Manpower. So how many of the person that youre sending out have used to be a child . So just in the when i got there and I Cant, I Cant tell about how many do you think I Cant, I Cant I cant have been dealing with many people were doing this and they found this the acting, surmounted by the office as the quotes. The news well enough to hear in your fall you learn how to tradition, if you dont know for it with a stick from the spirit with arrows lessen the tradition. So if you are trying to think about this, me disorient them stapling. So that is not the case, may be critical of people who used to be fighting when they were very young, that they now go to war. Think thats a problem. Not thats not a problem. But another problem. Yep. Ill show you partake. Its not much of their prescription even if they had started when they were healthy as old not 13. Thats not a problem. Not a problem. Is that the job that the car to his car . Yeah. Yeah. The me when the fan got to what was the room, they were peaceful. Hes got physical friday in january and resorted to use the guidelines because of their discipline that people can use. And what you tell me, this is what they do on the some english the down to sure. Thats why theyve got the credit. The companies recon comment on track that we sometime im in oregon, im dealing with what time ah ah ah, the private Military Industry is a part of how the country is in my tours today. Um, ah, us government doesnt track the number of contractors it uses in Places Iraq or afghanistan. We know its a log. We dont 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 youre 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. Im a warrior and a member of a T I. I will never accept. I will never quit. I will never leave a fallen comrade. Its the complete opposite in a private military world. You look at the budget 1st, the loyalty of these companies and these businessmen change depending on market forces. We operate in the worlds challenging complex emerging market. The middle east is absolutely the core for our business. Today. We care and power we perform. We do the right thing. This industry is not just what you see is what you get when you see a company, you dont know exactly whos working for them. They hire and they sometimes create what we call Subs Sub contractors. Me o me ah ah, theres been commanders and staff who just simply said, we dont know with a subs of the subs. The subs are. So you have all these layers of contract. Ah ah, Level Body Control starts to fade quickly. The deeper you go from the top to the bottom, ah, united States Army and the military in general is so reliance on the private sector. I would call the dependency. But we dont know whos the on the Ground Presence of these companies overseas. We just dont know me o. Ready me the time i to, to this training can come together with it to 2 white men from from the Security Company. Oh. Were driving out in this small truck and what was to camp through the forest, the landscape, not so far away from, from the airport. When the ends of the camp and get up out of the car, the 1st thing to see is this, that you can, an instructor was in charge of the training of the making the recruits lined up in order to receive these guys from the pads you cared to company the lock in for from iraq with not hear from you like you said that he need to fight us. What are, what are you . Sure. Not for those who basic i will report this is all if with at the top right. If i to the from a genuine texas, the iraqi group was considered quite a good deal in the sense that they could actually take local trouble. Make us something the 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 on me in the beginning of the training course, the one the real weapons presence. So theyre using these wooden sticks the 1st couple of days into the training that the weapons arrived and they were being lined up as these wooden tables within, in the middle of the big camp. Tension and excitement also attention mainly because now its actually getting into something very real for many of the crews and the 1st time holding a weapon. Since anything of the civil law the doctor many were starting to to shake and some were starting to cry when the, when the took up the weapons and not being able to to have the end of the compliance to batting revamp. I dont know what is coming from the bus. I thought we picked up, you know, what im saying when im thinking now that when i was supposed to live, when again, i should not my my the show up. I was following. I saw my last web on the the the phil young on the husband, forth mainly by young conventions alone looking for young men to perform military jobs. The chances are quite good that they have also been soldiers. The job got me to the old didnt show you that you have to shoot up fishing if not every day. Remember my father. You know, i dont give me. Oh, when i was young. That a lot of things that i do see in this letter to her good for you Monday Days because ive been shop. Have you come on when this is going on . Her as us before we have to do it by danny. Dont do dutch, you know, to have the the, the way the u. S. Government funded is through the issue of Treasury Bond and they pay the interest on those bonds by collecting taxes. Who owns most of those bonds. Virtually all those bonds, the top 110th the one percent. So the government simply becomes a Pastor Mechanism for people to pay money from their pockets through Something Called Taxes that are just a vaguely that hides the Transmission Mechanism of your money through the government into those who own these bond. September the 11th 2001 day that reshape to the modern world. I remember watching the World Trade Center burn on a T V 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 theyve done . Were going to kill everybody now. Everybody, the, the live tv image is provoked the us into declaring its war on terror. Theyve begun to bomb up can villages and holmes and get, or 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 when we think of war and the warrior who fights it. We have this image and our mind of a man in uniform. Um and uniform means theyre 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 dont match those sanctions anymore. Now we have out sourced a lot of our warfare to private military companies in the background of this changing nature of war and who fights that dates back to the very start of the private Military Industry itself. Until the early ninetys, the for the Future Industry is adult murky industry. Ah. All right, let me just to bring down governments for the cash. Mm. Comes with the 1st proper, private military company. It was exactly that. It was a private company that could field a full army the time they had soldiers, incredibly highly trained and had moved into private property with functions with corporate videos. Literally saying in your Executive Outcomes is a legend. In this business, they formed in South Africa as apartheid. And in they had a background in some of the special police forces during apartheid elite units. Ive had death squads, some of the most controversial units in terms of the human Rights Records. No one down they worked for oil companies, they work for governments, i can gola and certainly own and this became controversial and the international committee stepped in and said you cant hire Executive Outcomes. So another company called Van Line international out of london. So ended up taking on some of those contracts. Federline is a company that provides military consultancy services for government or large corporation. Ready 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. Were going to be unless we think theyre extremely good, extremely professional in a very good track record. There are no. Ready skeletons in the cupboard as well. I mean we think that will bring a team Rights Record and we would use. Ready the hires the same people to South Africa but now theyre legitimate because theyre working under a contract. Ready in spices arrival, gave an almost instant of respectability to what had previously been a muslim world. And i didnt personally have any difficulty with the word must be added to the image that it comes up in most peoples mind. If i tell him it comes by 1000 communion, for a newspaper dashing and charming, public School Educated Guards officer. And that really wasnt matching the Feature Ministry before then. It changed the agenda, the global agenda. And what problem that company was i, Tim Spicer, was considered a respectable hand of a mercenary organization. But 1st, as business affairs didnt go too well. It was dog to my 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 to be able to make money, but it didnt work out that way. The Company Line run by Tim Spicer for my mommy carnell, 150 gigs by customs and excise. And hes acute 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 fictitious . James bond type story, but it was a true story. These things tended to happen often times that he always somehow managed to get boys with the other was going on in talking to Guinea Satellite or arrested at the airport. Kind of spicer is facing firearms charges linked to his speed, to provide South African trade mercenaries to put down a local result they were thrown out of the country, but it was by some ways understood. The media is a risk, but to be turned, he had to deal with the bad publicity from this operation 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 bruce can do that. A band of messengers, hes safely back in this country. So has this put him off his new career as a hive guns . I am going to continue with this new new business. If it was found line international, i think weve 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 those in a central way, me stand line eventually collapsed under the weight and that was not a failure. In the short term, you can say that was successful company in terms of delivering an enormous amount of money to his shareholders. Conversely, it launched him spice on a career where he was able to find what will then become what more significant problem if the company in the world me when i 11 occurred, everything change 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 shinseki, the head of the u. S. Army at the time, testified to congress and said, if were going to do a rock, its going to take several 100000 us troops. And very quickly, the rest of the Bush Administration react negatively. And hes absurd, thats crazy. Its 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 last when be at any control. Anybody doing anything with firearms in this country could say there are private military company was an atm this company well, the basic idea of a Contractor Versus Recruiting training and supporting military events is that there was a Hiring Process to getting married. So instead of a soldier who has an Ex Cost of a, youre not being a contractor being a times 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, you can see theres going to be the fuel ive known a few roughly around this time we will get a raw 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 contractors offer some gray area benefits to politicians. Everybodys concern, like do we have a 1000 boots the grant . Nobody ever asks how many contractors there . Theres dont really care boots on the ground, which the us military wanted to put 1000 in the ground and theres 4000 contractors. Its a way of, you know, having a course of 5000, but without politically risk. The one theyre shooting at you makes you. Yeah. Yeah. But you said it did. You did a score to shoot part of it. I shot in front of him. Ricocheted his car. Exactly right. The private Security Company had the sensitivity of them from political civilians would often if not always get caught in the crossfire. Ah, what governments have always done because they will do 2 things at once. You fight and you will hop from mind private. When she comes to the ground opening fire, they were very, very noticeable. They would play rock music, but you know, this was not, there was no subtlety. This is not a, even the military were more discrete than the prob, Security Company. And so they were very, very public slack in the face for the average iraqi on a daily basis. The 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 press, which was more dangerous than it was hell, ah, ah, the civic land around the World Expedition by 1000 ocean miles round the clock of cobb. Miss wilson in every country close by like the crew cabins for Food And Water and to show them the most bloom little thing is got everybody locked down or almost no food and no water that only somebody either stuck up in the cove.
