The Fog of War

Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara is a luminous personal details of perlious 20th century landscape ridden with conflicts that continue to till this day. His best lesson in this movie was this: "What makes us omniscient? Have we a record of omniscience? We are the strongest nation in the world today. I do not believe we should ever apply that economic, political, or military power unilaterally. If we had followed that rule in Vietnam, we wouldn't have been there! None of our allies supported us; not Japan, not Germany, not Britain or France. If we can't persuade nations with comparable values of the merit of our cause, we'd better reexamine our reasoning." Sounds too much like Gulf War 2? At least Bush Sr. was wise enough to know his limit. But Bush Jr. is not wise and alraedy flaunting another war with Iran, which openly flaunts its nuclear capability these days.

To all people who still supports Iraq War and America rushing into another war, watch this documentary and contemplate, as Mr. McNamara noted, "I think the human race needs to think about killing. How much evil must we do in order to do good."
