Blackwater
Lately it seems like the War on Terror is just a cover up for the Blackwater operations.
I mean the Republicans who are protecting their contractors and businessmen in Iraq are definately more important to the economy of the USA than are a bunch of yahoo midwestern kids who can't better themselves unless they "defend our country" and join the US military, aren't they?
I mean, come on, we should be doing all we can to protect our own citizens and if it means hiring professional paramilitary body guards who don't have to adhere to the rules of engagement that's fair, isn't it?
So what if the "enemy" doesn't see the difference between hired thugs and our real military? We have to protect our assets.
What a shame that seems to be the defense of such Blackwater actions. It seems ironic that the Blackwater people actually wear black. Reminds me of the Nazi "elite" stormtroopers who also wore black. It also makes me wonder what other comparisons between the two can be made.
