:21:03
Ah, you want to continue, Frank?
:21:04
Remember Operation Desert Storm?
:21:07
Those surgical hits made by
our smart bombs, covered so well on CNN?
:21:10
It was my men on the ground
that made those hits possible
by lasing the targets.
:21:15
Twenty of them were left to rot outside
Baghdad after the conflict ended.
:21:18
No benefits were paid
to their families.
:21:21
No medals conferred.
:21:24
These men died for their country,
and they weren't even given
a goddamn military burial.
:21:30
The situation is unacceptable.
You will transfer $100 million...
:21:34
from the Grand Cayman Red Sea
Trading Company account
to an account I designate.
:21:38
From these funds, reparations
of $1 million will be paid...
:21:41
to each of
the 83 marines' families.
:21:43
The rest of the funds I will
disperse at my discretion.
:21:47
Do I make myself clear?
:21:49
Except for the Red Sea Trading Company.
What is that?
:21:52
- Identify yourself.
- This is FBI Director Womack, General.
:21:55
It's a slush fund where the Pentagon
keeps proceeds from illegal arms sales.
:21:59
Jesus, Frank!
This is classified information.
:22:01
You alert the media,
I launch the gas.
:22:05
You refuse payment,
I launch the gas.
:22:08
You've got 40 hours,
'til noon day after tomorrow
to arrange transfer of the money.
:22:11
I am aware of your
countermeasure. You know and I
know it doesn't stand a chance.
:22:15
Hummel from Alcatraz. Out.
:22:19
All right. We have to identify
the hostages and contact
each of their families.
:22:24
Uh, tell 'em somethin'. Make up a story,
and we've got to keep this undercover.
:22:28
If this comes out, the city
of San Francisco will be
in chaos. I am talking anarchy.
:22:32
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
What is the potential casualty rate...
:22:35
for a single rocket armed with
V.X. poison gas, General Peterson?
:22:40
- Sixty or seventy.
- Well, that's, that's not so bad.
:22:43
- Thousand. Seventy thousand dead!
- Oh.
:22:48
One teaspoon of this hits the floor,
it's lethal up to a hundred feet.
:22:53
One teaspoon of this shit
detonated in the atmosphere...
:22:56
will kill every living organism
in an eight-block radius.
:22:59
Get the point?
