Selling guns is like selling vacuum cleaners you make calls "pound the pavement", take orders, by the mid-eighties my weapons were represented in eight of the world's top ten war zones, there's no problem living a double life it's the triple and quadruple lives that get you in the end ,back then I carried a French, British, Israeli and Ukrainian passport and a student visa for the U.S. but that's another story. I also packed six different briefcases depending who I was that day and which region of the world I was visiting

There's no problem leading a double life.
00:00:10.618 --> 00:00:13.536
It's the triple and quadruple lives
that get you in the end.
00:00:13.621 --> 00:00:17.915
Back then, I carried a French, British,
Israeli and Ukrainian passport
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:21.544
and a student visa for the US.
But that's another story.
00:00:21.587 --> 00:00:25.798
I also packed six different briefcases,
depending on who I was that day
00:00:25.883 --> 00:00:28.998
and the region of the world I was visiting.
00:00:33.265 --> 00:00:35.058
Without operations like mine,
00:00:35.142 --> 00:00:39.052
it would be impossible for certain countries
to conduct a respectable war.
00:00:39.813 --> 00:00:43.983
I was able to navigate around
those inconvenient little arms embargoes.
00:00:44.998 --> 00:00:46.235
There are three basic types of arms deal.
00:00:46.032 --> 00:00:49.003
White being legal, black being illegal
00:00:49.156 --> 00:00:51.949
and my personal favorite color, gray.
00:00:52.201 --> 00:00:54.661
Sometimes I made the deals so convoluted,
00:00:54.745 --> 00:00:57.538
it was hard for me to work out
if they were on the level.
00:00:57.581 --> 00:01:00.075
To keep authorities in the dark,
I often spoke in code.
00:01:00.918 --> 00:01:03.878
Rocket launchers were "mothers,"
the rockets, "children. "
00:01:03.921 --> 00:01:07.084
The AK-47 assault rifle
was the "angel king. "
00:01:07.925 --> 00:01:09.003
It's Yuri.
00:01:10.994 --> 00:01:12.097
Yeah, well, yeah, Raoul...
00:01:13.001 --> 00:01:16.001
Raoul, the angel king will arrive tomorrow.
00:01:17.559 --> 00:01:19.727
Hallelujah to you, too. All right.
00:01:19.077 --> 00:01:22.271
The point is, if I've done my job right,
00:01:22.999 --> 00:01:26.999
an arms embargo should be practically
impossible to enforce.
00:01:26.944 --> 00:01:31.001
What? Okay, just slow the fuck down.
00:01:31.999 --> 00:01:34.492
I can't understand you. What?
00:01:34.999 --> 00:01:37.578
What do you mean, tipped off?
They know where we are?
00:01:37.621 --> 00:01:40.001
Well, where are they?
Well, how long have I got?
00:01:40.958 --> 00:01:44.006
Not long? What does that mean? Shit.
00:01:44.128 --> 00:01:45.878
- Do we try to lose them?
- On this?
00:01:45.999 --> 00:01:49.001
- Yuri, we have to get off this thing.
- No, no one's going anywhere. Slow.
