There is something terrifying in the simplicity of "Mr. President, we've put together a scenario by which we attack *Hassan Airport."* It showcases just how _easy_ it would be to inflict maximum harm, and that maintaining peace is the truly difficult choice.
Always appreciated to question that seen brings up. How moral is a proportional response, really? It has brought us decades of continual minor wars. Is this really better? Not saying it isn't better, but I would hope in halls were it matters, the question was asked.
I would think the Iraq war and the 3/4ths of a million people murdered by Americans because a corrupt administration ordered it would be example enough.

Fitzwallace has to be one of the best written military leaders in TV history. He’s not a stereotypical overconfident general, he’s contemplative and assured with out being overbearing and he’s understanding and accepting of Bartletts lack of military experience and foreign policy knowledge
This goes off but my favorite of Fitzwallis is when he walks in on the meeting about gays in the military...John Amos was so wonderful! He was one of my favorites...wish he had been used even more!
The first couple of segments (the proportionate response thing) were Bartlet and Fitzwallace following Lincoln's advice to write a rip-roaring, barn-burning letter to the person who offended you, putting all your anger on the page ... and then not send it.
I adore how he asks the pilot about his ankle and then for his parents number because usually he calls parents of lost service members and now he gets to have a waaaay better version!
“Is this another crazy general with guns…..no offense, Fitz.” That always cracked me up!!!! Gawd, the casting of John Amos was so utterly perfect. Gravitas with a touch of wry.
I gotta admit showing a prospective love interest how their hometown is gonna be during a nuclear strike is a hell of a opening moving in the game of woo.
I mean who else can say they used a billion dollar defense network computer to show your date her hometown during a first strike on the U.S . . . .LOL!!
I thinik a powerful moment is when Admrial Fitzwallace asks for clarification orders from the President of what he is seeking then goes to work to show him the devastating power that the President has, knowing that doing so will convince the President of his better angel to not go ahead with such a plan.
This was a great tv show with great characters and story lines. The actors and actresses involved did an outstanding job. Every character was well developed and astoundingly performed.
Sure this is television and not real. But this is how I want POTUS to react; by taking those moments to find clarity for what he has to do. Find clarity for the decision he is about to make. Understanding fully that there will be a reaction to his actions that will put others in harms way. Clear heads should prevail in a crisis.
TWW was one of the best TV series ever. President Bartlett was the best President that the US never had. I did wonder about the proportional response though. The situation went from one basic response to huge response and no stops along the way. "Four rated targets" well why not hit eight or ten rated targets, but well below the wholly disproportionate response. Apparently Martin Sheen is a softly spoken and kind man. This shows how strong and actor he is with the performance of rage he gives. Even his first lines on the show, end of the first episode, quoting the Commandments was a powerful introduction for his character.
I HATE what they did to Toby's character with regard to the military space shuttle story line. First off, I do not for a moment believe Toby's brother would have revealed that information to Toby. Second, even if he did, while Toby may have disagreed with any decision not to employ the military shuttle for a rescue mission, he would have respected the President's reasoning and kept mum. Thirdly, if Toby could not reconcile that reasoning, then he would have simply resigned. No way he gives the quote to a reporter.
John Goodman as Pres Walken was such a perfect casting. Only an actor like Goodman could take a character like that and by the end of his show arch, you actually like and respect him.
This whole episode explores the ethical dilemmas of the Commander in Chief. The tension between professional armed forces personnel, an elected official and the consequences from such a decision. Awesome writing as always
Love this channel, keep it up. However, I want to point out that there has been an unconscionable lack of Anna Deavere Smith clips uploaded so far, Nancy McNally may have only been in 20 episodes but she was one of the greatest side characters in an already stacked cast.
The show is very generous with its portrayal of politicians but its portrayal of the generals and joint chiefs has to be spot on. Most of the time the politicians dont deserve to be in the same room with them.
They take their sweet-ass time lifting non-lethal mission parameters in Splinter Cell, though. ...Granted...90% of the time we don't tell them what our operations are, so maybe it's for the best we listen to those.
The "proportional response" scene is ridiculous. That Fitzwallace and his team, in giving the president a supposedly more robust response option, present one which involves possibly thousands of civilian casualties, is preposterous. As opposed to maybe....every military airfield, port and headquarters in half of the country is destroyed overnight, or something similar in scale.
@@galwitprifor001 - But that isn't what it means. Massive destruction to the enemy's military ability with minor, if any, civilian casualties is exactly what Bartlett asked for. Fitzwallace did not give it to him when it was certainly within the US military's ability to provide.
@@2013jpm That’s what Bartlett thought he was asking for. But Fitz knew that such an action would eventually escalate to the point where civilians would be targeted because there was no other way to get to the enemy’s leaders. So he skipped the intermediate steps and showed Bartlett the worst case scenario short of a nuke.
@@galwitprifor001 - that's a possibility, sure, but it's not what the president asked for. An overwhelming response that reduces the enemy's military capabilities to the point that not only is its ability to cause mayhem around the globe threatened but its survival in the region is at risk might just do the job - which was exactly what Bartlett wanted. USN F-14s shooting down two Libyan Migs once accomplished this very thing.
I would actually suggest it's a great example of managing up. Adm. Fitzwallace wants Pericles One, so the alternative he offers is deliberately unacceptable to the President's moral imperatives. It could have been more subtle (e.g. a more comprehensive response that risked American attrition), but they're writers not strategists.
27:45 - not exactly a blown line, but kind of a reading-fumble where the actor has not comprehended what is being said in the script and mis-emphasizes words in the sentence. The line is not “she ends up consoling ‘em”- as in, a casual description of the interchange. He’s making a ‘jest’ of sorts to Leo. Remember Abby is receiving calls from people trying to console HER…President Bartlett is telling Leo the tables turn on the calls and ’SHE ends up consoling THEM’ - which gets totally lost in his reading. Normally 90% of WW misspoken lines John Spencer’s - this is a rare Martin Sheen fumble.
Seriously, the whole Kumari plane deal, but NOT the scene in the Sit room where Fitzwallace and Leo argue over what war is and if the target is worth hitting?
Anything that happens in the Situation Room is a dangerous scenario to me if there's anything I've learned from this TV series. In reality it's the same thing. Whoever the President may be, if you're sent to the Situation Room that means SOMETHING REAL SERIOUS IS ABOUT TO GO DOWN and a RIDICULOUSLY NERVE WRACKING AND HEART POUNDING AND SOUL CRUSHING DECISION HAS TO BE MADE.
12:20 something that just occurred to me: why would a F-117A patrol a no-fly zone? It was a bomber, it had no air-to-air combat capability and carried no air-to-air weapons at all.
It would really help if you could please put time stamps in the comments telling us which episodes these segments are from, so we know which episode we want to watch in full.
O thought the treasurer is the vault held in the president's suit! Why- the president is a impersonal assistant to the civilians in the future. The person's here represent something , not the united States of America. The currency the president uses is rented, the vault in the suit is property protection. His personal weapon is his security.❤❤❤❤
The Great Seal of the State of Oregon permanently depicts the eagle facing left (sinister in heraldic terms) toward the arrows. I have formulated my own answer to that.
Events preceding Oregon's admission to the UNION in 1859 involved contentious confrontations with Great Britain, Spain, Russia, sundry native interests, and competing domestic interests. OREGON is worth fighting for.
An unarmed F-117 flying patrol in a no fly zone...how does he defend himself, spriballs? The F-1178 was designed to be a stealth bomber...no guns, not designed to dogfight.
The Space Shuttle story never made an ounce of sense, but not because of the leak in any way. It's impossible for anything to launch without someone noticing, just look at any SpaceX launch today. Hell, we even know when the Chinese launch, even if we don't know what they're launching.
The question is : how and where did Leo get to know the details and ends to the sit-room's operations? He was a cabinet member in the previous administration, but there was no reason why he'd been in the situation room before!
Leo was in the military. At this point the only former military member, and he’s worked at defence contractors. He knows the jargon, the way things go.
I am staggered that the company that in 1886 got the Patent-Motorwagen, for what is widely regarded as the first internal combustion engine in a self-propelled automobile. The slogan for the brand then was "The Best or Nothing!". What an amazing waste of Court time when all they had to do was spend what - $200? - and simply replace the steering wheel. How does three-pronged remain one of the most sold car brands? How?! Keep up the superb journalism JC! MB may give you a car as a thank you?!
"An eye for an eye" (Biblical Hebrew: עַיִן תַּחַת עַיִן, ʿayīn taḥaṯ ʿayīn) is a commandment found in the Book of Exodus 21:23-27 expressing the principle of reciprocal justice measure for measure. The earliest known use of the principle appears in the Code of Hammurabi, which predates the Hebrew Bible. THAT is the virtue of a proportional response.
I always liked the situation room scenes, but man could they have used a military tech advisor. It’s like they flipped through a book of military terms and just picked them at random.

That part where Leo snaps at that guy over diplomatic talks to save that pilot. I felt that. That's Leo's own personal experiences being shot down.

"Just another crazy general with guns. No offense Fitz." Legend.
I'm sure Admiral Fitzwallace was probably more offended at being compared to a General.
He should have replied, "None taken. I'm a crazy Admiral, not a crazy General."
Tell me about it. We are dealing with crazy generals where I live.
