Blackwater’s role in Iraq
http://www.statesman.com/blogs/content/shared-gen/blogs/austin/opinions/entries/2007/10/10/blackwater_chinese_americans_a.html


We see the ideal taken over by fanatics. They are foreign-born and they have come to Iraq to kill.

They are paid by a foreign government. They do not want the war to end because that would be the end of the reason to be there. There are many complaints that the mainstream believers of the ideal do not raise their voices against the theft of the message.

I am raising my voice against the theft of the ideal. The ideals are freedom and democracy. The fanatics, who in many cases serve as the face of America, work for Blackwater USA. They are paid by my government.

Who will believe anything we say as long as they are allowed to stay in the country? Has this administration hit us with the sandbag so many times that we don’t feel anything?
