Blackwater's Licence in Iraq is Terminated

No, not at all.

SF and Blackwater generally have different missions. In no way am I privy to any type of secret information. Just observations I made because my missions brought me in proximity of them once in a while.

Perhaps missions that would be better off with less oversight. Things that happen during times of war aren't pretty sometimes.

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?
