POPSSix Blackwater Guards 'May' Be Charged in Iraq Massacre Immunity and impunity have gone hand in hand. Representative Jim McDermott. "The private contracting thing is the most erosive thing that this administration has done. You look at all the things that are being run by private contractors, you simply cannot be handing money to a private contractor who is not under the law of that country or the law of this country and can do anything they want. They're really -- they're rogue outfits." Blackwater and at least 300 other companies have been hired by the US government for privatized armed services in Iraq to the tune of about $6 billion in taxpayer money..

POPSBlackwater Busted, Prince Has "Compliance Challenges" Makes one smile. The arrogant Prince of Blackwater just got nailed with a big fine from the same corrupt Federal government they contracted with. The "war on terrorism" is so profitable. What happened to all the hardware that ended up on the black market in Iraq? (Someone knows). "Compliance challenges", he says. More like rogue operations. This is the same company that shoots whoever is in the area and quickly leaves, whose crimes even U.S. military personnel have reported. Dirty mercenaries are never held accountable for war crimes because they are independent contractors. This is the least the State Dept has on them, just the tip of the proverbial ice berg. Iraq wants to try them there.

All the while being asked to BAIL OUT, FIGHT IN WARS and look the other way while the rich get busted for drugs <> but don't do the jail time -- do serious crimes both financial and sexual and get away with it <> and still want to serve terms yet! Look at Bloomburg -- sure he didn't want Gulianni to serve again (not like I liked him - he's scum!) but yet because he's rich or should I say they -- he's getting another term < > do they listen to the majority of the tax payers NO of course not..

POPSDesperate for his 15 minutes of Fame? What first looked like a classic "shoot yourself in the foot" via Facebook may actually be a bid to grab attention, whether by the initial subject or some of his "friends." Either way, eyes were made to open, hey? Good thing.

POPSDubai: Boom and Busted One of the two was in Dubai to set up a business enterprise in the booming city. He was, obviously, unaware of the conservative Muslim influence. Suffice it to say, I have no plans to go get arrested in Dubai.
