Mosul

In the final moments of “Mosul,” the true nature of the conflict becomes clear. Major Jasem and his squad, composed of former police officers, fought not just to combat the militants but to protect their families and rebuild their city from devastation. Jasem’s hope and moral conviction are exemplified in his compassionate action of helping orphaned boys and his refusal to seek help from outside powers like the Americans, whom he views as destructive forces that only leave chaos behind. The revelation that many of the militants were once former police officers—arrested and then betrayed by those they fought against—adds a layer of tragedy and complexity to their mission. Jasem’s transformation from aiming to arrest criminals to killing them was driven by the need to save their families from execution and destruction, marking an unavoidable shift in the brutal realities of war. Ultimately, the film ends on a somber yet hopeful note, emphasizing that true victory lies in reclaiming humanity and hope amidst chaos. Jasem’s unwavering belief that rebuilding and healing can begin only after wiping out the terror highlights the sacrifices made by those who fight not for revenge, but for peace, love, and dignity in a broken land.}
