Scene where the SEALS caught the arms dealer on his yacht and then got him to spill his guts by simply appealing to his better nature could have come right out of a Saturday Night Live skit. Really unexpected dose of satire in the middle of an otherwise serious movie that effectively highlighted the absurdity of the ban on water-boarding.
How times have changed since this story took place, back then we were fighting against FARC (the Colombia based Marxist-Leninist revolutionary guerilla organization). Under Obama, in 2009, we supported a FARC-backed attempt to set up a Hugo Chavez-style dictatorship in Honduras.
(Yeah, I know, you never heard about that. Long story short, Hugo Chavez buddy and FARC endorsed President Manuel Zelaya tried to declare himself perpetual dictator of Honduras in clear violation of the Honduran constitution. That didn't go over so well with the Honduran legislature, court system or military who immediately united to remove this wannabe dictator from the country. Well, constitutions don't carry too much weight with the Obama administration apparently and they immediately branded this a "coup" and took all available actions short of military intervention to compel the Honduran government to accept this Chavez puppet as their new dictator. I know it's unbelievable. I'll try and find my other post on this and re-post.)
