this is exactly my point. a need for them (on some level) has developed, but the extent of the company's reach is what is dangerous. that's what i was talking about when i said 'dig deeper' a few posts above. i don't mean dig deeper into what the news media has chosen or been told what to report. dig into the actual facts about these companies (i.e. who they are, who they know, where they've been, and where they're going) and you'll start to see the big picture. it's not some conspiracy theory, it's the cold hard truth about what is going on.
i also found it interesting how Blackwater was told to leave Iraq... and that they did nothing of the sort. refer back to the above posts concerning Blackwater getting away with anything. no laws anywhere apply to them.
Bane - the tactical training is the 'good side' of Blackwater. they are professionals and their training programs really are second to none. if you are in law enforcement or the military or have the cash and desire, Blackwater's training facilities are the "one stop shop" (as the like to say). it's just really sad that the quality training has to be tied to such a terrible group of businessmen and politicians with their own agendas and that overseas, blackwater opperates in such a horrible way.
