The film has been banned by the US government as it does actually incite fragging (the killing of officers and commanders by ordinary GIs) - as Donald Sutherland's speech at the end of the film suggests.

The film which will be shown on Friday was sent from the Australian group Resistance in the Army (RITA) an organisation agitating for soldiers to dis-enlist in Australia.

The Film is now on underground release in Iraq being passed from hand to hand by US soldiers and also circulating in Fallujah after copies were made by a solidarity activist recently returned from Iraq.

FTA is a vital and rare piece of American anti-war history and a powerful testament to the resistance of thousands of soldiers who refused to fight and even took up the fight against the US Army and Imperialism by actively attacking commanders and then refusing to put down black urban insurrections in the USA.
