Secret World Of The Illegal Weapons Trade: Global Arms Dealer Reveals How He Makes Millions Off War

Описание: David Packouz's life started as a fairly normal one. When he was 23 he began working with his childhood friend Efraim in his new weapons business. They began securing government contracts to supply arms to the US military during the second Iraq War. To increase their revenue and contracts they began sourcing ammunitions from China via Albania which was illegal to do. When the US Government caught on to what they were doing, it resulted in federal indictments, betrayal and prison time. David's story was told in the Hollywood blockbuster movie WAR DOGS. He's here today to tell us exactly how everything went down!
