He pissed off a lot of people, but he was a national hero, and pretty much let them buy all the toys they wanted, even if he didn't let them go outside to play. Ironically, Ike was taking a subtle jab at the incoming Kennedy Administration which was bringing in Robert McNamara from the Ford Motor Company to be Secretary of Defense. Prior Secretary's of Defense/War had been career soldiers, lawyers, politicians, or public servants who had come up through the DC bureaucracy. McNamara stepped right out of the corporate boardroom and right into the Pentagon, with a corporate view of how the DoD needed to be run.

The agencies involved had already used & perfected the removal of uncooperative heads of state, staging coups, and toppling governments around the world, so this was only the next logical step in consolidating their power absolutely. The only difference is that it had to look like a 'lone nut' for our consumption.

Kevin Coster looking more and more exhausted as this goes on like he cannot fathom the leviathan being laid bare before him is p much how i felt watching this scene hahaha

Such an amazing film. I watch it at least once a year.

Probably the most important scene in the whole movie.

Mr X Leroy Fletcher Prouty (January 24, 1917 - June 5, 2001)[1] served as Chief of Special Operations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President John F. Kennedy. A former colonel in the United States Air Force, he retired from military service to become a bank executive. He subsequently became a critic of U.S. foreign policy, particularly the covert activities of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), about which he had considerable inside knowledge.

Donald Sutherland Manages to steal the whole film , a three hour movie, with one single ten minute clip.

Anyone who puts their faith and trust in professional politicians deserves everything that's coming to them.

@@joefeeney5497 I looked up more about it and it’s actually quite unclear. Here’s what I found : Johnson then adds: "Just get me elected and I'll give you your damn war." Stone writes in Premiere magazine that the last line comes from Karnow's book, which said LBJ actually made the statement to the Joint Chiefs at a 1963 Christmas Eve cocktail party. The filmmaker said "we took the liberty" of transposing the comment to the Oval Office. But Karnow says he cited the reported remarks as an example of LBJ's assuaging the brass "with promises he may have never intended to keep." On top of that, Gibbons says Johnson didn't even meet with the brass on Christmas Eve, as Karnow has it, or on Nov. 26, as Stone does.

A good bet for you is to watch , JFK TO 9/11--EVERYTHING IS A RICH MAN'S TRICK'. I will caution that it may be hard to find the film which is over 3 hours long, but well give it a try. From this film I learned this much. The Harriman, Bush , DuPont, and Rockefeller families became business partners with German tycoons, I.G. Farben and Fritz Thyssen. Through this partnership these most wealthy of American families financed Hitler's rise to power! Anyway give it a try if so wish.

It really is a mystery wrapped in an enigma inside of a riddle

"I always lock my files! . . Wait a minute, what do you mean you're going to write a book?!!!" Got my attention right there.

This movie wasn’t even supposed to get out. The government tried to petition it. Glad it did.

Imagine having a running mate and vice-president who was in on your assassination. That was the case with Kennedy and LBJ.

Geeze, this is the scene that always gets to me! From point 1:23 on the video clip, onward to the end........ but ESPECIALLY at 1:23.... IT IS SIMPLY CHILLING!!

As President Eisenhower said as he left office in January 1961, "Beware of the military industrial complex."

My dad was from NE Texas (not the hill country, from where Johnson hailed), but LBJ's accent and inflections in this clip are quite similar.

Yes. It’s such a sobering statement.

Rumor was that Nixon colluded heavily with lbj

I’m pretty sure that name tag on the desk at 3:12 is Edward Geary Lansdale. Coincidentally, he was close with Allan Dulles, the man Kennedy fired.

The fact of the matter was that Korea and Vietnam were planned by U.S. intelligence immediately after WW2 ended. All the Japanese military hardware that the U.S. confiscated from Japan after it's surrender was never sent back to the U.S. Half of the lot of Japanese arsenal went to Korea, and the rest went to Vietnam. Vietnam was an intelligence operation for 20 years beginning in 1945, then it became a military operation in 1965. The following monday after Kennedy was killed in Dallas, the Joint Chiefs of Staff submitted new Vietnam War death projection figures to the Pentagon's man-power analyst whose job was to figure accurately the military death toll projections. This analyst had already been submitted figures from the spring of 1963 from Kennedy that reflected a U.S. troop withdrawl out of Vietnam by the end of 1964. Current projections were based from figures that were submitted five years earlier. When the new figures were presented by the Joint Chiefs, the manpower analyst had proclaimed that those figures couldn't be right. They told her that they were correct and that you'll use them. The new figures reflected a 10-year war with over 57,000 americans dead.....exactly on target. The Joint Chiefs had already planned in 1963 how long the Vietnam war was going to last and how many would die.

It truly is. The entire scene is close to 20 minutes in length but you are so mesmerized by the dialogue, the editing, the music that you don't even realize 20 minutes have passed by the end of the scene.

1:18 - 1:30 Felt like watching a documentary during those 12 seconds.

I wish Oliver Stone would do a 3 hour sequel to JFK (the score again composed by John Williams) called “Mysteries of Mr. X” starring Donald Sutherland in the title role, sitting in front of the Washington Monument, explaining all the conspiracies and lies from the last 60 yrs that we don’t know....I don’t even care who sits next to him on the bench....they could just swap out various B-actors, a la Forrest Gump.

I saw this on a first date. not the best idea but a movie it was. it was just as the theaters were first offering upsizing for a quarter. so I upsized. it was a huge glass of coke. the cups had a waxy covering at that time. I really got into this movie and was fiddling with my fingers scraping that waxy covering off the still 3 parts full warm coke. scraped the sides clean and like an idiot I started scraping wax from the bottom of the cup. i ended up poking a hole and some physics miracle caused the coke to shoot out and drench my very well dressed date. none on me. smooth. still can't explain that. she was not happy and there was no second date. great movie though
