@@AshkenaziChristian That's a truly curious accusation. Does that invalidate his anti-establishment movies? When you use the word "goyim" are you referring to him as a Jew? His American-born father was Jewish (non-practicing) and his French-born mother was a Roman Catholic. Stone was raised in the Episcopal Church and now practices Buddhism. Your last sentence, besides being pure Shakespeare, is an all-inclusive embrace of humanity that brings up the question: Is there anyone who is not on that big stage?

@@hashimawan2433 That's quite a leap you are making, isn't it? It really doesn't matter what any of us think because the truth is that it doesn't change what is happening. The idea that there are things going on behind the scenes is nothing new. The entire world knows this. It is common practice everywhere to get large numbers of people to believe one thing or another. (Just look at how many people still believe that Trump won the 2020 election in a landslide.) Stone presents an alternate reality for his own reasons -- it would be more interesting to know where he actually stands on your question.

I'm a Veteran of Afghanistan, Marine Corps, fought in the Battle of Marjah, and this guy nails it directly on the head with exactly the head-space and reaction of coming home to where no one even understands and are too into other things. I lost many friends from suicide and alcohol, almost myself as well. I tested with LSD and it saved my life and I have a wonderful family now because it cured my depression from the war. The knowledge this man has and able to describe in explicit detail exactly what it's like to deal with all this was extremely refreshing. I wish I could give it more likes. Anyone wondering what it's like for a combat veteran dealing with life and coming home, he articulates it perfectly. His foreshadowing of the future is quite perplexing in his accuracies, little more on the conspiracy than not, but I commend him regardless.

I am also a veteran of the Battle of Marjah. I think there are a small undercurrent of us who have been pushed into the realm of the spiritual as the only option to save our souls from a world that is actively dooming itself. Please, please do not lose faith in the fact that one day our perspectives will be called upon to do something important in the history of the world. There is no such thing as re-integration. Keep following the path that you feel is right. We will be needed again someday. Stay true.

Moshtarak - the fact that Marjah in fact does not exist as a town and never has, in particular, and yet the two of you having participated in the operation both refer to this non-existing place rather than using the name of the operation in question. Were you also given the false information that media and the public were given before and during Moshtarak? Seems odd.

Brilliant and why has this only got 14k views? I've always enjoyed Oliver's movies but this gives a fantastic insight in to his thinking especially what he said about America and it being a third world policeman intervening in border conflicts. The guy clearly saw a vision and it pretty much came true. Given I don't live in the states, however from a outsider looking in, it seems they are further away from accepting alternative ideologies than ever. Thank you so much for sharing and subbed.

Quite the contrary, things are changing within America, and have been for the past twenty years or so. Not as much politically, because that is still dominated by the two-party projection/one-party reality that operates as a corporate-backed oligarchy, but we are seeing more and more people turn away from the policy of interventionism and proxy conflicts. Most Americans do not fall in either of the extremes, but somewhere in the middle, but if you watch mainstream news, you wouldn't know it.

I have a special connection to Oliver Stone and his Vietnam Movies and I think "Born on the Fourth of July" is pretty much one of his BEST works because not only was was it a pretty autobiographic movie (like Platoon) but it was also done in such a deeply sensitive way that it left me speechless and sobbing multiple times through the course of the film. I could actually feel this strong sincerity in his Vietnam movies. Because HE was there. He saw what his film characters saw & felt what they felt, as well as his fellow comrades. It brought me much closer to the Veterans of Vietnam on a personal than anything else. Well that and YOUR interviews of course, Mister Hoffman. :) And i think that is pretty much the strongest & most important impact you can have as a filmmaker when you tell a story about history & events that some folks wanna make people forget about.

I love the art of film, and although it's a documentary genre, the content is no less artistic than, say a beautiful Tarkovsky film. There's a lack of authenticity in the film and cinema medium nowadays, which for someone who really believe in the potency of this art form is saddening. But to be able to watch these tapes brings back that authenticity. Keep it coming. Thanks!

In his memoir, he elaborates that his father was a non-combat officer in WWII. His dad spent WWII in a cushy office as a finance officer in Paris on Eisenhower's staff. His dad would often say those were the best years of his life. Oliver resented and was deeply hurt that his father knew he'd been wounded twice and was deeply traumatized, yet still dismissed the war. It took basically a decade of arguing with his dad about it before his dad finally started to listen to his son's experience. He died before Platoon came out, and I wonder if that would have helped. I also wonder if his dad felt a bit guilty and inadequate because would point out he'd not been in combat, and so got defensive?

I can only imagine what might have happened to him, had he not experienced Vietnam. He'd be a very different person in my opinion and probably not have given us these extraordinary pictures and art. Sad but probably true.

Life is like a school for all of us . By mistakes we learn but I do not belive we should follow anyone . We don't need a guru . We can listen what others say but we should choose our own path . All what you have to know is to distinguish good from bad and that is responsibility of parents .

This is still very relevant. More so, because the current generations have not experienced manipulation which leads to death the same way the Vietnam war did, but the manipulation is still there. It's just much more sophisticated now. But it can be equally bereft of morality.

Wow. Yes I can identify with this one (except the drugs which scared me when I saw a friend trip out on marijuana laced with LSD). So I took up, and still, smoke cigars. My doctor doesn't even fuss at me. I though of something where boomers often get wrongfully blamed by snowflakes, but I'll wait for a more appropriate film to make that remark. Hope I'm not responding too much. This is an enjoyable and intelligent outlet. Helps me exercise the remainder of my brain. Now, let's go be a blessing.

I agree with virtually everything Oliver says here. His vision of Vietnam and the sixties is echoed almost perfectly by the vets that came back and is seen in Platoon and Born, and his dissection of the 80's in Wall Street and Salvador is brilliant. I saw the movie JFK 3 times in it's first 2 weeks in the theatres. It was one of my all-time fav movies. I was a JFK conspiracy buff for 30 years since the late-80s having bought over 25 books propounding a conspiracy. However in the last 4 or 5 years I have started to read the 'official' story of the Warren report and other authors (Posner, Bugliosi etc) and have seen the absolutely empty arguments of conspiracists in the face of the actual evidence. This was incredibly profound for me. I switched 180 degrees. The 'facts' is the movie JFK (taken for the most part from Jim Marrs book) are virtually all either misrepresentations, myths passed on over the years based on mistaken initial reporting of events or willful lies. Conspiracy arguments are based on cherry-picked 'facts' that leave out relevant details that point in the opposite direction, of suspicions (ex. Dulles would have hated Kennedy so he was guilty of conspiracy) or extremely fallible eye-witness testimony. People who are conspiracy buffs like I was need to try to be honest with themselves and read a different point of view without the conspiracy glasses on. Of course conspiracies have occurred (Watergate, trump etc) but you need evidence to prove them. When conspiracists say 'Ruth Paine was a CIA plant' or ‘Capt. Fritz was working for CIA" etc, you need to have evidence (a document, tape recording sworn testimony...) you just can't blithely ASSERT it to be true. The other thing that disturbs me about Oliver's recent views is his post-modern dismissal of truth and his cozy relationship and admiration of Putin. However I still love virtually all his films except JFK which I can't watch easily now without cringing the whole way through.

You "read 25" books, yet never found a shred of evidence of a conspiracy? That's on you. How bout the shot that hit the president in the head? Explain that coming from behind? Or the admitted forgery by the CIA of Oswalds movements in Mexico City David Atlee Phillip's said as much on a panel that included Mark Lane. How about the foiled plot in Chicago weeks earlier? Not to mention a bunch of credible evidence and confessions linking Hunt, Sturgis and the CIA. You will never find a smoking gun, not even in the official report and its sponsors.
