Reading On The Toilet

This should be the top story on the national news every night for a week. Why is this not a bigger story?

Xe most definitely needs to be flushed down the toilet. Read the testimony of John Doe 1 and John Doe 2 if you have any doubts. What the hell is the Obama administration doing keeping Blackwater/Xe lunatics on the payroll?!?!? Courtesy of US taxpayers, they’re getting another 20 million dollars to continue on their crusade in Iraq. From The Nation:

Mr. Prince intentionally deployed to Iraq certain men who shared his vision of Christian supremacy, knowing and wanting these men to take every available opportunity to murder Iraqis. Many of these men used call signs based on the Knights of the Templar, the warriors who fought the Crusades.

In The Nations follow up article we hear that at least some in government are pissed about this:

“These contracts with Blackwater need to stop,” says Representative Jan Schakowsky, an Illinois Democrat and a member of the House Select Committee on Intelligence. “There’s already enough evidence of gross misconduct and serious additional allegations against the company and its owner to negate any possibility that this company should have a presence in Iraq, Afghanistan or any conflict zone–or any contract with the US government.”

There are plenty of bloggers talking about the Obama administration continuing to support Xe, but where is the mainstream media in all this? I guess they’re too busy with the likes of Michael Jackson and Jon and Kate…
