Fedquipsays...Of Course the Iraqi Government wants them out... that doesn't meant they will leave.
From the AP News wire
MINKsays...arrrgghghghghghghghghghgh private army? private freaking ARMY?
i mean, the junior encyclopedia of hitler's germany can probably tell you why this is a bad idea.
Farhad2000says...Blackwater is not military.
Enzobluesays..."Of Course the Iraqi Government wants them out... that doesn't meant they will leave." - Well we don't want to give them the impression that it's a democracy.
Doc_Msays...Just wait, Google will put them out of business soon enough. G-Army(TM) coming to a battlefield near you.
Seriously though, this sorta organization is crossing the line. We shouldn't allow them to operate out of our country.
Rottysays...Seriously though, better they operate out there than inside our country *IF* they operate al all!
mysdrialsays...They have their own tanks?
I thought most of the "big" weapons in the states were a bit better regulated than that? Kind of scary...

Blackwater is already operating within the US, and profiting very well from it:

Why do we need an army at all? Let's just overpay some company to fight our wars so we don't have be responsible for any wrong doings. I mean really people, freedom isn't free.
gorgonheapsays...Hey hiring mercenaries won a lot of wars from the 12th century to the 17th. Why not bring back an old trend eh?
ravensays...*waronterror
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Waronterror) - requested by raven.
NordlichReitersays...I used to do asset protection, for a US company .. here in the US. Never ever carried a gun, never want to for a living. But I did go though training on threats, and this sort of stuff.
Its bullshit training, amounts to a school that give you a black belt just because you showed up.
You cannot shoot any one under a percieved threat. It better be a monster threat, because as a mercenary you operate under the radar therefore your punishment will be under the radar.
