The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous.

We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

Liam Fox, Britain's most senior defence minister, arrived at the fair to reassure any nervous manufacturers that despite all the controversy they need not worry about a lack of political backing. Al Jazeera's Laurence Lee reports from London, UK.
