LIONS FOR LAMBS

Lions for Lambs” is a drama that is looking at the Afghanistan and Iraq wars to see if they have any credibility left. What is happening in the Middle East is that they are losing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan because they have to spend $12 billion a Month. “Lions for Lambs” is a drama that is critical of the war because it has an agenda. It wants to tell people the other side of story so they get an idealistic picture of what is going on in the Middle East. It is based on ideology which is to democratize the Middle East. Tom Cruise plays a Senator Jasper Lrring who supports the war on terror and Meryl Streep plays a journalist who is critical of the war in lraq, because of the incompetent US government Mismanagement of the war. Also you have Robert Redford plays Professor Stephen Malley who is idealistic about society because he wants change Todd Hayes so he can make something out of his life, but two of the professor’s other students are in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban because they think it is a right thing to do for their country. The students Ernest Rodriguez and Arian Finch are also idealistic about want they are doing in Afghanistan.
The movie is liberal propaganda telling a story that is fiction because the US government sent the troops to Afghanistan to meet an agenda to protect US interests in the Middle East. Janine Roth, the journalist who is writing a story critical of the war for U S A Today, New York post, Boston Globe, and Guardian, gave Lions for Lambs a bad review because it is liberal propaganda that is saying there are good wars and bad wars. Michael Pena and Ernest Rodriguez are idealistic and were sent to Afghanistan, but Professor Malley was in Vietnam due to conscription. Vietnam was a different kind of war being fought in a different time, as was the first world war. Because he is idealistic Professor Malley thinks he can change society. Senator Jasper Lrring also wants to change the world by fighting for plutocracy in the US and over who controls the world. The liberal media was critical of Lions for Lambs for being honest about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, because the First World War was a war to end all wars. I would give Lions for Lambs one star.
