Millitary brainwashing on an Island.
Kill someone/eachother on Command.
that was the plot for a densel washington movie... i've forgoten the name.. but his unit is brainwashed and used to perform assasinations and take the blame so no one's the wiser.
this guy watches too many movies lol.
plus that crapy lightning effect got annoying after 00:01
The Manchurian Candidate.... The version wtih Densel Washington was a remake of an old 1950s(?, not sure) movie. A good thriller by the way, very well put together.
Yes, the guy who made the video in question is a twat. I urge any of you to read...
An Intimate History of Killing: Face-to-Face Killing in Twentieth-Century Warfare - by Joanna Bourke. Written by a woman from the UK. Well written and researched.
She discusses something similar at length in the book. The USMC or any other military organisation does, to use such a crude term, "brainwash" people to a very limited extent. All it is, is training, extensive training and drilling to make sure the soldier is an effective one. To say that the USMC is comprised of the dregs of society is laughable. It's also incredibly stupid.
To any former or current marines or anybody else out there who are getting pissed off at the producer of that video, write the young man off as ignorant.
