Rolling Stone has the article ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ Is Osama bin Laden’s Last Victory Over America by Matt Taibbi.

Now we have this movie out that seems to celebrate the use of torture against Arabs, and we’re nominating it for Oscars. Bigelow can say that “depiction is not endorsement,” but how does she think audiences will receive it in the Middle East? Are they going to sell lots of popcorn in Riyadh and Kabul during the waterboarding scenes?

Besides not wanting to see torture scenes, the bottom line, as Taibbi describes it above, is one reason we won’t be seeing this movie.

Perhaps I grew up on too many movies about World War II where we were taught to hate the Nazis because of their use of torture.  I can live with that.  I’d hate to think the next generations will be taught to love America because we use torture.  What is this world coming to?
