"The history of any country, presented as the history of a family, conceals the fierce conflicts of interest (sometimes exploding, often repressed) between conquerors and conquered, masters and slaves, capitalists and workers, dominators and dominated in race and sex. And in such as world of conflict, a world of victims and executioners, it is the job of thinking people, as Albert Camus suggested, not to be on the side of the executioners." - Howard Zinn

pretty good. i liked the parts where you heard more about the goings on day-to-day, the medication swapping, cuban cigars, etc. Makes it more human than the traditional attrocities-of-war stories on cnn or pbs. the insert shots of the beers/cigarettes, were awkward, though. and the stock pictures, sentimental music fading up at the end was a little much, and bordered on melodramatic cheesiness.
