While I'm down in Libya, he took a contract to train the protection squad for Amwar Sadat. They were bitter enemies. We'd just been through a war between Libya and Egypt. I was afraid I was going to get in trouble. So I got him out. I said,…

He bought that for me and went into partnership with Lowers and Slatter. It didn't last very long. Whatever this guy, meaning Livingstone, knows about security, he knows about it by reading about it. He's never been involved in it on the fr…
