Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Wednesday, October 24, 2007

Heavier guns and sturdier trucks would not have saved a team of Blackwater USA guards brutally killed in March 2004 after being lured by corrupt Iraqi forces into a well-planned ambush, the embattled private security contractor contends in a report to Congress. This conclusion sharply contradicts the findings of a congressional investigation led by House Democrats and a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the families of the four slain guards.

Blackwater is cast in both as an incompetent, penny-pinching outfit that sent an undermanned and poorly equipped detail through Fallujah, a known insurgent stronghold 40 miles west of Baghdad.


Not the first time I have heard this about Blackwater.

Profits over safety.

You got a problem with capitalism?
Regulation and government oversight is commie talk.

They must use the same safety manual as KBR-Kill'em bag'em replace'em.

Gee, go figure Blackwater would admit no wrongdoing. Of course they have no proof.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice ordered cameras to be placed in Blackwater vehicles earlier this month, following a Sept. 16 shooting incident in Baghdad, in which the firm's agents are accused of killing as many as 17 Iraqi civilians.



But Blackwater officials said the company first asked the State Department's law-enforcement arm, the Bureau of Diplomatic Security (DS), to take that step on May 17, 2005, "in response to a false accusation against one of our teams in Baghdad."

In a war famous for corruption and mismanagement the issue of the contractors stands out as the best example. Blackwater and Erik Prince make it clear to the entire world that thugs are what America sends to Iraq while the Bush administration pretends to seek an end to the violence and a restoration of the rule of law.
Absolutely unacceptable to have these highly paid mercenaries killing people under the banner of the American State Dept. without any fear of being held accountable. Each day that goes by the ugly stain on American history grows larger and uglier than anything we ever expected to witness in our lifetimes. Blackwater makes me very ashamed of America, Bush is responsible for this disgusting insult to the principles on which America was founded. Nancy Pelosi are you in a coma or are you a Rethug yourself?

Gee, go figure Blackwater would admit no wrongdoing. Of course they have no proof.

Proof is the burden of the accuser.

Redman,

What planet are you living on?

You get your little hands covered in blood you better have a very good reason.

why are you so kissing contractor ass now? I thought all neo-cons have gone quiet on them since it is so obvious they are corrupt. Aren't you the same people who also want to try/convict/execute as soon as possible for your average person but now want full burden of proof for scumbags like Price?

""Of course they have no proof.""

Eye witness accounts are usually considered good evidence.

""Proof is the burden of the accuser.""

Charging is the burden of the government...oops...forgot....
they have immunity to kill with impunity.

"Viva Bush!!!" (Former Chilean dictator Pinochet's thugs who now work for ..... Blackwater.)

Eye witness accounts are usually considered good evidence.

Eyewitness accounts from Muslims? These are the same people who will tell you that the building that you destroyed because they were firing rockets at you was a religious school.

Oh, you mean Muslims lie like the Bush administration Redman???
So, now I get it. We send Blackwater to a Muslim country, accusations about crimes are made, we won't accept the testimony of Muslims about those crimes. Sort of a pretty good Catch 22.
Irrelevant anyway since the thugs have immunity.
Donchathink???

Eye witness accounts are usually considered good evidence.

Time for you to see the movie "Twelve Angry Men" because your usual prejudice is showing....and it's UGLY.

Redman,

You hypocritical little fuck. All 2 billion muslims are automatically untrustworthy by your opinion but fucking Mercs led by a shitbag like Prince are to be given a fair chance even though everyone says they are scum - US State dept, US military, former Blackwater Mercs and even Allah forbid the Iraqis.

Go crawl in your little racist hole shitball.

Hell no!! We can't let no lying Muslims be making no charges against the former thugs of Pinochet and Milosovic. That would be wrong.

Danni,


101 took some dumps and is now serving a 14-day suspension. A few of us decided we'd fill in during his absence.....


So, Manni.

Where do you have the most grays?

A. Your mullet
B. Your mustache
C. Your armpits


PS - how did I do?

JeffJ,

You forgot to declare that you won the argument, made Danni cry and that you will prove your mommy wrong by building a powerful self-image that every liberal will fear.

Furio,

You are characterizing Rob, not 101Chairborne.

That said, I'd be willing to bet that Danni is crying right now cuz I poked fun at her.

We all need to do our share to throw another shovel full of primary narcisssitic supply of shit onto the old 101Chairborne pile of misery.

Furryhole,

You've got Chairborne flu when he isn't even here?

Dance puppet, dance.

Jeff,

Um weren't you the one who brought him up in the first place?

What are you doing trolling for the shadows of douchebags of drudgeretort past?

Why didn't they buy their own fucking cameras? They make billions off the American taxpayer, and then ask us to buy them fucking videocameras? Fuck you Blackwater, and fuck you Erik Prince.

101 must be pretty fascinating to Jeff and some of the others here who post from the security of their closets.

Montecore,

Very interesting point. Just about every police vehicle in the world now has video cameras. You would also think a corporation would also want to be able to prove their just cause in actions as well. Guess Greywater thought they were going to be protected by BushCo regardless of their actions and felt the cameras would be more of a liability than protection.

Furio,


My "Furry-hole" comment was under the guise of my filling in for 101.

Danni,

The guy really adds to the hilarity of this place.

JeffJ,

Do you have a life? Or is chairpuppet a masturbation fantasy of yours?

Yeah,
Laughing at retards only goes so far. Someone who is actually funny is worth coming here for.

Fury-o's

Do you have a sense of humor? Feel free to reveal it in your posts.

Hey Lee,

Are you, chairpuppet and Jeff all the same person? Sort of douche trinity?

Furryhole,


The only douche trinity you're gonna know is when I take your mom's discarded douche and wrap it around your 3 remaining fingers!


Sincerely,

Frank Cotton

Well Jeff I guess you will finally be able to smell vaginal juices on your fingers for the first time in your life. L'Chaim you are now a man!

Well Jeff I guess you will finally be able to smell vaginal juices on your fingers for the first time in your life.


Actually, I have to wipe your wife's vaginal juices off my dick every day.


Please tell her that I said she needs to peel off about 20 bills.

awe little Jeffy is getting angry. What's wrong chairpuppet isn't around for you to chow down on and now you have to pretend you are hetero?

On the flipside I doubt you get laid once in a year let alone once a day. Second who did you steal money from trailer trash?

Jeff you are being very ambifaguous when are you just going to declare yourself Gay, buy a double wide with Chairpuppet and let the rest of us alone?

Deaths of innocents "unavoidable" ?

If you weren't there it wouldn't have happened.
Completely, 100% avidable, you ignorant weasels.

Angry?


I am having a blast.


Second who did you steal money from trailer trash?


Huh?

If that's in reference to my 20 bills comment, you've misconstrued what I was saying.

In this case bills = pounds. I was trying to cleverly say that your wife is fat.

Jeff next time chairpuppet gives you a donkeypunch make sure he does you a favor and shoves your colon back up your ass. This rough gay sex seems to be too hard on you and is causing you delusions of heterosexuality.

No offense to Jeff and Furio but you really ought to take your humorous pissing match to the nooner, this thread is about Blackwater and really isn't that funny.

Fair enough, Danni.


You are absolutely correct.

Geez, Danni. You certainly stuck a fork in this thread. Thanks alot.

"""Eyewitness accounts from Muslims? These are the same people who will tell you that the building that you destroyed because they were firing rockets at you was a religious school."""

First u.s. military on the scene corroborated eyewitness accounts. But then again, the u.s. soldiers lie about raping and killing little girls then killing their entire families, killing innocent civilians. Maybe the u.s. gov't or army? Oh, right...they lie about torture, they lie to convince everyone to get involved in an illegal war, they lie about the costs associated with the illegal war, and to top it off: they lose billions upon billions of dollars.

I tell ya, who can you believe or trust these days?

I had no idea the military and goverment had so many dem's in it..... good point pancho....

Don't forget they lie about the illegal aliens too Pancho.... don't forget them...

No "They Were Expendable" films about these guys, eh? Mercernaries profiting over there who fall victim to the violence we have exported over there do not get my compassion. I do feel bad for their families, but, geez...that's like choosing to vacation in Israel....what are you thinking about? If you don't value your life than why would anyone else?
As far as the capitalism v. commie statement from that numb-nuts 726...are you kidding me? You act like you're getting paid here. you're probably a poorslaving sucker like the rest of us. Now I really understand how morons like Bush get us to do their bidding...

deaths were due to lead poisoning
