Synopsis

A retired admiral told Bruce Kent, without even making a single request, they receive lots of money for weapons. Kent explained that currently, he believes both the right and left sides are willing to see reform in the United Nations.

There is an excerpt of James Cameron talking about nuclear disarmament.
