Well-Armed Fighters Left to Fend for Themselves as UAE Pulls Funds
by Jason Ditz
Last year it was revealed that Blackwater USA founder Erik Prince had been put in charge of building a mercenary army in northern Somalia, with funding from the United Arab Emirates and a goal of attacking the various pirate factions along the Somali coast.
It apparently seemed like a good idea at the time, but the United Arab Emirates has gotten sick of throwing money at the operation and pulled the plug. Now, the hundreds of mercenaries are sitting on a secret desert base with potentially millions of dollars in heavy weapons illegally smuggled into Somalia and nothing to do.
The UAE should redirect those forces to Syria w/ their heavy weapons and get gainfully employed.
They should redirect those weapons and forces to the Islamists who have oppressed the region. But then again the UAE and the current US administration would be far more likely to support the Islamic Fundamentalists!
Hope he gets his evil ass smoked!
what is 1 thing is true these people don’t do anything without pay, they’re totally pay for spray show as long as no money coming in they’re not killing anyone
