Nobody is immune.Obviously there is no other way due to the problems there but if you think the native population is going to love the military, it's a pipe dream. If you think abuses don't happen, that is wishful thinking.There's nothing wrong with a movie portraying that if they want to. If you don't want to watch, you don't have to. But it's always wise to keep your eyes open instead of just feeding yourself with the information that personally pleases you.
If there were insurgents infiltrating the city that I'm living in, and killing people wantonly, then yes I would want army presence here, is that even a question? what's the alternative? let terrorists have a field day? The army is protecting its borders, they wouldn't be there if there was no terrorism in the first place, I'm sure the soldiers would rather be with their loved ones than to be be stationed in hostile environment where their lives are in constant danger. If you think every abuse case is true, that is also wishful thinking.
Let's not kid ourselves here, the bad guys here are the terrorists, not the army.
