    I remember the TIA part, but I don't remember about the "long sleeve" or "short sleeve" part. What was that?

    I have to agree with you on this one, for a change an American got out accent right

    This is so true we have all known about this for years and it had to take a movie t show the truth maybe now those rich overseas people will think twice about buying diamonds and first question where they are from!!!!!!

    This was definitely a great movie... I had no clue about this blood diamond industry before. It was a shocker for me... very sad reality.

    Loved this flick, I regret not seeing it on the big screen but I managed to catch it on HBO and ended up watching it a few times.

    Problem is that you can never tell. The supplier could have lied about it's origin.

    My question is how triue is the movie. If people are getting killed over the diamonds then shouldn't diamonds be worth more?

    It's all based on fact. There are tons of civil wars being fought in Africa right now. How do you think they finance those wars? Diamonds, Oil etc. Africa is probably the richest continent in natural resources, but the people stay poor because it benefits the rich to keep them so.
