Talk:Blackwater mercenaries

The original page appeared to have been cut and pasted from another source since outside formatting was still apparent. I attempted to edit in such a way as to save the content and lessen the possibility of copyright infringement. However, there may still be copyright issues. I added the New Orleans bit, it is original.

This page is redundant; see Blackwater USA. On that latter page, I have briefly described Blackwater's activities in the Hurricane Katrina relief efforts on the Gulf Coast, according to their own press release and Jeremy Scahill's news article. I have left out any mention of "shoot to kill" because I have found no sources to confirm that they have, in fact, been given such power. Though their employees have been "deputized", which I admit makes it very likely that they have been given such power, I am wary of inferring too much, especially given the polemic surrounding this company.
