The show deals with the actual
preparations of many western
countries, headed by the US,
to fight expected major civil
unrest as a result of the global
financial crisis.
Troups around the world are
training now in mock-up inner
city areas. Most countries are
willing to use military under
martial law, as well as national
guards and private military
corporations to help their
police forces.
