Drogengeld und Terror - Die USA gegen die Hisbollah

SYNOPSIS

In 2008, at a top-secret facility in Virginia, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) is working to uncover the criminal resources that feed the coffers of the Iranian-backed Shiite movement based in Lebanon. The DEA knows that the organization, in order to pursue its military and terrorist activities, is involved in cocaine and arms trafficking to the tune of a billion dollars a year. But because the investigation was getting dangerously close to the inner circle of power in Teheran, which Washington was trying to spare in order to save the Iranian nuclear negotiations, the censored agency did not obtain authorization to take action.
