Racist pay structure pffft, I would gladly pay more for a former Navy Seal than I would to some ex army soldier from the third world. I also dont agree that they arent serving anyone but the US, so what if they hire out, they are fighting the US's war. It keeps the draft from happening and if they want to go to Iraq let them. Even though they are "bad guys" as Scahill says, wars need people like that. If Iraqis dont play by the rules... why should we?

Soldiers from Chile, Columbia, etc. were all trained by the US military at the 'School of the Americas'. They are the equals of the US soldiers working for Blackwater.

The Iraqi's resistance to it is a legitimate response. The US invasion and occupation of Iraq is an act of aggression, illegal under US and International war.

i just cant understand how these people can abuse power, while the rest of world is watching

I've said it once, and I'll say it again. Democracy doesn't work unless the people are educated. What we essentially have now is a corporate tyranny with elections every four years.

Americans have become some of the most ignorant, misinformed, politically unsophisticated people in the world today -- and that's NOT an accident. Our 'government' hasn't been legitimate for at least the last 45 years since the Johnson coup & JFK murder/coverup. The US's constant foreign interventions & wars on behalf of corporations have led to untold misery & violence, exploited for our war industry & larcenous politicians. Now, American citizens are being exploited as the 3rd world has been.

At last a brave man who tells the truth. Reality became more unbelievable than fiction. The US is becoming a country that do the most horrible things in name of National Security and money. Wake up people

You answered your own question.

"the rest of world is..." JUST "...watching"

[TheWeatherMan2012]

You did a great job getting this info together!

Jeremy's comments are accurate but can be misleading. Columbians guard our embassy at in the Green Zone. They don't combat Iraqis.

As far as I can see, everything that is happening now is a consequence of what happend in 1913, the privatization of the US money supply. The Federal Reserve is the source of power for these chicken hawks.

"If Iraqis dont play by the rules... why should we?" I think the idea is we want to be a modicum better than the people we're decrying as being murderous thugs. I can't believe you're even asking this. Immoral bastard.
