We are all too small

Among the reports returned by the 5 agents who went to Venezuela to investigate, only one proved that he was not responsible, but retaliation still occurred. Although it is impossible to prove its correctness and evaluate the judgment of the president's cabinet, when we ourselves are in Rachel's situation, we will feel how small we are. We often say that personal interests must be sacrificed for the benefit of the country, even if it is against justice, depravity of morality, and blasphemy of the truth, we must not hesitate. But just like the little person like Rachel revealed in this film, we have been trying to figure out her heart from the beginning to the end, watching her experience. She did what she was supposed to do, but she suffered pain she didn't deserve. It seems that as long as everything is linked to national security, any law or draft must make concessions. It turns out that each of our people has a national yoke that cannot be removed. At first I thought it was the ruthlessness of the law, but this ruthlessness can be extended to the interests of the entire country. As long as the country’s minions are involved, even the laws and drafts used to protect us lose their meaning. Each of us is surrounded by an invisible high wall. We can only exercise our rights within the scope. If we cross the line, we will suffer persecution, just because we are too small compared to the government.
