Americans don't have enough Regular Soldiers?


What is Blackwater doing in Iraq to begin with?


Iraq has been a diamond mine for American contractors of every kind, bringing billions of taxpayer dollars into the hands of oil, food, clothing, cement, and insect repellent suppliers.


But soldiers-for-hire? At twice the wage of the Yankee grunt?


Yes, kings and despots have been hiring farm boys for murder from the beginning of time.


Now, the Blackwater thugs are being exposed. So?


The corruption in this deadly, stupid campaign is breathtaking.
The NY Times editorial is overly polite, but on target.

The neuveau barbarians have to have a 'private' army to 'stir the pot' in the places where 'divide and conquer' must occurr.

Blackwater is the 'muscle' of the Pretorian Guard --- oops I mean Homeland Security.
