Police in the fractured Balkan state of Bosnia have launched what is being called the largest raid against followers of the radicial Wahhabi branch of Islam since the end of the country's 1992-1995 war. Some 600 police from Bosnia's Serb Republic and the Muslim-Croat federation took part in the Feb. 2 operation, codenamed "Light." Arrests were made and guns and explosives seized in the raid in Gornja Maoca, in the north. What are Islamic terrorists doing in Europe? You can thank Washington's and Brussel's Balkans policy for that.
Ever wonder where old soldiers go after they've peeled off their military stripes , barked their last order and fired their last bullet? Why to the ever expanding world of private 'security' with firms like Blackwater, (which is no longer Blackwater, but Xe, more on that later) and MPRI. We're not only talking about your grunt on the firing line. Top brass have put themselves at the service of the hired guns. John Craddock is about as high on the U.S. military ladder as you can reach and he is now the 'president' of MPRI.
