The Oversight Committee holds a hearing on Blackwater. The hearing examines the mission and performance of private military contractor Blackwater USA in Iraq and Afghanistan. Erik Prince, the owner of Blackwater, will testify as well as three State Department officials. The hearing specifically addresses three key questions: (1) Is Blackwater's presence advancing or undermining U.S. efforts? (2) Has State Department responded appropriately to the shooting incidents involving Blackwater forces? (3) What are the costs to U.S. taxpayers for the reliance on Blackwater and other private military contractors? Rep. Jim Cooper questions State Department officials on whether they are protecting Blackwater.

  • Speaker Nancy Pelosi

    Why do people praise a War Criminal? She still funds a criminal enterprise like Iraq yet says discussions of Impeaching the original crime lords is off the table. She can stop funding the war just as EASILY.

    Washington, D.C. Office - 235 Cannon HOB - Washington, DC 20515 - (202) 225-4965

    Wear her down with your VOICE. Tell her you know the TRUTH and aren't buying her bullshit anymore. Call her the War Criminal she is!

  • They don't ask the right questions. Like: Why do you think that Nouri Al Miliki tried to stop you from operating in their counrty? Do you think that its a conflict of interest for you to make more money as the security situation deteriorates which is a direct result of your companies actions? How can we ensure that you are acting according to applicable laws? Ask the hard questions.
