Quote:
With each move, and each headline, Blackwater intensifies the debate about the role of private soldiers in today's world:
Is it truly cheaper to farm out so much of the war? Is it right to give civilian soldiers a license to use armed force? Who do they answer to if they fall short, or go too far? Is there a risk of private armies turning rogue?
Just 10 years ago, those questions didn't exist.
Neither did Blackwater.

I liked the article.
The author of the article finished with those questions. I bet the author failed to consider that anyone (in America) can effect, hire, employ, use, initiate, or respond with armed force at any time without the proverbial license.
