Based on the George Crile novel, Charlie Wilson's War stars Tom Hanks as the S.O.B. that trained and armed Al-Qaeda to defeat the Commies in Afghanistan. This film paints him as the hero of the 20th century, yet his policy caused the massacre of millions of civilians in Angola, Cambodia, Nicaragua and other less known killing grounds. Charlie Wilson was instrumental in legitimizing internal American spy networks which later developed into the so-called Patriot Act. This movie is simply New World Order brainwashing and 1984 doublethink. Absolute poison.
