Bill Moyers Journal, airing Friday, October 19th at 9 on PBS, examines what's behind Prince's recent blitz of television interviews defending his private security firm when officials in Iraq said they wanted the company out of their country in the wake of the shooting deaths of Iraqi civilians on September 16.

Erik Prince "crosses the Rubicon". I am glad there are reporters like Scahill who notices and has the guts to report and speak out against it. I wouldn't want Erik Prince to think I was an enemy of his. I wonder what all those mercenaries will be called on to do once they return from Iraq ?

In October, the Army plans to station an active unit inside the US for the first time to serve as an on-call federal response in times of emergency. The division will be under the control of US Army North. The Army Times says this mission is the 1st time an active unit has had a dedicated assignment to Northern Command. The unit may be called to help with civil unrest & crowd control. Soldiers are learning to use "nonlethal" weapons designed to subdue unruly or dangerous individuals and crowds.

Why do you assume he's a Democrat-because he talks like he has a brain in his head? Because he actually reports the news?

What abuses did the blackwater guys commit whie they were in new orleans? and as for the looters only stealing persihable goods i have heard sory after story of people raiding department stores and there being nothing left on the shelves. I guess televisions stereos and Cds and movies are non perishable items now. i cant blame a rich person for hiring personal security. I would want to do everything to keep my shit from getting looted if i had the money also
