We knew Erik Prince was a bad dude, but this is off the hook!

Blackwater, now known as Xe Services LLC is the paramilitary outfit contracted by the Bush administration to massacre Muslims secure Iraq after the glorious well planned invasion that resulted in the end of Saddam Hussein’s regime.

Now, sworn statements filed in Federal Court in Virginia y ex employees, and reported on by The Nation (maybe I should renew for another year) indicate that company President Erik Prince may be responsible for the murder of individuals who were coopoerating with Federal investigators.  In other words, this has nothing to do with the countless Iraqis who were undoubtedly killed by Blackwater, this is Prince killing people to save his himself from prosecution.

There’s also a lot of other classy stuff in the statements, like the following:

The former employee also alleges that Prince “views himself as a Christian crusader tasked with eliminating Muslims and the Islamic faith from the globe,” and that Prince’s companies “encouraged and rewarded the destruction of Iraqi life.”

Nice.
