BLACKWATER: AMERICA'S WHITE ARMY?


www.afterdowningstreet.org

LOOKING at another bunch of photos we noticed a total absence of black troops. In fact, we couldn't remember a photo of a black Blackwaterista.

If their employees are inordinately white and are being paid much higher salaries by the government than the heavily black government troops, shouldn't a public interest lawyer or two find that interesting?

What does a private army the size of Blackwater do when it doesn't like the way its own country is going? How afraid should we be?

The last question is a very good one. What is the current enrollment in the Blackwater army?
How many troops, aircraft, etc?
At what point do they become a threat to our own government if we cut off their funding?

Now that I think about it... I would rather have these thugs in another country than back at home with nothing to do.

Interesting that is mention of the race profile of blackwater, I never thought about that one.

It will be interesting to know if they belong to some kind of supremacy group.

This one is hard to swallow taking into consideration that they are backed by our government and pay with tax payer money.

You do know that a good percentage of the US Army is white right?

www.armyg1.army.mil...
As of 2005, the US Army was about 63.9% White in the enlisted ranks and 77.6% White in the officer ranks.

I know that caucasians make up the majority or the race profile of the US military, but I didnt think it was that much. I figured that it was more like whites 50% and blacks, asains, latinos, etc all add up to the other 50% that seems about right to me.

But even if your figures are correct, thats still a striking difference to Blackwater which may have just a handful of specialists or linguists who are non-white... IF THAT!
