Chris Taylor, Blackwater VP of Strategic Initiatives

     This guy says mercenaries have a history back to the origin of America.  Of course, at that time, the mercenaries (as far as I can tell) all worked for the enemy.  Is Blackwater admitting it is an enemy of the United States?  I'd say so.

     According to US History.com "Hessians who remained in the British employ were hated and feared by the Americans, and the fact that George III had chosen to employ foreign mercenaries stirred up much anger among the colonists."  People are trying to learn the lessons of recent wars, and have forgotten our most important war.
