Agricoltura, Blackwater Renamed 'Academi,' Still No 'Integrity'
agricoltura | info | prezzo | dati | produzione
"U.S. Special Operations Forces have a brand new home in Afghanistan. It's owned and operated by the security company formerly known as Blackwater, thanks to a no-bid deal worth $22 million.
You might think that Blackwater, now called Academi, was banished into some bureaucratic exile after its operatives in Afghanistan stole guns from U.S. weapons depots and killed Afghan civilians. Wrong. Academi's private 10-acre compound outside Kabul, called Camp Integrity, is the new headquarters for perhaps the most important special operations unit in Afghanistan."*
It'll take more than a name change to blot out stealing weapons, killing innocent Afghans, war-profiteering no-bid contracts, and other war crimes. Cenk Uygur breaks down the latest chapter of Blackwater.

Well wouldn't you say you need every weapon you can get while your there??
-
Leave the country please.
-
I see no problem, they attack our cities and civilians, we bomb theirs. 😁
-
War is cruel, and and the crueler it is the better, because it the sooner it will e over.
-
Nobody wants to do the dirty work... Oooooooohhhh but they do...
-
Blackwater is not Academi. And Blackwater guys are neither heroes nor villains. They are men employed to do a very difficult job and at times make mistakes. Sometimes that cost lives. Because it is war. I wonder if this guy could do that job and get everything right every time.

Перевод охуительнейший просто
-
this guys an asshole this is a war that is fought with Iraq women and children being used as shields and pretty much fire and forget hand grenades
-
You people are the most ignorant motherfuckers I have ever seen
-
Do you get your facts from yahoo answers guy?
-
You go deal with these assholes everyday and then you can open your shit hole mouth boy.
-
Blackwater really outdid themselves with these bunch of astroturfers. They sound exactly like the frustrated adolescents who are bullied at school who you'd expect to come to the defence of something as despicable as a PMC, for no other reason than "Guns are cool" and "Im tough for liking PMCS".
-
You're a worthless piece of crap, who probably gets his "facts" off of some Al Jazeera website. You probably would support killing Americans over killing terrorist.
-
LOL... Academi is not Blackwater. The former Seal that founded BW got bought out and the entire senior management team has been replaced. They also setup a BOD.... so it's nothing like the old BW. Leave it up to this Vice liberal spin guy to sell everyone a half truth... The fact is the PSCs are as old as dirt and provide a much needed service. The liberals hate them so much the left a half dozen of them for dead in Libya... along with a US Ambassador!
-
Ok we get it. young Turks are Obama voters who support isis.
-
the towel heads are stupid. black water got bought by lynx global solutions. academi has been around before that fiasco in Iraq with black water
-
You are literally the definition of an idiot
-
KEEP IN MIND ALL THE SCUMB BAG JOURNALIST WHO ADE MILLIONS WRITING ANF SELLING BOOKS ABOUT GUYS WHI STUCK THEIR NECK FOR THEIR COUNTRY.
-
mercenaries are paid to fight. they are for sale! patriots my hairy ass. the mercs responsible for the murders of noncombatants are only murderers and should have been turned over to the Iraqi courts, instead of being lauded as "heroes" by neocons.
agree or disagree, i stand by my statement. trolls and you know who you are, can suck that buzzard cheney's dick if you want. but don't waste your time replying to me

PMCs my ass these guys are Mercenaries plain and simple.
