Blackwater Chief To Flee the Country?

Three unnamed sources tell The Nation that Blackwater owner Erik Prince
may be planning a permanent vacation to the United Arab Emirates in the
wake of federal indictments against top company executives.

Prince has not yet been hit with any formal accusations, but his closest
deputies are facing conspiracy, weapons, and obstruction of justice
charges, and there's reason to suspect that he'll be targeted next. Last
year, two former employees testified that Prince had transported "illegal"
weapons into Iraq and that "Mr. Prince and his employees murdered, or had
murdered, one or more persons who have provided information, or who were
planning to provide information, to the federal authorities about the
ongoing criminal conduct."

In 2008, two Blackwater employees were indicted for murder after a
shooting in Afghanistan, and The Nation reports that Prince is currently
facing several new civil lawsuits, including one put forth by the
company's Iraqi victims. The company has spent the past several years
trying to duck bad press—it has renamed itself "Xe Services" and the "US
Training Center"—but the efforts have largely been unsuccessful.

At the moment, Blackwater is the target of multiple federal
investigations, which Prince has likened to a "giant proctological exam."
Because Blackwater is so deeply entangled in classified government
activity, The Nation speculates that Prince may be laying the groundwork
for amnesty by participating in "graymail"—threatening to leak sensitive
data in order to escape prosecution. He's also been shedding parts of the
multimillion dollar company over the past several months. Earlier this
year, Prince sold Blackwater's aviation division for $200 million, and
last week, he put the whole thing up for sale. With the government closing
in, internal sources tell The Nation that Blackwater's "sale is going to
be a fast move within a couple of months" and that Prince is on his way
out. The UAE does not have an extradition treaty with the United States,
which is likely a key factor in Prince's decision. According to
international law expert Scott Horton, the Emirates are "definitely a
jurisdiction where Prince could count on it not being simple for the US to
pursue him legally."

No need to pursue him legally if he flees to the UAE...just have him shot.
