战争机器 War Machine (2017) Movie Script

Obviously, the endgame here is to just finish this thing.

So, how do we do that?

- Is it by reducing our footprint here?

- The civilian executive.

These were guys who, in Glen's eyes, hadn't earned their power the way he had, through hard work and discipline.

I don't know. But whatever it is, we want you to bring it on home, Glen.

But, whatever you do, please do not ask the president for more troops.

No more troops, Glen.

These were men who'd acquired their power through charm and seduction, and who seemed to serve no purpose other than to stand in the way of his greatness.

God, it's so f***ing hot!

F***!

Another f***ing assessment.

How many assessments do they need?

Just one f***ing assessment after another.

They all point the same direction.

Bring General Glen McMahon in here and do whatever the f*** he says!

Oh... Settle down, Greg.

They just wanna feel involved, is all.

Wars aren't fought by nations or by armies.

Wars are fought by men.

There are two types of general in the American military.

There are those who believe they can win in the face of all evidence to the contrary.

And there are those who know they can't.

Unfortunately for the world, it's the believers who climb to the top of the ladder.

It's guys like Glen who get given the keys to the castle.
