Since its founding in 1946, the US Army School of the Americas (SOA) at Fort Benning, Georgia, has trained 60,000 Latin American soldiers in commando tactics, psychological warfare and military intelligence. Rarely seen footage in this documentary shows how combat-ready SOA graduates use their guns to protect the greed of large corporations and world financial institutions. Host Don Fitz and John Slosar, Associate Professor of Social Work at St. Louis University, discuss the SOA as the military arm of the World Trade Organization, which globally attacks the environment, labor=20 rights and social justice.
