It's my great pleasure
[00:01:32:15]
[00:01:32:18]
to welcome all of you to Jordan
at the SOFEX.
[00:01:35:17]
[00:01:36:05]
With the 349 exhibitors,
[00:01:39:01]
[00:01:39:15]
and more than 300 delegates
from around 85 countries.
[00:01:44:17]
[00:01:45:11]
Special Operations capabilities are vital
to the battle against global terrorism.
[00:01:50:06]
[00:01:50:17]
With your leadership, insights and efforts,
[00:01:54:22]
[00:01:55:03]
victory will be ours.
[00:01:57:08]
[00:02:31:12]
Hello.
[00:02:32:07]
[00:02:32:12]
Hello.
[00:02:32:23]
[00:02:33:00]
Two hellos.
[00:02:33:17]

Ladies and gentlemen, his Majesty
King Abdulla II bin al-Hussein,
[00:03:03:00]
[00:03:03:03]
the supreme comander of the
Jordanian Armed Forces,
[00:03:05:21]
[00:03:06:03]
and his excellency, the president of
the Republic of Yemen.

It's such a good story, you know?
[00:07:13:21]
[00:07:13:22]
Anything that we can do to...
[00:07:15:17]
[00:07:16:21]
help... you know...
the soldiers that we put out there.
[00:07:19:04]
[00:07:19:10]
And just think of it! A site like this tries to
replicate any type of situation that they're in.

We have an "Apple Pie,"
but we don't have it on the premises.

For a state, it's easy.
[00:10:22:00]
[00:10:22:03]
For a terrorist organization or a criminal
organization, it's more difficult.

[00:10:26:10]
But for example, in America, the main supplier
for the drug cartels in Mexico
[00:10:32:06]
[00:10:32:08]
are the free markets in America.
[00:10:35:03]
[00:10:48:18]
It's what we call now- Dual Technology.
[00:10:51:01]
[00:10:51:16]
For example, Iran bought this kind of plane
officially for commercial operation.
[00:10:57:21]
[00:10:58:03]
But Jordan says,
"We don't sell weapons to Iran."
[00:11:00:20]
[00:11:00:23]
"We sell other stuff.
It's a commercial plane."
[00:11:03:17]
[00:11:12:04]
For example, this kind of helicopter...
[00:11:14:11]
[00:11:14:13]
the North Koreans have some of this kind.
[00:11:17:09]
[00:11:20:06]
So it's pretty scary.

Kazakhstan.
[00:11:32:23]
[00:12:42:08]
I'll tell you, these are hugely successful.
[00:12:44:14]
[00:12:45:11]
In Iraq and Afghanistan...
[00:12:47:01]
[00:12:47:04]
not just in the United States Forces,
[00:12:48:19]
[00:12:48:22]
but internationally.
[00:12:50:08]
[00:13:02:22]
You know, it's weird, man.
[00:13:03:22]
[00:13:04:00]
It's like... everybody's real cordial
with each other.
[00:13:06:15]
[00:13:07:01]
But, like, at the end of the day, we're, like,
buying weapons to destroy each other with.
[00:13:10:05]
[00:13:10:08]
I don't want to sound too, like,
liberal, or anything.
[00:13:13:07]
[00:13:13:16]
It's really not glamorous.
[00:13:15:00]
[00:13:15:03]
This shit fucking kills people.
[00:13:16:17]
[00:13:17:01]
It's like, they don't
discriminate.
[00:13:18:06]
[00:13:18:07]
They'll sell to anybody
who has fucking money.
