Starship Troopers
The movie starts with a
group of high school graduates who enlist in the military to fight against alien
insects. The graduates joined the military for many different reasons: Some
wanted to be heroes, some wanted to show responsibility, some had nothing better
to do, and some were just following their friends.
One young man's experiences were featured throughout the movie. He was the son
of wealthy parents who did not want him to join the military. His parents had
planned for him to attend a special school and become great business minds like
his family. He did not listen to his parents, but joined the military.
In the movie, joining the military meant you were a citizen. In the world today
that would make you a subject to the government. The writer in the movie, however,
redefined the words as we use them today. A citizen was a person with the duty
to fight aliens to protect the rights, property and freedom of the people. The
motto of the military was, entering citizenship required sacrifice and duty.
Today if you join the military you are not fighting aliens or protecting rights
or property, you are merely policemen in a police action to control subjects.
In the movie, to be a citizen was a good thing.
The young man featured in the movie was not an excellent student so he only
qualified for the infantry. He would not be driving high tech rocket-ships or
be working with the officers developing strategy. He would be in the thick of
combat. When he first joined, he made some bad decisions and as a result people
were killed. He decided that he could not handle the pressure and did not want
the responsibility. As he was leaving, however, war broke out and at the last
minute, he decided to stay.
In the movie, the people, including the young man's parents, who were not interested
in fighting to protect rights and property, were killed by the insects. If he
had not decided to stay in the military, he too would have died.
The movie ended when the starship troopers captured the brain bug. This bug
had superior intelligence and when it was captured, the rest of the insects
gave up because they had no leader.
The insects that have destroyed the real world today are the International Monetary
Fund, world bankers. The I.M.F. is an alien force because they are not playing
under the rules of common law. The brain bug, the intelligence behind the I.M.F.
is the enemy today. Just like in the movie, most of the people do not know there
is an alien enemy.
The insects represent the I.M.F. Insects are parasites that live off hosts.
The I.M.F. lives off the people, which do all the substantive production and
work, bleeding the people of their reward.
Starship troopers is about God's people learning to regain their law. That message
is encoded within the scene of this nasty little insect war. Stars signify the
offspring of Abraham. The ship is the vessel that carries Abraham's offspring
(the troopers) into Christian warfare to destroy the aliens. The aliens have
an all-out effort to destroy the Christian Spiritual walk.
