But in the context of film, the Soviets had invaded Afghanistan and, like in real life, caused great destruction in the country. Are we supposed to side with them in the movie? In real life whilst the Soviets did cause destruction to some extent, the Muhjideen were worse. We essentially propped up a frankenstein's monster of Islamic extremism and it later came back to bite us in the arse and in the James Bond universe, this means Bond helped cause 9/11. ] Quite a good video from, John Pilger, whose work is strongly recommended. Even if the mujahideen were worse, two wrongs don't make a right. I also don't think Daylights is as anti Russian as people believe. The head of the soviet military is even one of the good guys, helping Bond to foil a rogue general. |
