The Nation‘s Jeremy Scahill, author of Blackwater: The Rise of the
World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army, talks to Keith Olbermann
about the latest devastating news about Blackwater: its involvement
with the CIA’s
covert assassination program. Scahill details the revolving door
between Blackwater and the CIA and the intelligence services run by
the company that simultaneously works for the US and foreign
governments. He also points out that Blackwater served to prevent
executive branch accountability to the other two branches, saying
“It’s like Lord of the Christian
Supremacist Flies here.”
