for example, for torture, is it the thugs who should be responsible or the beaten? When entering the interrogation room for the second time, Brody said to Yusuf: He's not going to stop. Why are you letting him do this?--Yusuf replied: Why are you letting him do this?
When this hero came,
he The most passionate thing is to allow the weak to break through the ego and get the sublimation of the soul in the practice of grid control. This is why H chooses Brody as his assistant, and this is why in the last scene, when H asks to use the child to torture Yusuf for the second time, H must ask Brody to bring the child in. Brody asked: Why me?--H answered: Cause if you can do it, then anybody can. ...Tell me I can do this. ...Justify me. Tell me it's okay.
When this hero came,
he had a bad temper. If he couldn't meet his requirements, he would make the problem worse for you. When H first came, Yusuf had already been arrested; when H's request could not be met, he walked over and released Yusuf in such a leisurely manner. A suspect in a major case was released. Who gave him this power? --No. Just because his request has not been met, because he feels that other people do not respect his work, so he wants to make things worse than before he came. Just like when Mr. Sutra discovered that the German people could not provide the loyalty he wanted, he ordered the destruction of all German industrial facilities: because if the Germans could not win a great victory, if the Germans did not have true loyalty, they should Going back to an age worse than before choosing me, they should go back to the Stone Age, they should be destroyed!
When this hero comes,
He always expands his power unconsciously step by step. do you remember? When H interrogated Yusuf for the first time, he cut off a section of his finger and was tortured by the soldiers. What did he say with a smiley face at this moment? ——"OK, no more fingers!" Remember the sentence he said the most? You have to say it every time at the beginning? ——I just want him to “believe” I have no limit. When he asked Yusuf’s wife to come out, he said Just want him to “believe”. When he asked to provide the child to him, he also said: Just let him see them. Let him see them with me. ...Yusuf has to “believe” H will do anything (said by the presidential commissioner). Then-the prisoner Will explain. But the fact is: he chopped off almost all of Yusuf's fingers one by one; he killed Yusuf's wife; he grabbed the child, when Brody said: "Yusuf has believed (believe) you will hurt the child." H Answer: "Faith is not enough, he has to know it. (Brody: He know it.) Knowing it is not enough, he has to see it." Didn’t anyone find out that a hero can play with the United States with easy lies again and again Is the administrative system in between applause? -CIA, FBI, military, presidential commissioner. Just for three uncertain nuclear bombs, the US administrative system, the most elite of mankind for two hundred years, was controlled by an Independent Contractor! Listen, how familiar the name of this "independent contractor" is, let me help you recall, every time something mysterious and unthinkable happens in a certain country in Burmen. What is the name of the real practitioner or the real wrongdoer? --Oh, right! Temporary worker!
So if you know that our hero can easily violate his promise a few minutes ago every time, would you still think he will only beat the two children a few times? Yes, for the American people, nothing is impossible. If the bad guy refuses to explain honestly, he will never give up. First binding, what next? The first step is to hit, the second step is to cut your fingers, and the third step? ——Gun the boy? Why not? The commissioner of the president did not say: Brody, this is his two kids against thousands of ours. In case this conscientious terrorist does not "stop" all of this, then come again, the fourth step. ——Yes, he should force his daughter in front of him. Aha! This will definitely make him confess! Then the American people are saved! ! ! ! What a great people, just use a child to win a free new life! ! ! This is what you want, this is the inevitable logic that you give him unlimited power! ! If your strong heart is still trembling, please think about it: Why did you let him do this?
Yes, none of the above happened, because the director feels that for American audiences, seeing two innocent children tied up in front of a pervert is no longer bloody, and it has shown enough cruel logic to make the United States. The audience agrees from the bottom of their hearts: "You can't do this! We're fu*king human beings! Let the bomb go off! We can't do this!". However, he did not expect that there would be such a group of magical citizens on the other side of the earth. They could still stand so strong and face the bleak life, and still firmly believe that "the whole movie has people who should be killed by thousands of swords: The conscientious terrorists, and the crooked female FBI."
If these people believe that all the problems are because we are not cruel enough, because we are not unruly enough. Then they never figured it out, and they didn't want to figure it out, why did Yusuf throw himself into the net? When looking back at the capture video, Brody said: He let himself get capture even though he knew we could torture him. And Brody's boss also guessed: he wanted to get captured so we could torture him just to make a point? Delta, a person who has participated in military operations in the Middle East, of course knows the consequences of being arrested, do you think he has not considered all possible means? Of course he took it all into consideration, yes even sacrificing his wife and children. But why? As Yusuf said to Brody: Just rembember sth, I'm here because I want to be here. I let myself be caught because I'm not a coward. I choose to meet my oppressors face to face. I have no intention to prove Is the fourth zha pan real, is it a nuclear pan, will it explode, but I can be sure that the confession about the first three zha pans is by no means forced. Do you think a religious extremist will give up his faith for his children? To put it another way, if the child's suffering is enough to shake him, he can release the video after the child is confirmed to be sent abroad. No one stipulates that he must announce the incident on this Tuesday. This is not a matter of lack of time at all. Is it a passport issue? Oh my God, he has money and a way to ship nuclear bombs into the United States, but he has no money and can't transport the two kids out of the United States? Taking a step back, would a professionally trained special personnel be so stupid that his wife who is in danger would use a credit card to make purchases at a critical moment? In Brody's words: "I'm all prepared," that's what he said. He counted every step that happened in the interrogation room. Maybe he counted every step except for the gun in the end. Do you think he would be so coincidental that his child would be used to threaten him? Then why did he do this? As he said, this is a necessary sacrifice (sacrifice). I can take it. I deserve it. But why? Why should you let yourself be tortured? Why should you let your children suffer the price of sacrifice? I can't find another reason. The only reason I can think of is atonement. Islam and Christianity have many similarities. I guess that sacrifice is the same as a means of salvation. It is like Jesus through his own hardship to redeem the sins committed by this world. And Yusuf used the lives of himself and his family to complete this atonement because of the swiftness that his country brought to his brothers and sisters. Is he doing the right thing? Of course not. At least he shouldn't bring other people to sacrifice together. Jesus didn't bring dozens or even millions of people to sacrifice together. So I do not agree, but this is the most likely explanation.
When faced with such a person who has left everything behind, actively seeks self-sacrifice, and seeks to be tortured, does torture have any meaning? If he really wanted to blow up the United States, would he be so stupid to take a video to tell you? If it's I, I will blow one up first, and then make a request to see if you agree or not. Would he be so stupid that he ran to the door to catch you, and then forced you to get the answer? ——So, are you still convinced that torture makes the United States safer? Did torture win important information? Did unlimited save the United States?
There is a saying that H is not wrong from another angle. He said: It's not about the enemy. It's about us. We're afraid, they're not. We doubt, they believe. What makes them unyielding , What makes them no longer fear, it is faith! Not success or failure! ——It's time for Americans to think about what to use to resist the Islamic faith! That is by no means a success or failure! Christian civilization is discarding the pillars she was proud of. She is becoming so humble and self-willing. A true believer does not care about success or failure. Even if he fails, he must insist on his own value. The civilized world must tell him. Enemy: A true Christian will fight for his own values, even if he fails, he must perfect the process of fighting. This value is to defend humanity, even if you have to endure the death of all the people you love. A true believer, a true Christian, will not care who wrote history, whether he is called a victor or the people, a true Christian is only responsible to his God. He knew that the earth would split and the universe would perish, and only the remembrance of God would not pass away.
I want to thank foun for giving me the opportunity to watch this movie, and let me understand a biblical story that I have always been unable to accept. It was in the Book of Genesis that God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. My original idea was: I can sacrifice myself, but I cannot force another person to sacrifice. I have argued with many people about this question, but none of them can give me a real answer. They just repeat the same words: obedience, acceptance, grace...until I saw this movie. (Coincidentally, Abraham's sacrifice also took three days.) I think God will not want the lives of our children, but the devil will, and the most obvious way to save our children is to abandon God’s truth, which is to abandon our actions. A part of a person's human nature. Should we do it? ——No, I will not compromise! The Christian world should tell the terrorists: Even if you kill all of us, we will not give up the preservation of our own values. Without these, we are no different from you!
The creed of Christ is never separated from the principles of the rule of law. Dershowitz said in "Letter to Young Lawyer": I once asked a pastor, "How do you feel when you cannot expose a confessor's crimes and have to make moral compromises? He was shocked: "What does'moral compromise' mean? Don't reveal what I heard in confession, this is my professional ethics." He said angrily. No one had ever asked him anything like this. problem. So, shouldn't a lawyer defending criminals also answer: "What does moral compromise mean? It is my professional ethics to defend defenders, regardless of whether they think they are innocent or not." (The original intent of the article has been revised.)
Therefore, for everyone to defend his legal rights and the dignity of the Constitution, we must let the rule of law prevail, even if it is flooded.
...
God created this world in seven days. That day, God created the sea and the land, letting everything "according to its own kind", "God sees it as good. There is evening, and there is morning, which is the third day." This is when the film begins (Tuesday). On this day, everything is in its own way, and good and evil are already distinct. But it took humans three days to destroy this good and evil, make the evildoer appear noble, and make the righteous one shameless. However, God will eventually fulfill us. Three days later (Friday), "God created man in his own image"-Brody, who was struggling on the edge of human nature, shouted: "We're fu*king human beings! Let the bomb go off! We can't do this!"
"God looked at everything and made it very good. There was evening, and there was morning, it was the sixth day."...
