Wow, neat trick And since the right wing complains about Obama not condemning Gaddafi strong enough, it is clear the right wing supports Bin Laden.

WHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH Private Army=Private Army DUH The only difference is WHO each private army is suppoting...and how well they are paid...

IDEAOLOGY... of those doing the shooting does seem to matter... Its ALWAYS been a lot easier to kill or shoot krauts, japs, gooks, slopes, hadji' and seems to now have progressed to skells and perps and now on to unbelievers. as defined by corporate policy..

You've heard reports about what, three incidents? And I'm still waiting for you to justify your assertions that Blackwater is somehow engaged in Christian Holy War. Particularly since I personally know one employee of theirs that is Jewish, and met in passing one contractor who worked convoy security/logistics support in the sandbox who, while not particularly religious, was raised Muslim. How's that fit your Crusader theory? QuoteThe end result is controlling a civilian population So did the French Foreign Legion run France? Are the Gurkhas running India?

Kennedy 0 #60 February 25, 2011 What, you think Jews and Muslims are part of a crusade for Christianity? Or did you miss the part about them working for Blackwater? Maybe next you'll tell us all how Blackwater is really part of the knights of Malta and working for the Rothschilds and Bildeburgers. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I realize you need to protect YOUR HEROs But mercenaries... are the same all over.... guns for hire. They also have a VERY checkered record the world over with respect to laws and the lives of those who might get in their way. Blackwater personell had no problem killing for no reason. I guess when they are supporting an "operation" in support of their crusading owners here, they will have the same disregard for life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, if you're going to call them crusaders, you can't really call them mercenaries without contradicting yourself, you know that right? Crusaders are the for the cause, not for the money. Mercenaries, by definition, are there for the money and don't care about the cause.

I would surmise that in THIS case there would be PLENTY willing to take up the Republican cause if their leaders gave them that mission. I do enjoy watching you squirm..... Blackwater can do things in this country that the military cant.. they need to exist in the black world... and watching YOU try to make them look like something they are not... is HILARIOUS.
