Why do we need less oversight and why does "things aren't pretty" justify anything? I dunno.. call me an idealist (that should make some people chuckle) but isn't hiring someone to violate international law/human rights the same thing as doing it yourself? If the purpose of hiring these guys is to do things we can't do on our own, isn't that essentially an admission that we know we're violating international law by proxy?
