] as realistic as possible and carry the images of war and
] the effect that war has on people," he says. "If you are
] in a war, your population shouldn't just eat their dinner
] and watch sanitized images on TV and video games produced
] by the technological whizzes in the Pentagon and say,
] 'This is war.' No. You really need to show every family
] what your men and women are going through. That's
] important because the families [of dead soldiers] are
] going to be the only ones who see those gruesome images
] when they get the bodies. How about the rest of the
] American population? How are they going to appreciate
] their sacrifices? . . . If you leave it to politicians,
] you won't see anything."
