9:13 am
kingdom, the end of discussion from there on everything else was technically he explained to mrs. sacha, 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 charity. our most people understand is bribes. the we'll continue to work together against the terrorists who threaten the way of life of us citizen the one day my phone rang and it was a man called eddie coming to me. 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.
9:14 am
and he told his extra stories that when the saudi military officers would come along, he would 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. so rather an atlantic 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 older as you need
9:15 am
to use and ask what agency called blog is because of the special taste of the street. stuff of the army, lay blonde, 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 and i said your oath, i know you will be paid handsomely for this, but do me a favor. if you get any people thought that is relevant, please bring across because i could use it. and for each interesting information, i will give another 2000 and your bonus. so with 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 his 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
9:16 am
b a. were people on the level of the head of the saudi air force who was a royal prince. we would fly down 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, 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. as the trail appeared to lead towards senior members of the sagging room 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 this barrier, which he promptly have painted in the gray and feel the colors of the dallas cowboys and his favorite so very can team. and he used to fly around in that guy
9:17 am
cheerfully. the case centered on establishing the ultimate beneficiaries of exceptionally knowledge amounts of money paid by but sherry space for consultancy services. there's evidence that mark sasha, this is actually some got 12000000 in cash for his work as a fixer. ah, no, no, no one is somebody beautiful weapon costa. and 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'm a soldier and you can do that legally. yeah, so no, but yeah,
9:18 am
more or less, you can as long as it to the house. sure, the kind of the neighbor i've 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 politics visit data by the whims of the arts. industry. politicians are nothing more than sales reps by the front. they have as much power as a middle ranking is they get it and look at 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 an arrangement with prime minister of x, y, z. i'll handle over the 5000000,
9:19 am
but you take half of that fine and you send it to the following bank account and switzerland will share in this learn the 1st time and executive does that any collect 2 point $5000000.00. 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 selling bribes, and he has no scouring of the world for somebody to find to bribe ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, i was, i had to do the toys out. i,
9:20 am
i each trotted cole's huge fine wall 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 to which they channeled secret payment into a british virgin islands. off shore company called red diamond from red diamond, the money went into his guys swiss bank account and he then used it to distribute
9:21 am
to the local politicians, taking a big chunk ram. so of course, i can certainly showing lee and i believe most companies are. busy not in the business of making payments passing because 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 the most dangerous story. the prince band had been given, not just a claim, but over the years, a total of $1000000000.00 pounds. we did not invent corruption. i mean adam and he wouldn't have him. and they had hanky panky and had to go down to add. so this is, this is human nature neutral punch or state one 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
9:22 am
those people who believe that greed violence, etc, the driver. so call 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 on the right of this 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 4 things besides their thing to do is 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
9:23 am
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 my real emotions, including love and generosity. my god, if you want is freedom, the freedom of human beings of 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 has in fact in a threat not only to equality, but the threat to the freedom of peoples all over the world. and not only in europe and the united states, but in africa, in asia, and in latin america. i want you to know me any society in which you've had any large measure of that freedom where capitalism and free enterprise has not been the predominant mechanism. not free enterprise system has spread through the 4th of all . can those arms were wielded by government. that was government intervention under
9:24 am
the name of the free enterprise system, but a government intervention which destroyed the freedoms of many people, not least of which of the people of chile yeah. i from the 1950s, all the way through the 1970s. 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 populous leaders. they were backing up right way military winters, funding an army desk was like the country that corolla or a battalion 316 and 100 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 day,
9:25 am
anytime you're going to be killed, you don't know how, but it's coming. we were fighting and normally guard and still we are fighting oligarchs. mines that don't one thing we're going inclusiveness. but just to direction. it's not only about taking from dears, but thinking 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 or 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
9:26 am
and it was stopped through a real genuine attempt by the global law to take over the institutions of the world, including the world bank, the i m f. so not simply the people of the south incapable of getting forward day dream i, he was a very strong this james or assassinated. it was just the one off killing the other. cool. then the entire dream that had to be killed in i shall be. she told us to be and book on our for my new
