Description

The film unravels a number of the world’s largest and most corrupt arms deals through those involved in perpetrating and investigating them. It illustrates why this trade accounts for almost 40% of all corruption in global trade, and how it operates in a parallel legal universe, in which the national security elite who drive it are seldom prosecuted for their often illegal actions.

  • It could have been so much more

    Not a bad documentary but nothing new or particularly insightful. It neither delved sufficiently deeply in to the arms industry or in to any particular facet of the so called war on terror. It rather dragged up a few well known stories of corruption and highlighted yet again the folly of Bush and Blair after 9/11.
