So, a bit into the film, when they have found the building/bunker where there is a possibility of Osama Bin Laden being, Joseph Bradley shows her some photos of children playing within the confines of the bunker, and some women A scene five minutes later she says this:
Quite frankly, I didn't even want to use you guys, with your dip and velcro and all your gear beep I wanted to drop a bomb. But people didn't believe in this lead enough to drop a bomb. So they're using you guys as canaries. And, in theory, if bin Laden isn't there, you can sneak away and no one will be the wiser. But bin Laden is there. And you're going to kill him for me.
This woman is a monster, and they way the movie tries to make us sympathise with her is quite frankly disgusting. Thoughts?
