He was the hero that took Ft. Ticonderoga and Saratoga!! However, due to lack of recognition for his achievements he betrayed George Washington and the american people by giving army secrets to the British and collected 20,000 British pounds. He didn't do it for money, he did it out of pride and lack of recognition.
What does the narrator mean by "they"? George Washington favored Benedict Arnold and tried to do everything in his power to reward him for his services. Benedict didn't receive the recognition that he felt he deserved; it's his responsibility for his own reputation for marrying a loyalist, becoming a spy and betraying the revolutionaries. It was selfish to put his ambition first, risking so many citizens lives. This documentary is a typical attack on our founding fathers & western civilization.

Benedict Arnold gets a bad rap. He was a fine general.
