“Eye in the sky”
A high-score movie about a moral dilemma.
British and American air forces found a suspect of Somali al-Shabab in Kenya. Because the arrest could not be achieved on the road, the colonels of the two armies decided to carry out precision air strikes after he entered the room, blow up the house and assassinate him. However, launching hell missiles in the air has an excessively large killing radius, which is easy to cause accidental injury to civilians. Just after the British and American high-level officials issued the launch order, a Kenyan girl selling bread temporarily ran into the killing radius. There are differences of opinion at the top as to whether to carry out the bombing mission.
Lieutenant Steve (Missile Delivery Executor): Insist on waiting for the girl to leave the kill radius before proceeding with the assassination. He couldn't bear to end an innocent life with his own hands.
However, the British colonel believed that the extremist forces could leave the surveillance circle at any time, and once they escaped, all pursuits would be in vain. Bombs in the hands of al-Shabaab can kill 80 innocent people. You can't put 80 people at risk for 1 person. (Like when the teacher asked your little train question when you were a child, did it kill a child on the abandoned railway track, or a row of children on the operating track?)
Legal advisers are undecided, blowing up a house can stop a terrorist attack, but deliberately harming a minor violates the norms of international law.
The parliamentary representatives expressed their opposition: if al-Shabaab is allowed to kill, it will create a terrorist attack. The ruling party can get more public opinion support (the ruling party supports anti-terrorism policy). But if a poor little girl is sacrificed for fighting Al-Shabaab, they will be strongly condemned by the public in public opinion. Action therefore entails greater political risk than inaction. (Terrorists and politicians are two tails of the same snake.)
After the various forces dealt with each other, the British colonel made a compromise and decided to let the local spy risk his life to buy the little girl's naan so that she could go home as soon as possible and escape the shooting halfway. However, the spy was discovered by the local police and the plan failed. The British colonel had to adjust the bullet point and try to keep the little girl away from the center of the missile, but even so, it could only help the child reduce the chance of death from 65% to 45% of the survival rate.
All forces have done their best to make this child survive. Captain Steve sent the missile with tears in his eyes. Suddenly, the dust flew up, the girl fell to the ground, and everything was silent.
Fortunately, the little girl escaped, and the girl's parents rushed to rescue her and sent her to the hospital for treatment in time.
At the end of the film, MPs denounced the British colonel and asked him why he was ruthless and ruthless. The colonel replied calmly to her:
"I have taken part in five immediate aftermath of five suicide bombings.
On the ground, with the bodies.
What you witness today with coffee and biscuits is terrible.
What these men would’ve done would’ve been more terrible.
Never tell a soldier he doesn’t know the cost of the war.“”
For the little girl who sells naan, the happiest thing is a hula hoop. Tough guy and tenderness, what he does his best to protect is the figure spinning the hula hoop in the sun, and behind her, on this land, the long-term tranquility and peace. (Professor Snape throws flowers.)
