And he who controls the battlefield...controls history. War has changed. When the battlefield is under total control...War becomes routine.

Kojima knows what the deal is.

The world operates on favors and promises... Gotta protect "interest" and maintain the course of the NWO.


I seen the schedule for this war back in 04 the war on terror won't stop until a world order is implemented

You guys are trained to do that anyway.

actually troops are trained to hold fire until fired upon... I can't make this up.

Like what?? (serious question)

For one thing, they are not subject to the Geneva Convention, so the military has been known to use "private contractors" to "interrogate" AKA torture hostages.

I think so for the most part because the folks that were the cream of the crop in the military are usually recruited to private security firms right after being discharged.  Plus I am glad Blackwater has this reputation because fear is a great advantage in an urban war.  
I checked out their website under careers.  $510 a day for an explosive detection dog handler.  $510 x 30 days = 15,300 x 12 months = $183,600/year plus bonuses.  Not bad.

once you blow your leg off that $510 stops coming

anyways, do you just need deep pockets to hire these guys.  or do you have to be the government

because if you're some rich executive at a big company, can you just hire them to be your bodyguard
