Targets for attack were given the picturesque name of “strategic hamlets.” Bombing raids became “surgical strikes” and the forced movement and impounding of Vietnamese citizens were part of America’s “pacification program” – terms suggesting images of the hospital operating room or a Quaker meeting.’ 865: 277: 717: 407: 386: 570: 261: 766: 745: 685: 206: 355: 642: 631: 620: 510: 475: 609: 598: 1025:

good point. i recommend we rename Disposition Matrix to kill list and put a link to the film's article at the top. the article about the film could use some work/rewrite anyway, it appears to be identical to the imdb entry.
