The Heretik: MERCENARIES AND THE WAR OF WORDS

MERCENARIES AND THE WAR OF WORDS
Time Has Ticked to Twelve Noon for a Tale of Two Armies: a private army of mercenary soldiers and a mercenary media army. Commanding them both is the United States military. The dirty little secret of the war in Iraq is the presence of more than twenty thousand “contractors” who do high risk jobs for high end dollars. When they get injured, they get workman’s compensation and they get the death benefits you would get if you die on the job. You have seen pictures of these men with their black clothing and their dark glasses leading the luminaries of freedom on the march from one place to another. The average grunt has too.

Go read the Heretik.
