- Summary:
- The Infidel invasion unleashes a celebration of demons in Iraq. One of them, sickened by human vileness, tours the battlefield beside a woman who searches for her loved ones, confident that they survived the daily massacres and mutilations. A hopeless man, reminiscing on his lost loves concludes men and women are enemies from the moment of conception. We besiege, trick, betray, hurt, infect, wound, torture, destruct, and abandon one another. We wait for the next in line. And then, there is always revenge. .
