A shopping spree with your tax dollars. We are F****D.

I really appreciate the videos these guys put out scary as they are. They really do go to THE CRAZIEST places in this little world of ours. Say what you may but One thing is for sure, These guys do not believe in censorship.


Here's a link to the video mags/shows http://www.vice.com/shows.

I would check out The Vice guide to travel, Toxic, or the cute show if you like seeing fuzzy little creatures.

The Vice guide to North Korea, Liberia, and the Congo are insane. Heimo's arctic refuge is also good. I'll put up some links as some of the videos are hard to find. Enjoy.

Its a U.S. and Jordanian joint venture. "For example we don't sell weapons to Iran we sell them commercial planes"

"you know its weird man, its like...everybody's real cordial with each other but, like, at the end of the day were, like, buying weapons to destroy each other with. I don't want to sound too liberal or any thing. Its really not glamorous. This shit fucking kills people. It's like they don't discriminate. They'll sell to anybody that has fucking money" -Marine just back from second tour in Iraq

Interesting video. They made a good point there when they talked about the US giving foreign aid to these countries so they can purchase weapons from US military-industrial corporations.

That "ex-marine" has horrible gun safety habits though.

"Thanks to the number of governments that are afraid of their own people, business is booming". Scary
