Meet this honorable Seal many times while working for him as the Ops Chief for Al Hillah- Iraq / Regional Embassy Office...

Great guy and those that were convicted were sold out on the political level...

That ambush was experienced by my teams in Central South at least 6 separate times - the State Dept knew it - and cleared this PSD Team involved in 2007.

The whole case against them was Bulls**t!

Prince is a catholic Christian and true warrior for the Republic - and the lib's hate that!

A real can-do patriot entrepreneur!

His dad so amazed me I was astonished Eric could surpass him.

An inspirational man, truly in the mold of The Founders.

I even like his faults.

Obama and Holder satisfying ISIS/al Qaeda’s demands for force against Islam?

Yeah, they whole thing reeks of a political prosecution to appease the Iraqis. So remind me again what American laws these guys supposedly broke, and in what legal jurisdiction?

Also, if I was a security contractor, I would be damned if I ever accepted another dirty job from Uncle Sam after the way he treated the Blackwater guys.

most definitely...

The US Military had far worst shooting incidents - and yet nothing was said - they were paid off - and life went forward...

Those Shia Arabs called Iraqi...are now paying for it...I hope ISIS wipes them out...then turns on Persia (Iran) next!

I like Prince. That said, his body language changed drastically when Brian directly asked him if they were innocent.

I can you - personally - I was contacted back when this occurred to put my SME opinion forth during 2008. A few weeks later the whole dropped. So I was never called. His body language is one of disgust that these guys are being hung out to dry. Remember, Blackwater did security for both the State and another intel agency. One that Prince was working for - and one that burned him at a later point. He firmly understands being left out in the field. I too experienced that with another agency yrs before - it’s not a nice feeling and one that when it occurs - you never forget.

He’s a good guy - and those guys that responded to a terrorist ambush in Nisour Square - are good guys - I meet them - one was a former team member at my site — all were highly professional...
