It is important to remember, a lot of these operators are working in Iraq right now because it's the only job they've ever known.

[/ QUOTE ]So do you think it's a healthy thing this, only knowing a job of killing and destroying?

And since the best qualification soldiers have is their ability to kill and destroy, having these guys constantly employed says what about the USA ?

Has ANY security contractor EVER been charged in The US Courts for a crime comitted as a contractor?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, but then, there has never been a need for one. Once the State investigation clears the agent, they are returned to work.

[/ QUOTE ] I take this as a No.

It really seems very obvious that the use of security contractors (cowboys of sort for those that like westerns; I do, specially "Brokenback Mountain") to the US government, is just a means for the government to by-pass its own regulations in foreign countries!
