The movie 'Platoon' is instructive in that two characters represent the
political spectrum,  one played by Willem Dafoe represents the doves(
Anthony Lewis-O.Stone we should pull out because we can't win) and the
other played by Tom Berenger represents the hawks( we're fighting with
one hand tied behind our backs) with regard to American foreign policy.
This represents the complete political spectrum as envisaged by Oliver
Stone and the so-called liberal media. The notion that the Imperialist
powers had no right to be in these countries is not on the agenda.
