1. I am not surprised by Eric Prince's attitude coming from Holland Michigan ...my home town.

You've never seen a town with so many ignorant self righteous hypocritical assholes as Holland. I am sooooo glad I moved out a long time ago.

2. Erik Prince is nuts!!

This guy wants to attack Nigeria, Yemen, AND Saudi Arabic? LOL...Yemen may be a pushover, but the Saudis and Nigerians wouldn't fall so easily. Nigeria has one of the fastest growing economies in the Africa and a growing middle class. They have a very structured military consisting of a Navy and Air Force (that oil money has been put to use I see). The Saudis have more at their disposal...not to mention being the damn homeland of the Muslim faith. Way to go Prince...let's piss off every Muslim on the fact of the earth more than we already have by invading their Holy Land.

3. Napoleon lives!

As the mother of three fiercely independent children, they've had their rounds with spoiled rich kid bully types. Sooner or later they all got advice in the form of the same comeback, in this setting, it would go: Clearly barbaric behavior is a topic he can speak to with some expertise. Exile this man on an island with horny monkeys, he's toxic to all who can comprehend the garbage that spews from his blue blooded two prong tongue.

Thanx teach! Tip o' the chin to Mr. Schahill too, your work sir, courageous and impeccably composed! Tell me there will soon come a day when this rabid war dog and his gospel of vile bias will have to be hurled from behind bars.

4. Scahill

Boy, this guy has it in for uber patriot Eric Prince, doesn't he?

Hey, Jeremy, leave our Eric alone!

Prince runs his life and his mercenary corporation as if he answers to no one. Nice work if you can get it.

Prince is the Idi Amin of American patriotism, isn't he?

9. Hey, Jeremy, leave our Eric alone!

Eric should be in a max security prison... I mean there's no doubt. He needs real psych help.


And Jeremy, on the other hand, is sexy as hell.

5. I hope I live long enough

to see Eric Prince tried, convicted and jailed. Such a scary "Christian!"

K&R for Jeremy

6. Of all the disturbing things that have come to pass since Bush

was installed ... the rise of private armies such as Blackwater is the most disturbing to me. Good on Jeremy Scahill and you, Thom, for keeping us informed about them.



No Private Armies!!

7. I'm surprised

I'm surprised Jeremy has not yet been in a small plane crash.

It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when.

And if he doesn't use small aircraft, they'll just take down any 747 with Jeremy on it. These guys pride themselves on being that ruthless, after all.

I wish I was employed so I could have enough money to go on The Nation cruise with Jeremy and other lefty celebs this fall! After all, how many times in your life will you get the opportunity to meet somebody you know is going to be assassinated?

8. I posted in December of 2008 on DU that the next step is that

Xe/Blackwater will eventually torture US citizens in this country if they have not already done so. This corporation needs to be bankrupted and destroyed. It is a danger to this country. They have opened the door to private corporations totally taking over and running the USA. I realize the Hitler word is taboo here but it needs to be use in the case of Erik Prince. He needs to be stopped before it is too late.


Imagine this over your home. Who will they kill next? When will Blackwater privatize torture?
Are you willing to let them. Speak out now. End corporate rights!
