I know we all wonder about these BLACKWATER guys..
What is their real mission???
Blackwater and me: A love story it ain't
I know something about Blackwater USA. This opinion is both intellectually driven as well as moderately emotional. You see, during my own yearlong
tour in Iraq, the bad boys of Blackwater twice came closer to killing me than did any of the insurgents or Al Qaeda types. That sort of thing sticks
with you. One story will suffice to make my point.
Every time one of those Blackwater convoys drives an Iraqi civilian off the road because the most important thing in the world is the protection
of their "principal," they make a new enemy for the United States. Every time they ram another car to clear the way (and, yes, I've seen them do
that), so that they could maintain their own speed and thereby minimize their exposure to "improvised explosive devices," they make another enemy.
Every time they kill innocent civilians, or wound them, they make whole families of new enemies.
I must say this is the way we were taught to drive.We all knew this technique could make us more enemies but I have to say its alot better than being
stuck in traffic in the middle of IRAQ.
I bring this up to say what if our training is a part of the plan?What if we were unknowly trained to make more enemies??
