The expulsion of the Indian community virtually brought Uganda's retail trade to a halt. There are shots of the Ugandan capitol, a modern city with skyscrapers, but then we see that the shops are without goods. They should fly our own East African Airlines, an excellent airline - or Air France." He laughs. But what about the innocent passengers on the hijacked planes? His answer: "They are not too innocent, you see, because they are flying El Al or TWA. The filmmakers question Amin on some of his more notorious opinions, such as that the Germans should have murdered more Jews, and he replies evasively, "We should talk of the future - not the past." He says on record that airplane hijackers would be welcome in Uganda, as indeed they were. This eventually becomes an exhortation on the duties of cabinet ministers to love their leader, and finally Amin ends with an ultimatum: "Anyone absent from three cabinet meetings without an excuse will be banished from the cabinet!" It's like Alice in Wonderland - or Africa. As his generals and ministers sit stiffly, taking notes, he lectures them on the need to make Ugandans love their leaders. The footage in the film was approved by Amin, we're told does he realize what light it depicts him in? He holds a cabinet meeting for the benefit of the cameras. As he explains how he will defeat the Israelis, we notice that his forces consist of a few hundred men and two jet airplanes. He strides out into a field, dressed in battle camouflage, and takes command in a mock raid on Israel's Golan Heights. We see him addressing the nations' military, its doctors, even its crocodiles. We see Amin surrounded by smiling and applauding villagers and lots of kids - all of them rounded up for the occasion. He appears in many scenes that were, Schroeder tells us on the sound track, staged for the movie.
