Fog of War documentary:
Please go to this link on youtube to watch this documentary film and write a response essay of at least 450 words after you have watched the documentary. Submit it here. In this essay, please:
1.) Summarize what happened in the documentary.
2.) Identify what you consider to be the main argument or lesson the filmmakers were trying to make with this documentary (whether or not you agree with it). This might not be explicit, and could instead require your interpretation. Be as fair as possible in answering this section.
3.) Identify one of Robert McNamara’s lessons that you either strongly agree or disagree with. Argue why you think it is correct or flawed/wrong, providing some evidence. To “argue” is more than simply giving your opinion. It is to make a claim and provide good reasons why that claim should be accepted and others rejected. If the lesson you pick is one that you agree with, tell me why it is correct or valuable using evidence and/or examples that McNamara does not. If the lesson you pick is one that you disagree with, tell me exactly why it is flawed, either by explaining why the examples, values, or evidence he appeals to are flawed (or undesirable), or by using your own evidence and examples to explain what is wrong with it.
Please watch the film thoroughly to work on this assignment please. Using specific detailed fact from the documentary to write this assignment is crucial.
