Cyprus-registered #Eitanium brings together some very interesting people. Erik Prince was added January 31, 2021
ERAN KARPEN, director
ERIC BANOUN, director
ERIK DEAN PRINCE, director
MAGOMED BILALOV, director
MICHAEL YUDELSON, director/secretary
Here is the old Carbyne Crew with Eric Banoun on Wayback. Banoun is famous as a broker in the spy com business. He has been mentioned in reports on hackcos like Circles, NSO, Verint, etc etc. Now he is in biz with Erik Prince. #WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong? vice.com/en/article/ep4…
FYI Erik Prince is still Waldo. He was last pinged just before IDEX. He missed an important meeting. Now money to "fix stuff" is falling from the skies. Some from brokeass banker who was about to be double tapped for an arms deal gone wrong. Some went to a kill team in Moz.
Mild correx. Prince was added to Eitanium on Nov 23, 2020. This was right after the week long secret Nov 14 - 21 meeting in Dallas to fund a variety of projects linked to Prince and the last minute Pentagon machinations. Burnham Global was created on Nov 18, the same day that
..Samarus was brought back from the dead. Movement at Maleth Air. All this after Tata promoted at Pentagon. Tata later ping ponged around African setting up deals in the last days of the Trump admin. Some projects continue, some are in jeopardy and some are being rooted out.

An optimistic concept that mercenary groups are subject to laws. An idea that has bled into politics. Unless laws are actually enforced, there are no laws. lawfareblog.com/what-laws-cons…
Like America's ultimate mercenary, enforcement of for profit groups might come down to "Hey....did you pay your taxes?" vanityfair.com/news/2021/03/d…
The last four years have seen bizarre and rogue mercenary operations conducted by players who keep assets off shore and use proxies to hide their financial involvement. theintercept.com/2020/04/13/eri…
The Rangers fought alongside indigenous troops and attacked the French in the colonial days. Ergo the crossed arrows of today's SF. But American's Rangers leave it to the Green Berets to do rangering. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogers%27…
Colonial, local or mercenary officers leading sepoys or local troops was not new but any book on Robert Roger's and his Rangers is worth a read. goodreads.com/book/show/6439…
Money quote: “There is so much irony here. Blackwater is owned by the Prince family, who is from Michigan. i wonder if the newcomers in this article realize that they are telling others how "our Wyoming" is. I had one invite me to leave if I didn't like it. He's been here a year.
Will there be a directors cut screening of “Heaven’s Gate”?
Peter Theil's Clearview is back in the news but this is worth rereading. Chuck C. Johnson doesn't get that many media mentions. huffpost.com/entry/clearvie…
It's clear from his latest lawsuit that the diverse thinking Johnson is not a racist, believes in the holocaust, dropped the "C", lived in Texas and has a non white child... well because his wife is Asian. jnswire.s3.amazonaws.com/jns-media/a2/6…
So the takeaway of this article is that if you you watch Heavens Gate on fast forward or in slo mo, the ponderous fictional plot might make sense but it's still a terrible movie made by a terrible person. So it's still a masterpiece because...Hollywood. film.avclub.com/one-of-hollywo…
I never figured out how Hollwyood made two Wyatt Earp movies at the same time. How much myth and mustache can America handle? ew.com/movies/2019/02…
The glorification of violence is a tone deaf Hollywood disease..and racism. D.W. Griffith made The Clansmen" aka "The Birth of a Nation" in 1915. The "film represents how racist a white American could be in 1915 without realizing he was racist at all." rogerebert.com/reviews/great-…
Fazil is a backwoods butcher who ran the Talib army up north. He murdered Hazara, burning some alive in their locked shops. I remember the feet still in the running shoes and the blackened bones sticking out. I would imagine there is still some bad blood. tolonews.com/afghanistan-17…
In 2001 under Fazil, Razak and other commanders, the talibs did three false surrenders including the famous Qali Jangi disaster. They have not been near Afghanistan since them. Its a mystery why they are negotiating on behalf of people they have never met. dangerousmagazine.com/2018/01/20/gen…
The Gitmo Gophers don't even live in Afghanistan: “I started Jihad (holy war) to remove foreign forces from my country and establish an Islamic government and Jihad will continue until we reach that goal through a political agreement,” abcnews.go.com/International/…
