Escape from Saddam

I read Escape from Saddam and i must say this short story was very good, its pretty graphic and you feel the realism in pretty much every word. Its one of those stories that make you ponder and think about different situations specially the situations in the Middle East. It crazy how they are forced to join the army or have a very harsh punishment i would say, cruel. Join or not join you will die and its quite a powerful message, families have to endure this!? Nobody should endure this no family should.

i wouldnt say the training was harsh i mean the going through the barb wire, the crawling the live shooting it is intense but i have seen it before im pretty sure marines endure that kind of training too. These men had to be turned from soldiers to devils. The transformation was fascinating though some methods were a little 2 intense. The visits to their family members probably helped out a lot of soldiers cope with the training and the daily life of being a soldier.

This story was one of the best i read i enjoyed it all i learned so much 2..
