The other day my republican buddies were all ga ga about this movie. They love war movies and talk about the other two movies mentioned in that blog quiet a bit. I will forward this blog link to them

one such being ensures that we experience everything in that realm. most of these games are nothing but sheer propaganda with a very skewed narrative.

I think this will be a big hit among NRI Patriots. Finally, they can move beyond their ineffectual, limpwristed breastbeating against Muslim atrocities on the internets and derive immense visual pleasure from *seeing* men with scary names like Karimullah and Mazhullah get their heads blown away by a heroic sniper hidden hundreds of meters away.

Too bad it is an American sniper, but that's ok. In their minds, they will call him Kuldeep Singh and imagine Sunny Deol pulling the trigger with his 100 gram finger (out of his 2.5 kg arm), in between singing about his dil deewana to a plump Punju lass played by Sonakshi Sinha.

No. The aforementioned comely lass will bring a tiffin box with sarson da saag and makki di roti to the sniper nest during his lunch break. As she lovingly feeds him, extras in the background, playing farmers throw down their ploughs for a little song and dance break, singing mere desh ki dharti.

Oh ya. Sniper is on Paki soil. Comely lass is Pakistani village belle who falls in love with Kuldeep (take that, you love-jihadists!). Instead of joyous farmers singing desh ki dharti, it will now feature jihadists at a terrorist camp, offering namaz, while a sinister score plays in the background.
