Mercenary Corporate (CIA, BLACK OPS. OIL COMPANIES?) Fighters?
Edited on Thu Aug-21-03 07:41 AM by Stanchetalarooni
I have been perplexed about a number of recent bits of information that I am trying to make sense of and I am wondering if anyone can help to address these concerns.

I have read reports that there are more American combat deaths in Irac than the US government is reporting. There have been reports of mass (2, 5, 10....?) graves of US combat soldiers.

It was reported that the newsman who was killed by US tankers had discovered the graves of these American combatants.

Are there mercenary combatants on the ground in Irac that are not attached to any US military branch but operate in the dark?

If so then who are they beholden to and who do they work for?

Do these guys become nameless once they expire?

Do they work in the interests of the US or the BFEE or the nationless corporate pigs or......are my suppositions just a figment of my wild imagination?

1. An accurate US casualty count might erode support for the War on Terror

That means it's a national security risk.

Knowing exactly who is doing what and paid by whom in Iraq and a number of other countries also might erode support for the War on Terror.

2. been a few threads similar to this one
talking about private soldiers and such. If that's the case and (put tin foil hat on here) well could be, I doubt we'll ever hear about it until a US military official finds out and gets pissed or a reporter stumbles onto something and lives

3. There may well be additional "troops" in play
The FBI and the CIA, are there.
(I wonder if the FBI should be renamed the GBI for "Global Bureau of Investigation")
Dyncorp is there.
IDF is there.

I would imagine their task is quite in tune with the overall objective of the current administration.

I don't think it is a mere figment of anyone's imagination.
