SaysWho? Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/military/officials-worry-trump-may-back-erik-prince-plan-privatize-war-n901401 Quote In an interview with NBC News, Prince said he believes Trump advisers who oppose his plan are painting "as rosy a picture as they can" of the situation on the ground, including that "peace is around the corner" with recent U.S. efforts for peace talks with the Taliban. He said he believes Trump's advisers "over-emphasize the fluff and flare of these so-called peace talks." Prince, a staunch Trump supporter whose sister is Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, argues that after 17 years of war in Afghanistan, it's time for the U.S. to try something new. "I know he's frustrated," Prince said of the president. "He gave the Pentagon what they wanted. ...And they haven't delivered." Prince said he hasn't spoken directly to Trump about the plan, but told NBC News he plans to launch an aggressive media "air campaign" in coming days to try to get the president to embrace it.

They are a company that changes their name every time they do something stupid. I think they are currently Academi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afghanistan is the new Germany for overseas troops, but without the hookers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
