Back during WWII, you saw real men fighting the enemy. With the help of the US media and entertainment, you saw fine propaganda. Captain America punching a Nazi, movies glorifying the US Troops, etc.
Now? Ha, half the time you'll see the news show propaganda tapes the enemy uses to show to their own people! Why don't they make any anymore? Why don't you see that in comics? It's too cliché or "out of taste?"
Look at 300. Those were some badass men. I guarantee you we could solve many world problems with a group of men like that. We would make the dictator of Iran pee his pants. Sadly, times have changed. 20 years ago, the majority of the people would run away if a draft came. The problem is worse today. Many college students, if Iran was coming to attack, would run and plead to join there army in return for their lives.
What we need is “Mortal Kombat” power. Remember Johnny cage? We could use soldiers like him. We need to find the people who killed and beheaded our men. Unlease Cage, and he would do a Fatality move on them. Punching their head off, or ripping their torso off there body. That's what I want to see. Not someone pleading with the enemy that we know is beyond negotiating.
But as Arnold would say, were a bunch of girly men. The media today in general is so embarrassing it's not funny. If they had existed in the 40's, they would be giving interviews to Hitler, apologizing to him that what we do might be confusing? In 60 short years, our world is upside down.
