APARTHEID ENFORCERS GUARD IRAQ FOR THE U.S. Marc Perelman, Forward, 2/18/04
In its effort to relieve overstretched U.S. troops in Iraq, the Bush administration has hired a private security company staffed with former henchmen of South Africa's apartheid regime.
The reliance on apartheid enforcers was highlighted by an attack in Iraq last month that killed one South African security officer and wounded another who worked for the subsidiary of a firm called Erinys International. Both men once served in South African paramilitary units dedicated to the violent repression of apartheid opponents.
My delusional pro-war friends, this is not the way to impress us with regard to your compassionate war of liberation.
