pecuniumKathryn Cramer points something out.
We know what Blackwater does when someone does something, "against policy". They fire them.
So Congress ought to start issuing subpoenas. First the personnel records.
Then the actual personnel.
We have 122 people to look up; call before the senate/house.
People who won't have the money to hire the sorts of counsel and influence which the profits and contacts Eric Prince has have made possible to buy.
People who might not have a vested interest in protecting Blackwater.
Write those reps, letters to the editors, etc.
If no one makes any noise, it will vanish beneath the waves; just like everything else.
