"Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army"

We must STOP the system of War for Profit..............this is a Crime Against Hue-Man-ity and we, the good citizens of the World must say enough is enough. We need healthy boundaries that says War for profit is not okay.

This Military Industrial Complex must be shut down and the Art of War must be an Historical Footnote in the rEvolution of Man. This too speaks to the Privatization of the U.S. Prison System that is incarcerating men and women for profit. They need bodies to stay in business and that translates into an economy that creates unjustifiable laws so that Corporations can make money.

We need to create a new world based on Love and Compassion, The Brotherhood of Man.

Peace

You are an idiot and don't know anything about US history. I suggest you go to Lafayette Square in and start there. Maybe someday you will see why mercenaries and guys like Blackwater need to exist.

Stupid Putz.
