Without wars they don't make a profit, i.e., Halliburton, Blackwater,
Lockheed Martin, etc. They have fed on the blood of Iraqis and will be a
source of warmongering until they are curtailed. A hard and dangerous
reality-- they are a threat to mankind's survival.

Military contractors such as Halliburton and Blackwater are the brainchild
of Vice President ***** Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.
A major goal of Cheney when he was secretary of defense in the first Bush
administration was to privatize as much military work as possible,
ostensibly to make it more efficient. He commissioned a study by
Halliburton, which predictably liked the idea and wound up as America's
largest military contractor. Cheney was hired as Halliburton's chief
officer, awaiting the return of a Republican administration.

The sanity of (Adolf) Eichman is disturbing. We equate sanity with a sense
of justice, with humaneness, with prudence, with the capicity to love and
understand other people. We rely on the sane people of the world to preserve
it from barbarism, madness, destruction. And now it begins to dawn on us
that it is precisely the *sane* ones who are the most dangerous.
Raids on the Unspeakable
Thomas Merton
He was found guilty on all counts, sentenced to death and hanged at Ramleh
Prison, May 31, 1962.
A fellow Nazi reported Eichmann once said "he would leap laughing into the
grave because the feeling that he had five million people on his conscience
would be for him a source of extraordinary satisfaction."
