"Cerberus Capital, one of Wall Street’s most notoriously ruthless leveraged-buyout firms (or “private equity firms” in PC-speak), recently made a $1.8 billion killing on its human plasma investment, a company called Talecris."

"Former health minister criticises government's 'mind-boggling' decision to sell Plasma Resources UK to US private equity firm Bain Capital" Guardian, 2013 theguardian.com/business/2013/…

"Once you sell on to a company that could easily sell on to another company, where is the security of the supply? I don't see how [the Department of Health] can guarantee supply in the future.

"It is mind-boggling that they thought it is appropriate to sell to a private equity..

company that will presumably sell on at some stage if they can. . The distance between the #NHS and its requirements for these blood products and the company becomes ever distant. Ownership is confused and there are no guarantees for the future. It just seems too risky."

"Bain has paid £90m upfront for an 80% stake in PRUK, with a promise of a payment "expected to be worth £110m" in five years' time. ..
The department declined a freedom of information request from the Guardian .."

"The Haemophilia Society, which does not oppose the sale in principle, asked the Department of Health for guarantees that PRUK would continue to make a rare blood-clotting concentrate to treat people with a deficiency of factor XI in their blood.."

"The department referred them to Bain, a response that Bernard Manson, the chair of the society, described as unacceptable. "

"Among Cerberus’ holdings is the military contractor DynCorp International, which receives the vast majority of its $3 billion in annual revenues from the federal government." Bloomberg, 2018

DYNCORP

Among the issues discussed was what diplomats delicately called the "Kunduz DynCorp Problem." Kunduz is a northern province of Afghanistan"

""Dancing boys!" Just how concerned/disturbed should you be about this? As it turns out, very: these "dancing boys" are part of a very sick tradition called "Bacha Bazi." Isenberg links to an excellent "Frontline" documentary abt the practice in his post"

Bacha boys are 8 to 15-years-old. ..

After the show is over, their services are auctioned off to the highest bidder.. And by services, we mean..

The State Department has called bacha bazi a "widespread, culturally accepted form of male rape."

Watch how Rumsfeld lied."

It's an important video.. some excerpts from McKinney's remarks@

"Dyncorp was exposed in the selling of young women and children. While all of this was going on, Dyncorp kept the Pentagon contract to administer the small pox and anthrax vaccines and is now working on a plague..

vaccine through the Joint Vaccine Acquisition Program. Mr. Secretary, is it policy of the US government to reward companies that traffick in women and little girls?"
