“A policeman in Baghdad knows the bomb detector he uses is fake, and will do virtually nothing to save anyone’s life, but he has his orders.  ‘If I were given a mop and told that it detects bombs in cars, I would still do it without any hesitation,’ he told AFP, asking not to be identified.  ‘The device is a 100-percent failure and we know that, but it is imposed on us; we cannot disobey direct orders,’ he added.  James McCormick, a British businessman, made an estimated £50 million ($76 million/59 million euros) selling the ‘bomb detectors,’ based on a novelty golf ball finder, to Iraq and other countries. He was sentenced on Thursday to 10 years in jail for fraud.”
