 posted by klance1 36 days ago
Based on George Crile's book about the
CIA's largest and most successful covert
CIA operation, the arming of the
Mujahedeen in Afghanistan. The covert ops
were engineered by Charlie Wilson (Hanks),
a charismatic, wheeler-dealer, liberal
Texas congressman who teamed with a rogue
CIA operative (Hoffman). The two
manipulated Congress, the CIA and a host
of foreign governments in order to assist
the Afghan rebels in their fight against
the Soviets in the 1980s. Many of the men
armed by the CIA went on to become the
Taliban's enforcers and Osama bin Laden's
protectors.
