The private army of Bush killers that slaughtered women and children on orders and training of their gestapo masters at Blackwater were no longer the decorated soldiers from our military. These killers were part of Bush's trained assassins that routinely murder and rape women and children in a reign of terror. That is why Bush and Erik Prince formed this private Blackwater army so their gestapo training would allow these former brave soldiers to torture, maim, and kill in order to strike terror in the civilian population. Bush and Prince should be on trial here and the former decorated soldiers be confined to a psychiatric ward until they are rehabilitated.

"These killers were part of Bush's trained assassins that routinely murder and rape women and children in a reign of terror" And yet the savior Obama leaves Gates in charge of defense. Sorry Billy, if anyone sounds like the Gestapo, it would be you. Scary stuff.

These men have nothing to do with Bush you fools. Blackwater is a privately owned firm hired by American and Foreign Corporations to protect their employees working in dangerous areas of the World. South America and Africa are some of Blackwaters most notable areas of use for American businesses. Blackwater works everywhere and is the best known security company in the World. When Obama went to Iraq while campaigning this year, he used Blackwater as his security team. Blackwater is regularly used for security in Africa for American and foreign business security. Bill Gates and George Soros use Blackwater when traveling abroad to violent nations as do most major Corporate Executives. Bush has nothing to do with Blackwater. They are not asassins or Mercenaries, they don't fight wars, they are paid to be the best security company in the World. You stupid liberals try to blame everything on Bush, open your eye's he's been the democrat scape goat for eight years.

The key here is going to be guardianship of U.S. personnel globally. With Clinton as SoS, the U.S. will not commit U.S. forces unilaterally during Obama's presidency. U.S. forces act under a separate set of ROE under status of forces agreements and cannot be used whereas agencies like Blackwater can. What seems odd about this entire indictment is the use of law enforcement ROE in a combat zone and applying the machine gun rule is ludicrous. The state department was neglectful in their contract to Blackwater in establishing rules of engagement for this type scenario. The contract between the state department and Blackwater should be brought into this case.
