A faith of hope

I don't have the knowledge to question the authenticity of this documentary and I definitely disagree what the US government did around the world in the name of the so-called "liberation" and "anti-terrorism".

But at least the making of this movie gives me a faith of hope, that this country is still one of the best, simply because the government would have no authority to stop people from making this sort of movies, to disclose the dark side of the government, to expose the hypocrisy of the military presence, to criticize the whole policy of anti-terrorism.

The US government may not be perfect, but at least the people should have a faith of hope, and this is what make them proud.

Taxi to the Dark Side quotes

  • Dick Cheney: It is a mean, nasty, dangerous, dirty business out there, and we have to operate in that arena...

  • Himself - Military Intelligence: Americans obviously want to believe that we're somehow more moral than the rest of the world, that for some reason, we have a real strong desire to feel that way, and I think that's eroding, and I don't really know what effect that's gonna have on us. And I think a lot of people have just decided, "Well, you know, it's different after 9/11, we can't be good anymore. We have to, you know, get tough." And so we'll have to see what that does to us.

    Narrator: What do you think?

    Himself - Military Intelligence: I think that's bullshit, frankly. I mean, I think that we still need to try and be as good as we can be. You know?
