Since the revelation earlier this week of allegations by two former employees of security firm Blackwater that its owner was complicit in murder in order to cover up the deliberate killing of Iraqi civilians, explosive charges have continued to emerge.

Perhaps the most shocking of those charges — quoted by MSNBCs Keith Olbermann on Thursday from the employees sworn declarations — is t More..hat Blackwater was guilty of using child prostitutes at its compound in Baghdads fortified Green Zone and that owner Erik Prince knew of this activity and did nothing to stop it.

The declarations describe Blackwater as having young girls provide oral sex to Enterprise members in the Blackwater Man Camp in exchange for one American dollar. They add even though Prince frequently visited this camp, he failed to stop the ongoing use of prostitutes, including child prostitutes, by his men.

One of the statements also charges that Princes North Carolina operations had an ongoing wife-swapping and sex ring, which was participated in by many of Mr. Princes top executives.

According to the two former employees, Blackwater supervisors in Iraq sometimes sent men back to the United States for wanting to kill ragheads, excessive drinking, steroid use, or failure to follow weapon safety procedures, but Mr. Prince and his executives would send them back with a reprimand to the supervisor for costing the firm money. Blackwater even fired those mental health professionals who were not willing to endorse deployments of unfit men.

The former employees additionally state that Prince was engaged in illegal arms dealing, money laundering, and tax evasion, that he created a web of companies in order to obscure wrong-doing, fraud, and other crimes, and that Blackwaters chief financial officer had resigned stating he was not willing to go to jail for Erik Prince.

Prince has repeatedly insisted his company has done nothing wrong and Blackwater — now renamed Xe — continues to fulfill its contracts with the United States government

  • Criminals, sure, but not common? These are special nutters. Do we really want them back on home soil now that they're demon-possessed and hallucinatin' that they're Christians?

  • american forces and thier filthy mercs are nothing but common criminals... they should be called terrorists not resistance who defend thier land!

  • When you consider GWB neither does America, When you consider HIStory neither do Christians

  • I see ignorance like yours all the time and it is sad. I love my country. I am ashamed of my government. If you don't wake up you will be shocked when you figure out how much freedom you have lost and are losing daily. Your real estate is being taken right out from under you ! You niave sheople. You won't recognize this country if we continue the way we are going. The US has been and is empire building and is falling like Rome. But hey hang on to your pride.The gov. will save you.

  • You can do some checking but I think Obama has added some more Blackwater to replace troops withdrawn from Iraq. Two sides of the same coin. Time to stop taking party sides and become human beings and Americans that realize the government is corrupt on both sides of the isle. A true conservative is not a warmonger. I am a conservative. try finding out what it really means.~Peace
