"The Secret War": The darkness that the sun can't see

The film records that approximately 20% of female soldiers and 1% of male soldiers in the U.S. military have been sexually assaulted, and only a small number of them can be treated fairly. When news of India's gang rape case was flying all over the world, I occasionally got this film, only to find that it was really a little bit insignificant. The United States, which has always advertised freedom and democracy, can turn a deaf ear to the gang rape of patriotic children, and India, which is still toddling with such a system, is even more predictable. Seeing those female soldiers who have suffered mentally and physically, uttering their own grief and anger in pain, but not getting help from any government agency, I don’t know what politicians who hold high the banner of the first power in order to gain attention by performing performances will do. Impressions.

For those young people who have been so patriotic and fighting for the country, when they are not being abused by the enemy, but by their own life spirit, how vulnerable are the so-called freedom and democracy, and how blind is the so-called country under the rule of law. "They can go to the congressman." After a few female soldiers complained, a female politician made such a ridiculous answer that one of the female soldiers sneered. If even the rape case has to be appealed to by members of Congress, what kind of things will the legal department that spends taxpayers' taxes every year?

In contrast, Indian men can go on a hunger strike to protest in the streets, while American men can only endure silently while crying. If a country cannot even protect its own women, no matter how powerful or advanced it is, it will only be in vain. If the tendency of this film is too obvious, I really don't know how our human tendency should be. I thought that the 2008 American documentary "Food Company" and 2010 "The Good Man Who Saved the World" were tendentious films. It seems that there are so many American tendencies!
