Re: Blackwater loses license in Iraq

Well, if they wanted us out, that was the best way to do it. No one is going to stay there without protection and the military doesn't have time to do private security. This is going to be the begining of an UGLY MESS! But, with all due respect to the civilians of Iraq, there needs to be some sort of governing power over these guys. One of my bros was over there for a year doing security for the military. He said these guys make more in a week than he did in a month and he is a Captain. He also said they don't have to answer to anyone. That is unless one of their principles get's hit, then they have to answer. It goes down like this....if a car approaches them from the rear, the military will give one warning shot, these guys just open fire on the car. My bro has seen this with his own eyes. He said if they are approaching an area that happens to have livestock in the road, they will just open fire and drive through. The military usually stops and takes up position to make sure it's not an ambush. But, they don't just start killing these people's livestock. I know it phuked up over there, I've heard from guys who have been in the **** of it, but there still needs to be some order. These private contract guys give our country a bad name with some of the stuff the do. And, I've been told, it's not just our guys, there are ones from other countries doing it to. But, who do you think get's the blame? yep, we do.

Re: Blackwater loses license in Iraq

lol... this is funny because its makes two sides happy.

first the insurgents and the Iraki gov.

Why?

There a nice trend in Muslim army, troops and wars since guns exist is that they use human shield. Well they dont have the same look at human life as we do I guess. So they knew that BW convoy was passing by, no big deal, you see them billion of miles with their big Yukon all brand new driving like crazy. They attacked in a square where lot of civilians were, they hide in the crowd and opened fire, they knew that civilian casualties would occured and blackwater would be hold responsible, nice setup!

as for the Iraki gov, these merc are not entitled to the rules and laws, so they are a pain in the ass to follow.
