What Tim said is exactly correct but the folks that wrote the little story above are absolutely clueless and more dangerous than anyone I have met in a Private Security Company. They are more dangerous because they will believe anything that is in print if it suits their agenda. Instead of trying to find the facts they latch on to whatever is printed then rank and rave about things they have absolutely no clue about. If they would take a little time to do some honest research then they would not have wasted their time printing useless information based on a poorly written and basically untrue AP article. I know because I watched the raid as it occurred. Finally someone that has common sense and a brain.

If you really believe Blackwater can walk in and raid another company in Kabul (or anywhere else on the planet earth) you may need to borrow some brain cells my friend - this is the real world. Blackwater has a contract which specifies exactly what their duties and responsibilities are and if they step one foot outside the boundaries of that contract they can be fined heavily, lose the contract and lose the privilege of working on other Department of State contracts worldwide. Think they are going to risk all that to see what a second rate competitor like USPI is up to? Get a life mate.
