Propaganda: their lies.
Public information: our lies.
People did what they thought necessary to end that insane war. If Jane deserves hanging then so do those who perpetrated it and who profited from it.
Not so.
Not when you live in a democracy........I would have much much less of an ethical problem with Jane had she gone to the North, renounced her US citizenship, and stayed to fight on in whatever capacity she (or they) found most effective.......
But Nooooooo, she went there, undermined the democratic will of the population as expressed through their government, made the situation of the men fighting for survival on HER behalf worse, then retreated back to her cushy position of freedom, privilege and luxury in the United States.
Outrageous!!!!
Much the same as some of the scum in our own society that do whatever they can to promote the causes of our enemies, while luxuriating in the freedom that our enemies seek to destroy. Absolutely outrageous.....but even they aren't traveling to Afghanistan to offer aid and comfort to the Taliban.........because they have neither the influence (who cares?) nor the balls.
It is long past, but a public hanging for Jane would not have been injustice.
The warriors were only doing what the polity required of them.
