ah ah, there were 5 months in a world war one, both sides were entrenched. they were just mass slaughter and cost the landscape. men were standing up sleeping. they were in their own species, and their dead comrades were sitting there no man's land. they couldn't even get them and bring them back for burial. was christmas eve and the german i can add a little christmas tree. it was like a stage that all of a sudden across the german front you saw the little christmas tree lighting up. and then the allies heard silent night being stunned by the german and started applauding. and then all of a sudden

a couple of guys on both side get out of the trenches and start walking toward each other and expect at any moment to pull flat with the machine to pick it up. and nothing happened. and within 2 hours walking about and laughing and talking and laughing from the german lines, hundreds get out of the trenches, $10000.00 to get out of the trenches. and they embrace each other a $100000.00 men. oh them. and that was great and that he was smoking and talking, shaking hands, exchanging names, addresses after all. right, one of the in the about a back and you're trying to general shelton the general be i must have seen it and

going to spacious one day again. others for about 3 of guns behind us to fire on officers fire their revolvers, the jerry shout out to the war again. or we were christian. and ah, this was or to, and all this was a war to make the world safe for democracy. at least 21000 new millionaires were made in the u. s. billions and billions of dollars with the pi. oh, got a few emission makers, builders, meat packers, and let us not forget the bankers who finance the great boy who turn blood into gold and i'm profits were a secret, as they were a man's all the looking i had to

i can i stand before you tonight, in my red star chiffon evening, the the face softly made up my fell gently wave, the law i own a day of the western. wow. yeah. my, my 6 radio between the united kingdom and saudi arabia in which ronald reagan wanted to sell the saudis billions and billions dollars worth of equipment. but these really lobbies stopped it and congress wouldn't approve it because they feared arming. saudi would threaten israel. so ronald reagan handed the deal is

effectively to his political soulmate, margaret thatcher. un seen nothing yet. yeah. you have very tough act. the me, i when we stumbled on the saudi alms deal, the gamma moms deal, we really started to stumble along a central feature of british politics over the last 30 years. heinous punch found on the hall of many of the great world events of the past. 30 years, i was always pleased to see him when i was prime minister, because he brought me extraordinary insight on both proposals. the she informed us to consider salary as a strong friend and would be willing to support the kingdom with whatever the

kingdom, the end of discussion from there on everything else was technically he explained to mrs batch and this was a deal with saudi arabia and therefore things were done differently. they wanted 43000000 pounds worth of weaponry. that was 6000000000 pounds in commission. the vast majority of what most people understand is bribes. we'll continue to work together against the terrorists who threaten the way of life of us to the one day my phone rang and it was a man called eddie coming home. actually, he said, i've been working for a travel company and we had a kind of slush funds we used to distribute to saudis and other arabs when they came to britain to be all to help the path of arms deals.

and it's always extremely stories that when the saudi military officers would come along even present the campaigns of cutlery, that was something that they liked. another thing they liked was girls. so he would take them out in the town and get them girls. to be honest, it seemed like quite small beer payments made some of them for rather an as lumnick activities. i know gaming chip, civic talks about cool girls that sort of thing. there's only 2 things that count in business, my friends, money and sex. the rest, you can write as much as you like, is absolute garbage. you to measure weapon beautiful depends on the secretary. because they're more distracted looking. you just think of something when you're talking about and that is sometimes all the as you need

to use and ask what agency called blog is because of the special taste of the street. stuff of the army lay belong, but silicon we had their secretary of the embassy, come and review the photos. you said i want this when i, when this, when i, when this, when i, when this one i had the girls arrived one day before i said, i know you will be paid handsomely for this, but give me a favor if you get any people thought that is relevant, please bring across because i can use it. and for each interesting information, i will give another 2000 and your bonus. so would 60 grand i signed the contract with 3000000, so it wasn't ideal. and then my phone rang again, and it was another whistle. and he said, you have no idea what it is that you're getting into here. and he said a slush fund is much, much bigger than you realize. our job was to look after the really high level people, those who used to come to england, who are being bribed essentially by

b a. were people at the level of the head of the saudi air force who was a royal prince. we would fly them to los angeles and they would buy cars and dresses and it wasn't shopping like you. and i would think in the end, when they gathered together all their shopping, we would charter an entire jumbo jet to fly it all back to saudi arabia. it was in the attempt to try and trace through the bank accounts, who the ultimate beneficiaries are. that the case became really very serious is the trail appeared to me towards senior members of the fact your family. the most outrageous example was that a i know, to, to speak with away with print, spend one point, maybe the presence of a huge commercial airline, all of his very own which he promptly have painted in the gray and silver colors of the dallas cowboys. and his favorite to very can team is to fly around in that glad

cheerfully. the k centered on establishing the ultimate beneficiaries of exceptionally knowledge amounts of money paid by bush, aerospace for consultancy services. as evidence that mark fashion misses, not just some got 12000000 in cash for his work as a fixer. ah no, no. no one is somebody beautiful weapon close to a name? if you want to sell on the market, you're looking probably about $3500.00 euros. and why do you keep it in the house? because i was older and you can do that legally. yeah, so no, but yeah,

more or less, you can, as long as it's in the house and the those are the kind of the neighbor. i got nothing is money. i don't mind paying bribes to bull additions. it's part of the deal. the thing about politicians is very much like prostitutes, but only more expensive the policies. is it dated by the whims of the arms industry? politicians are nothing more than the sales reps by the front. they have as much power as a middle ranking is they could have been lucky martin at the end of the day they do what they told when an executive goes to bribe a foreign official, he says don't self look. i've taken a lot of risk to take this $5000000.00 that i'm paying to the prime minister of x, y, z. makes arrangement with prime minister x y, z. i'll hand over the 5000000,

but you take half of that fine, and you send it to the following bank account and switzerland will share in this learning. yes. the 1st time and executive does that any collect $2500000.00. he says, wow, this is a good business to be in. and within moments of that realization he is now no longer in the business of showing airplanes. he's in the business of showing bribes and he has no scouring of the world for somebody to find to bribe ah, she has a fuse in june. to to, to mention i was, i had to do the coach extension i. each charlton calls

which is why i'm in the phone rang again, and this was somebody who said you have no idea what you're getting into. he said this whole be a thing is much, much bigger, goes right to the very top. what he had was something that you never see as a journalist. swiss bank records of international covered payments going all over the world. he showed me how be a set up a whole system with lloyd's bank under which they channeled secret payment into british virgin islands of your company, called red diamond from red diamond. the money went into his guys swiss bank account and he then used it to distribute to the local politicians, taking

a big truck graham self, of course, may not showing up lee, and i believe most companies are. busy not in the business of making payments, passing as you suggest, a lot of money to employees or governance when it is just not the way my business. we've done me. we were actually able to publish what was most dangerous story the prince band had been given, not just the plain, but over the years, a total of 1000000000 pounds. we did not invent corruption. i mean adam and he wouldn't have him. and they had hanky panky, and they had to go down to add so the to, this is human nature neutral punch, a statement and a friend. what is great? of course, none of us are greedy. it's only the other this, the world runs on individuals pursuing their separate enters all

those people who believe that greed violence, etc, the driver. so primal instincts, other really things and everything else is a social construction. they've lost their mind. and for the last 50 years, at least, policy has been made based on the assumption of green. and it's ruined the one pattern i believe there is no nature of society say to nurture individualism. i don't accept that at all. i think there are very many good pharmacy for creating society. there thing i love to visit with you make it what is a society that decides that the bulk of its budget is going to go to manufacturing really have a military center. they have made a moral decision that militarism is more important than the creation of well being

for the population. it's not the world i want to live in. i want to live in the real world. and the real world is people by real emotions, including love and generosity. my god, if you want is freedom, the freedom of human beings are individuals to pursue their own values. i think what the term freedom means is economic license and the economic license of those who control property and those who control capital hasn't fact been a threat not only to equality, but a threat to the freedom of peoples all over the world. and not only in europe and in the united states, but nafrica in asia and in latin america. i want you to name the any society in which you've had any large measure of that freedom where capitalism and free enterprise has not been the predominant mechanism. no free enterprise system has spread through the 4th of on those arms were wielded by government. that was government intervention under the name of the free enterprise system, but

a government intervention which destroyed the credence of many people not least of which are the people of chile ah, yeah. i from the 1950s, all the way through the 1970 the cia and the u. s. military were engaged in covert actions throughout central america throughout africa. really throughout the world where they were assassinating populace leaders. they were backing up right way military winters, funding an army desk was by the conference in the corolla, or a battalion 31600 and. and there were the state of assassinations across the globe in countries like mine, people have been killed to be quiet. to know that any they,

anytime you're going to be killed, you don't know how, but it's coming. we were fighting and normally dark and still we are fighting, you know, only guards mines that don't one thing we're going inclusiveness. but just to direction. it's not only about taking from dear speaking from the people even to dreams. nice the last half of what is called the cold war, not to be a very hot war for many parts of the world. from the standpoint of what it would cause, the victims, what i will think of really as of people trying to make their own futures, there was an attempt in the global south to create an alternative imagination for people. but in the early 1970 is this attempt was destroyed and it was

stopped through a real genuine attempt by the global lot to be over the institutions of the world, including the world bank, the i m f. so it's not simply that the people of the south incapable of getting forward day dream. i was a very strong this, james fascinated. it's not just the one off killing the other. cool. then it's the entire dream that had to be killed in i will be, she told us to be and book on our cutting for myself. i asked him in the orders for the wireless

cousin, indian, excuse me, one touch base. when i said that this here indeed you are going to him and be able to come in div yet i am indeed each thing that i see i i

implementation of the immigration laws. of the 1970 lead to be a being of the don't write a formal government apology for past injustices is rare and use the london has to meet strict criteria including the victims being definable as a distinct court that continues to suffer, connected to those historic given me the often violent don't rage, which the government has now apologized for. so police searching homes, businesses and even churches looking for overstayed to deport. the sense of injustice is still felt today. the leaders in new zealand, polynesian communities, welcome the apology and they hope it will help people of the pacific islands move on the story of deception life and death, an israeli spelling operating on the deep cover in syria. knowing that discovery
