Ok....... Lets just all lay down and die...... Because no one wants to get the job done.
The attitude that Americans dont need black water Tripple canopy.... Etc is puritanical.
Ignorant of the truth too.
They are high end security guards. They do not soldier.
As such they don't follow the same rules troops do, but often use the same tools.
Did you know the Army has to "call in" to their local command to get any fire power heavier than 308? That the army soldiers in the streets are not carrying 40mm grenades or frags as a regular battle load?
The Army is so god damn hamstrung over bad press that they are not allowed to fight to win. And in that respect they will "loose" alot like Viet Nam when Obama pulls them out.
It will be like Saigon all over again.
Blackwater does a job with no grenades too most of the time, and little fire support. Their job includes escorting good guys thru a war zone. Their rules are simple. See a threat - engage and escape.
Bad guys shoot from crowds, and mosques and schools.
BW, TC, Etc shoot back .... Booo Hoo.
Get a set of balls, and stand up and realize these men and women who work for PMC are not MERCs. They are fighting the good fight.
The press is the enemy, and so are 1/2 of the politicians.
Get over it and get behind it, or get out of the way.
Rant off.
