Blood Bonanza: UK private security firms eye Libya as new cash cow

[martinzopetazo]

if an aproaching car has no intentions of harming these PMC soldiers, and then they fire, is it a crime? or something? do they have legal permission to fire first?

[bodmon4lifee]

i was the 69th like :D

[adubrd1223]

sure, it looks unprovoked, but contractors fire on closely/quickly approaching vehicles because vbieds (car bombs) are killing contractors and soldiers left right and center. theyre shooting at the cars preventively, and as long as theyre shooting at the engine block, its somewhat accepted.

[sherhak]

is there any work on earth more truly evil than being a mercenary - just to kill for money. whoever pays more... regular military is ideological - defense, patriotism. but these fuckers, it's just money and the pleasure of killing.

[Smoke420Signals]

Thank you RT bring TRUTH!

[OlderG0ds]

This news station has more propaganda than any western news station including FOX.

LOL.

[ImS0SiriusVGNTWKs]

Gaddafi, you know you've won.

The Big Banks are screwing with you just because of high food and oil prices

I know you did nothing wrong. In fact, fight those who just wants a load of bullshit.

America cannot be isolated because they always gotta rule the fucking world, trying to get Iran, well, you know what? i hope we wake up before something goes bad.

Man, America and the UK can't shut the fuck up and get the hell out

[33333333333333331993]

UK hiring merceneries???? hahahahaha Gaddafi already has SERBIAN MERCENERIES the best of the best :) bwt gaddafi is already one step ahead of you

[casinohijack]

The demand for security get real the more security you have the worse things get. The security forces are only to protect the rich while the poor stay impoverished, while things get steadily worse in there own home countries. People need to get there heads out of the sand and wake up that our military is only out to protect the interest of big corporations and big government not the interests. Soldiers do not uplift humanity they kill humans and blow up mother earth how dumb is that?

[Rakshasa47]

[jojo1ukuk]

surprise surprise.

GADDAFI need to destroy all the western BIG COPORATION and OIL PORTS in libya now. ignore cia al qaeda.

[203207ab]

Screw you Nato and Turkey for supporting this WAR !!!!!!!!!

[noado51]

I know it sounds harsh but fighting to control oil has been going on for quite a long time and it is right to do so.Who controls oil controls the world. Oil is more important than gold to the industrialized world. Attacks on the oil rich countries where planed by Nixon and Kissenger and even before that. Shortly after Saudi Arabia nationalized it in 1948. Germany and Japan lost their wars due to oil shortages, then controlled by the USA. The flow of oil must not be intrerrupted.

[TheZenman2009]

America are limiting the number of troops being sent, but I think the French and British can handle the mission from here on. Rebels need to establish better communications with the nato forces to avoid friendly fire, but I think this war is winnable, give it time.

[TheZenman2009]

Oh when the Brits,

Oh when the Brit,

Oh when the Brits go marching in,

Oh when the Brits, go-marching in,

oh when the brits go marching in!

[locolalo1364]

Yeah! Moar Deaths! Moar Jobs! Moar Money for the Corporations!

[halfzombiehalfrobot]

Outraged

[envanje]

Killing contracts ? Is it this why we were liberated from the nazis ?

[harveybirdmannequin]

lol, the joke is on the mercenaries/private military contractors. They are getting paid in worthless USD! The more money the mercenaries demand, the more the USA has to print USD and the more worthless the currency becomes! This is empire.

People need to realize that just because there is no longer a "military draft/conscription" their wealth is still being conscripted/confiscated for purposes of war. Pay with lives or pay with wealth both are bad that's why you need to stop the wars of empire.

[IrishkaTDU]

все маленькие войны это тренировка перед одной большой

[slobomotion]

Fine, let them go there and get depleted uranium. They were hunting for workers for Iraq in 1992 or so, high pay, to "clean up and rebuild." The pay was outrageously high, but you had to stay for a year to collect. Several went from my nabe, they are dead now. Years ago. Secondary cannon fodder.

[fulcrumize]

Its all about Oil and money ! They don't give shit about rebels or people in Libya .

[floatingcompassmedia]

All world powers only care about money

[perezosoundercover]

SAS = Sionist Assasination Service?????????????

[faniboz1]

when you try to tell people the truth "wake them up" they arent willing to listen or dont want to hear the truth. I think this is because the truth isn't in the newspapers or on national TV or it will interfere with their materialistic lives.

[bkr360]

Right in your face they are admitting that the Libya thing is a Military Police State and hiring private security is just like the TSA in America, next there will be naked body scanners and full grope downs and sexual assaults get ready UK...

[medawon]

Bonanza time ? Its time rid the world of the UK / USA hierarchy and Zionist scumbags..hell bent on destroying the entire earth all in the name of there demonic reasoning they call " democracy" where the whole world must pay the Scum in order to be pawns & servants in there evil game...

Bless up 2 all the Libyans caught up in this unnecessary fu@kery !!

[shoaib568]

no value for human life USA/UK only care about money.

[ducklamb1]

of course,its profit at the suffering of others.gaddifi predicted all this back in the late 90s,back to the libya water project ,libya was soon to be self sustaining in energy,food,water and would have been major exporters in these areas also.all without any money(debt)from the world bank or imf(same thing).the out come of this shameful action in libya will be the libyans being in debt to the imf forever.like america and britian are now.i hate fucking war monger profiteering pricks.

[itchcitizen2]

@TheSpeckofdust just thank god they never invaded UK and used her for 200, the Immigrants pay taxes to the system that fucked over there home lands...win win for UK.

[itchcitizen2]

@TheSpeckofdust If your speaking in the name of culture then I hope culture world wide is destroyed...The amount of amazing people born in India is testament to how amazing India is.

[xReDxWatchx]

well surprise, surprise...

[kewlbassplayer]

What kind of world do we live in? :(

[topthickproducer]

fuck Mercenaries

[Laxcon]

@topthickproducer fuck the people who legalized Mercenaries!

[topthickproducer]

@Laxcon I wholly agree in condemning the Cheney/Rumsfeld & Neo-con crowd for legalizing Mercenaries.

But, still I think mercenaries are not innocent birds. So if you take a mercenary job, you know what you are getting into.

[111RobinHood]

And there we have it. We wage an exagerated and false war against terrorism which is an excuse for preemptive wars and the destruction of civil liberties at home. And now we have the terrorism committed by private contractors who work for multi international companies. America and other countries have been bankrupted by their own financial terrorism. It's always those governments who shout terrorism that they are the very ones that are committing them for profit: American invasion Iraq.

[mynoon1999]

Well if the UN, Russia and China won't tell us sent in troops then what can we do.

[DJCW]

0:37 ....UK spent $82m hiring private security firms?

The UK spending Dollars er...why? unless this story is aimed at the US public.

Do we know who and where these private firms are, in the UK?

These firms need to be exposed NOW!!

Don't forget the American Mercenaries and the scandal of Blackwater now called Xe in Iraq or the Apache helicopter "light em up" 33min video, gunning down civilians with a 50mm Cannon, pictures of torture, etc.

Not the best time to be gloating in retrospect is it?

[s4mweller]

@DJCW Probably, the first place to look for the security firms, is with those resposible for the recent census.

The forms were sent out by that old friend of the government, 'Capita'. The census data is being collated by the US arms company, 'Lockheed Martin'.

If the UK government is so strapped for cash, they must have some plan for making money out of Libya. They are certainly not there for any humanitarian reasons!

[pinball281]

lol shame on us english?,like we all got together and gave them the go ahead,i can understand tho its not asif USA has any skeletons in there closet or was once the most hated country in the world

oh wait

[Y0CL]

Mercenaries are the worst scum of this world.

[RPKGameVids]

Why the fuck were they shooting at innocent people in cars?

[DickOPlenty]

gaddafi was going to nationalize the oil industry in libya. that's why the west invaded: the oil companies - who use the U.S. military to secure for themselves the resources they want in the world & who get the politicians who are their puppets to go along with it by buying them with $ & who use the media to cover up or conveniently ignore the truth for them - wouldn't tolerate it. to compare all these people i mentioned to pigs would be an insult....to pigs. america better wake up. it's time.

[krisstopher07]

@DickOPlenty Wake up to what? More lies? 

[siryou41]

Its not their fault at least they are invited by the so called pro democracy fighters!!!

[peepeevagi]

@utsukushiiOto That's so fitting it's unnerving lol.

[peepeevagi]

@utsukushiiOto That's so fitting it's unnerving lol.

[beltonism]

We are going there to protect the corp..*cough* excuse me.. the civilians..

[akulabite]

Executive Outcomes was a PMC

[odzadze123]

This is harsh truth!

Shame on you English people,do something against this tyranny...

[S3CT1ON]

@odzadze123 Coming from an American ? USA is much worse than the UK.

[TheAlexagius]

@odzadze123 like........

[zOMGLaserGunzPewPew]

@odzadze123 lol. Oh please, the U.S. and the U.K. are equally shameful at the moment. How can you as an American call Shame when your own country is doing worse things at the moment. Focus on the U.S.'s problems first.

[toweronepower]

@odzadze123 Shame on your country and its people also.

[davethetank99]

@odzadze123 do some research and you will find that the Uk is not the only country with private security firms.....also,you cant blame an entire population for the actions of the few...so no shame on the English Scottish,Welsh or northern Irish people who populate the UK...I think Libya should sort out its own problems...why should the UK or anyone else help?

[dellbalboa]

You can always rely on an oppurtunist egg head mercenary to do your dirty work.
