Glad to see it. Blackwater saved my bacon more than once in Iraq

Makes perfect sense. Blackwater (now Xe) fulfills missions the diplomatic security service is neither manned nor equipped for. If it blows up in their (fedgov) faces, let’s hope the guys are safe, but the splash hits the hildabeast.

ruefully

The decision keeps Blackwater - since renamed Xe -

In true Monty Python fashion these warrior have become known as (ready?) .... (wait for it) ....

The Knights who say XE!

But, do they still seek .... a SHRUBBERY?

And do they hath still .... THE HOLY HAND GRENADE?

I was so disgusted by the last 24, where the Blackwater clone murdered a US senator and is plotting to kill Americans to bring about their goals, that I’m almost going to not watch the rest.
