Operation Odessa
Anyone else watch this yet? It's a pretty eye-opening documentary, and is highly recommended viewing for those with Showtime.
It's a true account about how a Miami-based Russian strip club owner, a high-end marina owner, and a Cuban drug dealer managed to supply the Cali cartel with extraordinary material smuggled out of the Soviet Union after its collapse.
It's disturbing to think what stuff might have been sold internationally to criminal elements and still be available out there to the highest bidder.
