More Blackwater news as they are being investigated for sneaking silencers into Iraq as well as trying to steal Iraqi jet fighters. Meanwhile, since we are too busy paying mercs to operate in Iraq to pay for the war in Afghanistan, same mercs (including Blackwater) are being hired to provide helicopter support for our troops in that forgotten war.
Meanwhile, with the high volume of crimes, many causing deaths of our military and Iraqi civilians, being unpunished, a couple of guys hacking grades in California have received a quarter million dollar fine and 20 years in jail. I'm not saying you shouldn't be punished for breaking the rules, but some mercenary assclowns can shoot 17 civilians and not even get charged and these guys spend two decades behind bars for pumping up a GPA? Really?
More bad news concerning the dollar.
