The Brooklyn Connection
It's common knowledge that buying weapons in the United States is surprisingly easy. But what about outfitting a foreign guerilla army? Meet Florin Krasniqi, one of the driving forces behind Kosovo's fight for independence. He lives in Brooklyn, NY, where he runs a successful roofing company. But he is leading a double life. This program, based on material from Stacy Sullivan's book, "Be Not Afraid,For You Have Sons in America," shows the terrifying ease with which this charming businessman raised $30 million during the Kosovo War, purchased weapons across the USA and shipped them legally to Albania to be smuggled into Kosovo. The war ended in 1999, but Krasniqi warns that there could be another struggle – with arms provided by this Brooklyn roofer.
