Really, are you sure Hollywood doesn't influence acts of violence?

A news report today demonstrated that Hollywood really does influence acts of violence. The US Army has been sending troops into battle pumped up on Wagner's "Ridge of the Valkyries" which is exactly how the movie "Apocalypse Now" begins. I wonder why they didn't choose Samuel Barber's "Adagio for Strings" that was used in "Platoon"...
