Top Comments of this video!! :3
I read his book when I was living in Vietnam and watched the documentary many times. In my opinion I think McNamara does clearly spell out what his feelings were regarding the war. Maybe not succinctly, but the lessons clearly apply both to Vietnam and the Iraq war at the time.
That said, I wish Charlie or Errol would have pressed him a bit more about his rationale that saying things against the administration could risk American lives. There's a degree of truth to that, but the lives of Americans long-term should also be taken into account. I think the real reason is it wouldn't have amounted to anything except tarnishing McNamara's legacy, as the right would have attacked him for being out of government for decades and not having access to modern intelligence, and the left would have attacked him for being one of the key figures in the Vietnam war.
