The Afghan war effort, set on an equal playing field with the Soviet Union, was adapted to overcome the Soviet Union and take back the Afghanistan peoples homes. Phase III. AnalysisThe movie Charlie Wilsons state of war takes place from 1979 to 1989 and tells the account of how the biggest covert subroutine in America happened. Charlie Wilson, a Texas congressman, who, with help, raised the necessary funds necessitate in order to give Afghanistan weapons that could help throw out the assail Soviet Union forces. Based on a line up story the movie begets to the circumstances and realistically portrays the main character, Charlie Wilson, and the outlets that lead to the freedom of Afghanistan. The take on shows the immenseness of what happened and how it changed future events. Charlie Wilsons struggle described the proceedings from 19 years ago that shaped the agency events have happened today. The movie focused on the funds, and how they were gathered, that gave the Afghan fighters the weapons and training that they needed. Congressman Wilson, with the help of others, raised the governments budget for the Soviet-Afghan war from a few million to 750 million. With a new flood of money and weapons to help in their fight, the Afghanistan people were armed and inspired to fight the invading Soviet Union forces. As a reward for making it possible to drink mow the Soviet Union, Congressman Wilson was given the stinger tube that shot down the first enemy aircraft. Something near the events of the film that has to be noted is the adjoin that the events of the past had on our present. Had America not interfered, Afghanistan would have been taken over by the Soviet Union which could have lead to them eventually domineering Pakistan and the stores of oil. Allowing the Soviet Union to take go steady might have prevented the fighting we have with the countries in the Middle East now. How of all time, allowing both Afghanistan and Pakistan to fall into the transfer of the Soviet Union would have meant that we would surrender the supply of oil Pakistan held. Charlie Wilsons War is a film of importance, showing scenes of diachronical events that have come to enjoin t he way both Afghanistans and Americas people live. Based on a true story, Charlie Wilsons War holds several historical events which should be noted. Inspired to help the refugee lieu in Afghanistan after reading an Associated Press report, Congressman Wilson began to help underframe funds that would allow the Afghan people to fight the invading Soviet Union. Elected to be on the House Appropriations Subcommittee of Defense, Congressman Wilson was able to request, and receive, a doubled budget for the Afghanistan war. With the help of both politicians and private citizens, Congressman Wilson was able to raise enough funds to support the Afghanistan war effort. This covert operation, named function Cyclone, was the largest covert operation to ever happen in the history of the CIA. later ten years of fighting the Soviet Union, Afghanistan became the first country to ever defeat the Soviet Union. The Clandestine Services organization gave the Honored fellow award for the first time to a citizen, Charlie Wilson, for his efforts in the Afghan War. The historic events in this film shaped many peoples opinion about the smear in Afghanistan. The war in Afghanistan 19 years ago resulted in opposing political views in the United States each having valid grounds for dowery or not helping the situation in Afghanistan. The placement I agree with would be the people who were for supporting Afghanistan in their fight against the Soviet Union. Giving The United States a valid occasion to support Afghanistan with a covert operation and giving more than 5 million as funding, would hide the fact that we were are in no way friendly towards Russia. Another reason for the U.S. to intervene would have been that we are a nation who stands for justice and the massacres and other atrocities happening in Afghanistan demanded our attention. In helping Afghanistan we also helped ourselves, not only did we get the satisfaction of seeing the Soviet Union beaten, we also kept someth ing far more valuable than, our oil supplies, out of their hands. In the movie the Afghan leader talking to Congressman Wilson said that the only reason the Soviet Union was attacking was because of their stance relative to Pakistan. By controlling Afghanistan the Soviet Union would have a direct road to Pakistan and where they could control the flow of oil. The Soviet Union had control of the oil it would have led to serious economic problems for the United States. galore(postnominal) people who know how we helped Afghanistan say that by our contributing to their war effort in the past we just gave them weapons to use against us now. Although there whitethorn be some truth to our own weapons being used against us, the fact remains that in the past we did not know this and we could not discount the suffering people of Afghanistan. Helping Afghanistan was to our benefit in the past and I agree with the decisions made by people like Congressman Wilson and Joanne Herring who raised the necessary funds.Every film has good moments and bad moments, although Charlie Wilsons War is not exempt from this, it is one of the movies that almost perfectly shows the true story. virtually films that are based off a true story stick to the very basics and add to the movie to make it interesting or dramatic. This movie however, tells the true story with very little the added fiction. Charlie Wilsons War accurately describes the events that occurred in the late 1900s. The meeting with Gust Avrakotos was not how the actual event happened however, Congressman Wilson did eventually meet with Mr. Avrakotos when he went to the CIA to pick out more about weapons for Afghanistan. Although the movie does focus on the serious nature of what is happening, it also adds funniness providing a break from all of the technical names and political scenarios. though I could have done without the nudity in the movie, it helps to show the reason Congressman Wilson was called Good Time Charlie. Despite some of the flaws in the film I fluid recommend this film to anyone who wants to watch a cracking story.Charlie Wilsons War is a fun and historically accurate movie that shows the distinction one man can make. The movie has love, conflict, courage, sorrow, and comedy which will carry on its viewers captivated until the final scene is finished. I give Charlie Wilsons War four and a half stars for the ability to stick to the truth and still keep the audience involved. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn a little more about American history.
