Finally, the perfect weapon for Blackwater's hired cranks. It will
widen the
pattern of their mistakes, and eliminate pesky witnesses.
You know, at some point the Blackwater thugs are going to come home
from
Iraq and look for the same sorts of high-pay guard jobs here that they
had there. Perhaps the Iraqi "insurgents" would be doing the world a
public service if, instead of targeting uniformed U.S. soldiers, they'd
take out the Blackwaters.

No, he just says stuff like that to **** folks off..
No, bird brains, I don't.
Let's put it this way: U.S. troops wear this country's uniform, are
subject to at least a modest code of justice regarding their behavior in
places like Iraq, and are *serving their country* for modest pay. If they
screw up badly enough in Iraq in certain situations (like killing innocent
civilians), they face trials and possible imprisonment.
The Blackwater boys wear no country's uniform, are not subject to the
criminal laws of either Iraq or the United States in performance of their
"guard duty" over there, and are working as mercenaries for high pay. They
are not *serving* anything but their wallets. They kill and maim over
there with impunity and face no criminal justice system for their actions.

Even if those statements were true, how are they different from terrorist we
are fighting. Eh?
*If* Americans are going to die in Iraq, and apparently they are, I'd
rather it be the Blackwater thugs. That way, we'll have fewer of them back
home, and fewer problems.
Returning soldiers, on the other hand, are simply returning soldiers, and
with the proper social services, can be properly integrated back into
normal society.
Is this too abstract for you?
Some pretty sick comments Harry.
Since I am not in charge of who dies in Iraq, it really doesn't matter.
But my point stands: the returning soldiers are easily integrated back
into society. Mercenaries are not.- Hide quoted text -

How do you know this, just cause you wish it??

As I stated, perhaps too abstract for you.
