Blackwater Hijacks Airplanes?


This story was on Think Progress late on Friday. I don't think it's gotten the attention it deserves. The witching hour is November 2. Oh Henry.

Blackwater confiscated Iraqi planes.

Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) has revealed that “Blackwater USA tried to take at least two Iraqi military aircraft out of Iraq two years ago and refused to give the planes back when Iraqi officials sought to reclaim them.” Waxman today wrote to Blackwater CEO Erik Prince and requested that he “provide all documents related to the attempted shipment and to explain where the aircraft are now.” October 19, 2007 6:11 pm
