DESCRIPTION:From the producers of The Hidden Wars Of Desert Storm a film on the complex

 both the current chemical-spray program carried out by the US 
 Defense-contractor Dyncorps and the multi-billion-dollar aid package 
 delivered to the brutal Colombian military. Additional insights are 
 provided on the significant factor oil has become in the Colombian
