, the Israeli soldiers who experienced 1982 also bear endless pain. This year, they were just ordinary young people in their teens and twenties. Ari Folman, a 19-year-old An ordinary soldier, a pawn of a political leader.
The descendants of Jews who had also experienced genocide, faced the massacre of Palestinians in the refugee camps, even though they did not participate in the direct massacre, they just stood by and watched, and even set fire to illuminate the night sky to facilitate the murderers' hunting and killing. What a shameful act of evil.
In the face of layers of percussion and condemnation from conscience, memory chooses to escape and forget. Human nature itself will prevent us from entering the dark side of our psychology. We would rather believe that it was just a strange dream, as if the film was just recording a war movie. , With the in-depth communication between Folman and his comrades, memories that have been suppressed for more than 20 years have emerged bloody.
When memory self-deception fails, collapse comes.
Are you willing to believe that you did the same thing as the Nazis?
Why would a nation that was once persecuted so ruthlessly pass on its pain to another nation...
Some people say that because what they saw was in the form of an animation, it was not shocking enough and not appealing enough, and they gave a general evaluation, which is really nonsense. In a country that is still peaceful today, is it necessary to watch the real scenes of bloody killings to feel the existence of a crisis? The history of aggression against China may be far away from our younger generation. The war in the Middle East is still going on. We are just happy people watching the news in front of the TV.
Folman's recording of the Beirut massacre, as a participant, shows the courage of reflection (although the film is estimated to be glorified and hypocritical in terms of stance). Although such reflections are so weak, someone can stand up and face up to their scars in the history of massacres. The Israelis have done what little Japan dare not do.
This is not a political movie, what it reflects is only the memories of those who participated in the war...
He just wanted to do his best to restore a piece of history
Just like the real picture at the end of the minute, the black head of the little curly-haired boy is telling the people who heard the story before: what we are talking about is not a story!

_ The corpses were lifted from the rubble, and the faces of the victims who were suddenly faced with death were excruciatingly horrifying and outrageous. Groups of Palestinians wept bitterly around the piles of corpses, and shrill cries were heard from time to time. Some survivors later recalled: "It was a hell on the night of the 16th, the sky never got dark, the gunfire never stopped, and people kept screaming." By the morning of September 17th, news of the massacre was everywhere. Word spread that the camp was full of terror, as groups of refugees left Gaza hospitals and fled north, along with about 40 patients.
