Actually your wrong and off key here. Your speculating about Blackwater being an "employee" of Cheny's. The CIA performed all enhanced techniques to glean information from hostiles. Blackwater merley stood guard at the door, doing as they were told to do.
Blackwater is but one of many security contractors in the region. It made headlines but thats about it, in the sum of things they were not the best. Only the most talked about. BW loves to say they never lost anyone they were protecting however the fact is, no other security contractor lost anyone either. BW was just more noisey about that claim than others.
BW isn't taking any "fall" for any of the drone based attacks. Anyone who thinks this is the case is either out of touch or making things up for their own storylines. It is well known in the land of the Afhani who flys the attack birds...and who doesen't.

what was the precise date this took place? anyone?
erik whatever the blackwater fu#$chops was metaphorically torn up by a few of us on the ATS the other day.
I wonder if the CIA was like, those folks on the ATS are right! blackwater is bad!
then decided to kick him to the curb. ciao erik. see ya.
Here's my point. In reading headlines there is a sequence. Headline 1, CIA and BW cut ties. Headline 2, Washington (CNN) -- A U.S. counterterrorism official says there are "strong indications" a senior al Qaeda operation planner, Saleh al-Somali, was killed in a missile strike earlier this week. And so on. Thus the MSM tool is used to their capacity.
- From ABC
Al-Somali was believed killed in a drone strike Tuesday that likely was part of the CIA's continuing program that uses armed Predator drones to target al Qaeda terrorists operating along the lawless tribal areas of western Pakistan that border Afghanistan.

I see your point to your conclusion for sure now. And I agree to on the MSM tool. Its used over & over again. The CIA however maintains control over high value targets in that region.

Panetta canceled the contract earlier this year and the work is being shifted to government personnel, a person familiar with the contract said Friday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the classified program.
....Your right!

Same way AQ uses CNN (and weirdo Christian Ananpor) to spread these headlines:
www.cnn.com...
"Al Qaeda offers 'condolences' for innocent victims"
Ummm, no AQ is offering:
"We express our condolences to the families of the Muslim men, women and children killed in these criminal acts and we ask Allah to have mercy on those killed and accept them as shohadaa (martyrs),"
(Only Muslims because that's part of fard ayn).
While CNN is committing a treasonous sin against America with their appeasment to AQ (and CAIR) they also act as a tool to embolden and empower muslims toward their goal. Americans will only react from an armchair by the water cooler but muslims will gain power. Where that power leads only time will tell.
There is an art to reading between the lines. That's all I'm sayin.
