by the threats that we have, it's crazy plantation, let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, a very critical time. time to sit down and talk having alternate realities to experience or even live it and like say role or does my idea, you know, especially during and damage where you can go anywhere in the game world, go everywhere, you know, choose the game that you want. any open rural game to that, and you are now on a vacation in a place where you're like flying helicopters or you're, you're on beaches, you're, you're in a city drive, you know, what are the car you want? you know, you name it these. these are getaways ah

i b, b, c was us less iraq. america continues to maintain ohio in the country with us to see in the world situation. and again, this is into the crucial thing. international troops under control over to the afghan forces. the security situation remains critical in the country. we are now supply my stuff and you have your manage. i do so yeah, like how about if i just keep on? if i already move our friends most of these again, some of them, they have ordered a left the day enough. i found right now,

making my way my missions didn't was on your new stuff like my power. so how, how many of the person that you're sending out have used to be a child? so just in the when i got there and i can't, i can't tell about how many do you think i can't. i can't, i've gone to have been dealing with him at people and we're doing this and is, is this the method in effecting dismounted by the office as a quote the ah,

the low enough to hear you know, a full you learn how to tradition. if you don't know, so with this, think from the spirit with arrows less than the tradition. so if you are trying to think about this from the disorient them staple and so on, for the not the case may be critical of people who used to be fighting when they were very young, that they now go to war. you think that's a problem? that's not a problem about another problem because yes about steps. young people take, it's not from us, but just their prescription. and even if they have started when they were told or they're not 13, that's not a problem. not a problem. is that the job that the card? yeah. his sorry. yeah. yeah. the,

the me the guy who walked with the room, they were peaceful fiscal freight in south america and resorted to use the gun. and because of this being that people will come here. yes. and what's your tammy? this is what they do on the on english the down to shoot the gun. well, the cut it the companies risk on common contract that we

are dealing with for some time. i i i the private military industry is a part of how the country is if i tours today, um, ah, the us government doesn't track and number of contractors it uses in places iraq,

dana, stan, we know it's a log. we don't really know exactly how many i spent several years working within the industry. i have a military background and one of the differences between being a soldier i found and being a private military contractors that when we work for the us military or any military, you take a sacred oath that you're going to serve and fight for your country. as necessary, die to protect a way of life. one that you believe and i am an american soldier. i'm a warrior and a member of the day. i will never accept. i will never quit. i will never leave a fallen comrade. it's the complete opposite in the private military world. you look at the budget 1st, the loyalty of these companies and these businessmen trains depending on market

forces. we operate in the world, challenging, complex, emerging market. the middle east is absolutely the core for our business today. we care the empower we perform. we do the right thing on this industry is not just what you see is what you get when you see a company, you don't know exactly who's working for them. they hire and they sometimes create what we call subs sub contractors. ah oh in ah oh, there's been commanders and staff who is simply said,

we don't know who the subs of the subs the subs are. so you have all the layers of a contract ah ah, the level quality control starts to fade quickly, the deeper you go from the top to the bottom. ah, the united states army and the military in general. so reliance on the private sector. i would call the dependency, but we don't know who's the on the ground presence of these companies overseas. we just don't know me o. ready me

the time i drive to, to this training can come together with it to 2 white men from the security company . oh, we're driving out and just a small track and what's to was to come through this far as the landscape, not so far away from from the airport. when we enter the camps and get out of the car. the 1st thing to see is that you can, the instructor was in charge of the training of the making the recruits line up in order to receive these guys from the past. you cared to company. the lock in for, for iraq not hear from you. like you said,

i need to know if i was supposed to what are you not one of those who read for me. he's only 2 food at the top right. if i to the, to the, from a chair and the iraq equipment was considered a quite good deal in the sense that they could actually take local trouble. make us something in a way to rec, for a couple of years. and then turning them after 2 years with money from the overseas deployment. this could serve to stabilize security. in the beginning of the training course, the one real weapon presence. so that using these wooden sticks,

i was referred to a couple of days and for the training that the weapons arrived. and they were being lined up at these wooden tables within in the middle of the big camp. the tension and excitement also attention mainly because now it's actually getting into something very well for many of the crews and the 1st time holding a weapon. since anything of the civil law the

menu were starting to to shake and some were starting to cry when the, when the took up the weapons not being able to to have the lack of compliance bagging for example. i don't know what is coming from the bus i weeping open. no, and i've seen this when i'm thinking i lost are now when i was supposed to move on again. i should use you know my, my, the issue was funny. i saw my last where on

the young, on the war husband, both mainly by young conventions alone. you're looking for young men to perform military jobs. the chances are quite good that they have also been child soldiers. the right job got me. me

need to fit in sure you have the money to shoot up fishing if not every day. remember my father, you my word. i would never give me. oh, when i was young. i don't have things that i do see and if you're good for you, monday, wednesdays, because job have your command on when you go the horizon before you have to do it by then you don't do dutch, you to have the to the war on drugs noted as a way to come back, a great problem. what's the one?

it's part of the attitude of the nation, not just of north dakota. it's got to be something that you could get elected. this time, the fight against drugs took a tragic, told us that andrew was competing insurance form. this is way too dangerous for him to be doing. clearly they put him in harm's way. a rural college student does interest get shot in the head and found in a river like that. something else to be happening when we think of war and the warrior who fights it, we have this image and our mind man in uniform. um and uniform means they're fighting as part of the military service nation, the cause that they fight for their force political patriotism. and yet when you

look at the wars of the 21st century, they don't match those assumptions anymore. now we have out source to lot of our warfare to private military companies in the background of this changing nature of war and who fights it. that dates back to the very start of the private military industry itself. until the early ninety's, the security industry is a dock murky industry. i outright less means to bring you down governments for the cash mm outcomes to 1st proper private military company. it was exactly that. it was

a private company that could field a full army if they had, they had incredibly highly trained and had moved into private depression and we pulled the videos literally saying is your executive outcomes? is a legend in this business. they formed in south africa as apartheid ended . they had a background in some of the special police forces during apartheid. elite units had dest squads, some of the most controversial units in terms of the human rights records. no one down to go. they worked for oil companies, they work for i can gola and certainly own and this became

a controversial andy international committee stepped in and said you can't hire executive outcomes. so another company called van line international out of london . so ended up taking on some of those contracts. fedloan is a company that provides military consultancy services for governments or large corporation or. ready at some time, the idea was to get very posh english officers on top of these private military companies. and tim spicer was an officer in the military. british military got out and was asked to come help with a company called san line law executive outcomes row going to be unless we think they're extremely good, extremely professional in a very good track record. there are no. ready skeletons in the cover as

well. i mean, we think we're doing a human rights record and we would use the hires the same people to south africa, but now they're legitimate because they're working under a contract in spice's arrival. gave an almost instant handles of respectability towards previously be unless than this world and i didn't personally have any difficulty with the lead most you know the thing like the image that it comes up in most people's mind. if i tell him it tims by 1000 communion, for newspaper dashing and charming, public school educated god. and that really wasn't matching the feature ministry before then. it changed the agenda, the global agenda. and what problem that company was i spicer was considered a respectable of a mercenary organization,

but at 1st there's been business affairs and didn't go too well. it was dogged by failure me. for example, you get a phone call from a fellow indian with a type passport who was under house arrest for financial scandal. and he contacted tim spicer and wanted him to restore the president of cheryl. was the president cheryl in was back in power. this guy would then get his contracts for diamonds and be able to make money. but it didn't work out that way. the company line run by tim spice of a full balmy candle, requested by customs and excise, and he's accused of smuggling weapons illegally. when a private firm gets involved in foreign politics for the benefit of a criminal,

you have to stop and ask, okay, this really happened or is this the fictitious james bond time started when it was a true story. these things tended to happen to the times that he, what he somehow managed to get boys would either respond to in talking to guinea satellite or arrested at the airport. spicer is facing firearms charges linked to his speed to provide south african trade reef to put down the local result. they were thrown out of the country, but it was hit by some ways. understood. the media is a risk, but can be turned. he had to deal with the bad publicity from this oppression which previously would have been completely undercover. but i suppose spices either genius or stupidity was to make it public and say, officially, no, this was a contract. this is the contract i signed the recently retired british canada,

who's that a band of messengers, he's safely back in this country. so has this put him off his new career as a hide guns? i am going to continue with this new new business. if it was found line international . well, i think we've got a number of lessons to learn from this particular episode. i think that we will continue to try and develop our business as long as we can do it in a central way, me line eventually to land under the weight. and that was that in the short term, you can say that was not successful company in terms of delivering an enormous amount of money to his shareholders. traversing it launched him spice on a career where he was able to find what would then become one of the most significant problem that company in the world.

when 11 occurred, everything changed the contractor content and the armed forces went up astronomically, at this hour. american and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm iraq, ideologically, republicans, my party wanted every single public function to be scrutinized, analyzed, evaluated, and if possible, privatized general stuckey,

the head of the u. s. army at the time, testified the congress and said, if we're going to do a rock, it's going to take several 100000 us troops. and very quickly the rest of the bush administration reacting negatively. and he's absurd, that's crazy. it's not going to require those amount of troops, and they actually essentially drummed him out of the military. it turned out he was right. we did deploy several 100000 forces. it was just through private military. ah, so in the early days of iraq, it was a gold rush. you had companies coming out of nowhere, including black water, was really like a cowboy was law, was when nobody at any control. anybody doing anything with fire arms in this country could say they're a private company,

was an a t m company. well, the basic idea of a contractor versus recruiting training and supporting military events is that there was hiring a process to getting married. so instead of a soldier who has an ex cost of a, you're now paying a contract or being a times $10.00 of what has happened is that america has basically married a prostitute and has been active, taking them for a very long period of time off yesterday for example, if you invade a country, there's going to get a feel i've known a few, no rush to run this. now we will get wrong or a very the ship from using private

military contractors for understandable tasks to using private military contractors . wholesale in my view took place without much debate and all everybody loves me. contractors offer some gray area benefits to politicians. everybody's concern, like do we have a 1000 boots the grant? nobody ever asks how many contractors there? there's don't really care boots on the ground, which the us military wanted to play 1000 and the ground and there's 4000 contractors. it's a way of, you know, having for some 5000 bite without politically risk. the

well, they're shooting at you you. yeah. yeah, yeah, but you said it did. it didn't shoot part of it a shot and ricocheted his car, but the private security company had the sensitivity of the letter for civilians would often if not always get caught in the crossfire. i

always done because they would do 2 things at once. you fight and you win hawks in mind. when she comes to the grand opening fight, they were very, very noticeable. they would play rock music that you know, this was not, there was no subtlety. this is not a, even the military were more discreet than the pub security company. and so what it was, they were very, very public slapped in the face for the average iraqi on a daily basis. this is a real problem for the military. so we fill the contractor presence in iraq in particular. but afghan stand to was becoming contrary to what the mission was for the armed forces. therefore their presence was more dangerous than it was held. aah!

to the in, in 2001 day that reshape to the modern world. i remember watching the world trade center burn on a tv at the cia. and i was standing there like this just looking at it. and a colleague of mine was standing next to me and he said, my god, did they have any idea what they've done? we're going to kill everybody now. everybody, the, the live tv images promote the us into declaring its war on terror. began to bomb afghan villages and holmes and get people hurt and, and killed the main goal of destroying terrorism and then was it achieved?

yes. and no. ok to essentially no longer exists good for us. but there are certainly other terrorist groups that are worse than on the present by didn't get the host the reception from the american public. i mean and get over his handling of the gun it's done. pull out the 20th anniversary of $911.00 approaches. he explored the legacy of america, one tara, in a series of special reports. we hear from families, the school was killed in a recent us, trans tries and cobbled. i'm the head of the family that has lost 10 of its members . this is not a mistake.
