Your journalistic “broad brush” shows a lack of research and knowledge on the subject. “tied to more population-alienating abuses”? While I grant you there are some who should have never been hired as security personnel – high speed / low drag / lower IQ; you throw them in with the thousands of other American contractors who are working every day with an Afghan counterpart to build their abilities and provide support. Then, to compare that group to the military / DoD personnel who never leave their secure compounds? Do some more reading… or better yet, come on over and get some actual facts for your work.

“buck-wild State Department security contractors in Iraq “
That about sums it up.
The closet cases that run WPPS sure like to surround themselves with a lot of wild and dangerous “Beefcake”. And the “Beefcake” gets a kick out of putting on a Rambo show to prove they deserve the big bucks as well as the limp wrist-ed diplomats “doe eyed” gratitude.
