In defending Erik Prince's upcoming appearance at Beloit College, collinsar@beloit.edu. has his facts terribly wrong. Prince should be encouraged to speak to anyone but his statements and his opinion open to respectful and well informed debate. Read on. beloitcollegeroundtable.com/category/opini…
Prince works directly for the Communist Chinese in support of their OBOR scheme to directly compete with America across Asia and Africa. Directly in opposition to @realDonaldTrump and our nation's aggressive plan to push back against Chinese domination. reuters.com/article/us-chi…
"the U.S. owes its very existence to private military contractors." is fictional but an old saw Prince trots out. Untrained militias and support of the French and other factors led to victory. Lafayette was not a mercenary, he initially was 19 year old volunteer with no command.
"Private Military Contractor" was created by Executive Outcome's accountanct Michael Grunberg after they sought to monetize the idea of SADF military vets prosecuting wars in Africa for money. Prince is a groupie of these grizzled South Africans and screwed them over in Somalia.
"Contractors made up over fifty percent of DoD personnel in Iraq and Afghanistan" No Andrews, contract personnel are 3:1, higher in some classified areas and foreign security contractors are banned in Afghanistan. GIYF. acq.osd.mil/log/PS/CENTCOM…
"The events there have been spun in the media and the blogosphere to suggest that Blackwater guards fired on innocent Iraqi civilians." HFS. Andrew you need to read the names, ages and backgrounds of the Iraqis murdered at that traffic stop. Shame on you. nytimes.com/2007/11/14/wor…
"without contractors, you might be drafted to make up for the shortage." Shortage of what Andrew? The men and women who work as contractors are overwhelming military and intel veterans. How exactly do you draft a 50 year old Green Beret with bad knees to do targeting in Syria?
"Blackwater conducted thousands of missions in Iraq and Afghanistan and guards only discharged their weapons in approximately one percent of those." How much time did you spend with BW Andrew? Discharges were supposed to be recorded They weren't. reuters.com/article/us-ira…
"the Obama administration greatly expanded Blackwater’s brief " Sorry Andrew, Obama and Clinton burned Prince to the ground resulting in almost $50M in fines, a deferred prosecution agreement and Prince agreeing to get out of the contracting business. gibsondunn.com/wp-content/upl…
I could go on but I am bored googling. So please don't bullshit your yourself and classmates under the guise of "freedom". Defend American values and champion truth. By the way I only have a high school diploma, I couldn't afford to go to college so I learn my facts the hard way. 
FYI:Here is a direct link to Andrew Collin's deeply flawed defense of Erik Prince and fictional reinvention of Blackwater As chairman of the Beloit College Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) he should be put to task for naivetee, toadyism and bad googling. beloitcollegeroundtable.com/2019/03/05/bel…
