Chapters 11-12

In chapters 11 and 12 i thought that it was very, very disturbing. The whole thing about the soldiers and how they were happy about how they killed everyone in the whole village this time no survivors i almost lost it. The fact that they were only doing that because they don't have a straight mind to think clearly is beside the point. When they said commander i thought wow if these guys are this ruthless think about the one who is leading them! As we kept talking about that conversation, i was just thinking about how they were feeling hearing this, in real life as Ishmael did. It would devastate me to hear about hundreds of people being slaughtered. And what was with the bananas, then that guy asking them to carry some for him, what is that i would have been carry your own bananas you want them so bad you carry them! all in all this was a pretty awkward feeling chapter.

I also found that it was very disturbing when they said that they killed everyone in the village and no one was left. I had no idea how they could even do that even though they were completely brainwashed.
