In Iraq Blackwater operatives escorted convoys, provided security at numerous sites, interrogated prisoners and obtained intelligence, had documented pitched battles with insurgents. In short they did everything that would have to be done by American troops, took casualties and freed American troops for other duties. They also had their own armored vehicles and helicopters. Such is war everywhere.

How many of the Blackwater guys were convicted murderers bailed out of prison to fight in Iraq? One of the Wagner guys murdered his mother with a hammer. Lovely bunch I’m sure.

You are being ridiculous trying to compare a security company to an army that is leading the biggest war in Europe since WWII.

Evidently, you don’t know what the Wagner group is doing and what it is.
