Bruce Willis Supports the Troops
According to Ace of Spades and RightFaith, the pro-military actor, Bruce Willis, will be making a movie righting the wrongs of MSM bias regarding the war in Iraq.
Bruce Willis comes out fighting for Iraq’s forgotten GI heroes (via Times Online):
ANGERED by negative portrayals of the conflict in Iraq, Bruce Willis, the Hollywood star, is to make a pro-war film in which American soldiers will be depicted as brave fighters for freedom and democracy.
It will be based on the exploits of the heavily decorated members of Deuce Four, the 1st Battalion, 24th Infantry, which has spent the past year battling insurgents in the northern Iraqi town of Mosul.
That’s the Deuce Four of Michael Yon fame.
Willis attended Deuce Four’s homecoming ball this month in Seattle, Washington, where the soldiers are on leave, along with Stephen Eads, the producer of Armageddon and The Sixth Sense.

“I am baffled to understand why the things I saw happening in Iraq are not being reported,†he told MSNBC, the American news channel.
He is expected to base the film on the writings of the independent blogger Michael Yon, a former special forces green beret who was embedded with Deuce Four and sent regular dispatches about their heroics.
There is a lot of good, solid info in the news article referenced here. However, I like Bruce Willis and I will definitely add this movie to my list of ones I will actually see in the movie theaters.

I think its great. Its about time Someone does something to show the world what REALLY is going on in Iraq. Makes me nuts when hollywood bashes things and still has no problem profitting off it, ie the movie Syriana and such. Thank you Mr Willis for breaking the mold of BS in hollywood
