But there are larger ironies here: first‚ that all of the sniper’s Free State enemies are‚ in a sense‚ his brothers‚ for they had been comrades in arms fighting for the same cause; second‚ that all men are brothers as descendants of Adam and Eve. When they fight‚ they become Cain and Abel. No doubt‚ the IRA sniper now wonders about the identities of the turret gunner‚ the old woman‚ and the person

    Clint Eastwood makes American sniper the number seven on my top favorite movies. I think the story of Chris Kyle is the most powerful U.S military story I ever read and seen. This movie’s about a Texas man who always dreamed of becoming a cowboy and got bored and wanted to join the fight against terrorism. He goes to Iraq and saves US lives with his dangerous accuracy.
