Blackwater's Modern Crusade

• Published under: Vatican and Knights-of-Malta

Blackwater’s sucessfull history as a Mercenary Army is best outlined by Jeremy Scahill, author of the Book Blackwater.⁰

In April 2007 a Staff Committee on Oversight and Government Reform started the Hearings, that was chaired by Rep. Henry Waxman to investigate into the famous Mercenary Army that has strong ties into the Secret Cabal for World domination.
Direct connections to extremist christian right Wing Organizations, and Knights of Malta memberships are among the disturbing facts.

One of the most disturbing facts about the case is the $300 million State Department Contract, to protect diplomatic Staff in Iraq.
The contract was given after a no-bid deal to give protection to former Iraq Administrator Paul L. Bremer for $21 million, the famous man who completely dismantled the Public Sector in Iraq on all levels, which made him the Nr. 1 Target in the US-occupied region.

Blackwater, a Crudade of the Knights of Malta

Recent Hearings in Congress , which brought Blackwater into focus draws interesting parallels into the Knights long History, which dates back to the 12th century.

Blackwater had received contracts that amounted over 1 Billion $, according to Chairman of the Hearing committee Henry Waxman.

Waxman had stated in his opening speech at the Hearing, that half of the Contract Revenues had been acquired by Blackwater without any open competition. He also noted, that Blackwater, which acts as a privatized mercenary Army in Iraq on Behalf of Pentagon, has now such an influence, that it easily is able to recruit former US Military Personal.

Taxpayers pay approximately 6 to 10 times as much for privatized operations in comparison to formal military operations, according to statistic data, that Chairman Waxman holds.

Besides shooting and killing a security guard of the Iraqi Vice President, Blackwater has been accused also for bad conduct in it’s badly equipped military missions, that where supposed to be carried out in armored vehicles, according to contract documents.

Blackwater allegedly committed forgery as well, removing the word armored from contract documents, to boost profits.

In the Congress Hearing Rep. Kuccinich is asking tough questions:

Blackwater-contracted Snipers have been reported and filmed on various occasions to shoot down civilians either from Helicopter Roof-Drop-off missions or on vehicle transits throughout the streets.

The modern Knights, subordinate to the Vatican

This Order, which at various times in the progress of its history received the names of Knights Hospitalers, Knights of St. John of Jerusalem, Knights of Rhodes, and lastly, Knights of Malta, was one of the most important of the religious and military orders of knighthood which sprang into existence during the Crusades which were instituted for the recovery of the Holy Land. It owes its origin to the Hospitalers of Jerusalem, that wholly religious and charitable Order which was established at Jerusalem, in 1048, by pious merchants of Amalfi for the succor of poor and distressed Latin pilgrims.¹

Subcontracting above the Law

Eric Prince plays the accountability Ping-pong with Congresswomen Betty Mc Collum in the video below.

The Dick Cheny/Bush/Rumsfeld Agenda of outsourcing Military and other Governmental Services has resulted in more than 180 contracted Mercenary Armies. Blackwater, originally started as a Militarytraining Facility is just one of them.

Blackwarter holds a complex labyrinth of secretive subcontracts under which it operates in Iraq, a thorough investigation into the company reveals a frightening picture of a politically connected private army.

The modern Crusade. A Knights of Malta Operation

Eric Prince’s parents, Edgar Prince and his wife Elsa Prince Broekhuizen, through their foundation finance the Council for National Policy, an ultra-secret society which met in Salt Lake City on 28 September to hear Dick Cheney argue the case for an attack on Iran.

CNP, the same group which is also membered by Rev. Moon’s Unification Church Members has mainly be funded by Nelson Bunker Hunt , who was the second President of the secretive lobbying Group. CNP has historical ties to the racial eugenics Pioneer Fund through Jesse Helms and to the british Cliveden Set, which supported Hitler during World War II.

Prince Senior is one of the pillars of Christian Coalition of Gary Bauer and of the Family Research Council of James Dobson.

Eric Prince, through his own foundation, the Freiheit Foundation, finances Christendom College, the Institute for World Politics, Crisis Magazine and the Prison Fellowship of Chuck Colson. Prince also finances the Legionnaires du Christ and Christian Freedom International.

Key Figures, Connections and International Ties

J. Cofer Black, Vice Chairman of Blackwater, who is also a Knight of Malta, spent most of his 28-year CIA career running covert operations in the Directorate of Operations, where he worked with Rob Richer. At the time of the 9/11 attacks, he was director of the CIA’s Counter-terrorism Center. There he was former CIA Director George Tenet’s ace in the hole when it came to convincing Bush that the CIA should lead initial U.S. combat operations in Afghanistan after 9/11, where Blackwater would get contracted later on.

The real interesing key-figure though may be is not Prince, CEO of Blackwater, but Chief executive E. Schmitz, the son of former State Senator and U.S House Representative John G. Schmitz, who is a Knight of Malta and member of Opus Dei. As a Congressman from Orange County, California he was a notorious far-right figure, and the 1972 American Independent Party Presidential candidate and died in 2001. The senior Schmitz told a TV interviewer in 1982 that it might be time for a military coup in the United States, like Gen. Augusto Pinochet’s coup in Chile. His friend, columnist Joseph Sobran, quoted Representative Schmitz saying:

there is nothing wrong with the Jesuits that a good Inquisition wouldn’t cure.” He is an American Lawyer and former Inspector General of the Department of Defense.

The Schmitz Brothers have their footprints all over the Place.

John P. Schmitz is the man who recruited his “old friend” Friedrich Merz, a former deputy chairman of the Christian Democrats’ group in the German national parliament, into the international law firm Mayer, Brown, Rowe & Maw (which Schmitz works for). Merz, one of the most hard-line German neo-cons, made headlines in 2005, when he tried
(but failed, fortunately) to arrange the hostile takeover of the German stock exchange in Frankfurt/Main, by the British Hedge Funds fund TCI.

John P. Schmitz is a longtime leader and board member of the Aspen Institute Berlin, a center of anti-LaRouche intrigues in Germany. Schmitz’s colleague Jeffrey Gedmin, the director of Aspen Institute Berlin, is also head of the New Atlantic Initiative for Lynne Cheney’s American Enterprise Institute. Furthermore, the counsellor for the Federalist Society, T. Kenneth Crib, is president of William F. Buckley’s Intercollegiate Studies Institute and head of the Collegiate Network, which runs dozens of rightist newspapers on American college campuses in concert with Lynne Cheney and David Horowitz (EIR, Oct. 13, 2006).

As a matter of fact, the Society already has a footprint on the territory of Germany, through the German offices (Munich, Frankfurt, and Hamburg) of its main base in London, the law firm Latham & Watkins. On the American side of its operations, Latham & Watkins includes several prominent neo-cons, such as Michael Chertoff (A Zionist of Jewish descent, who’s last name incidentally translates to Of the Devil), Secretary of Homeland Defense; and Philip Perry, also in the Department of Homeland Defense and husband of Elizabeth Cheney, daughter of the U.S. Vice President. Elizabeth Cheney Perry is herself Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs.²

Blackwater chief Joseph Edward Schmitz, who is also a Knight of Malta is the son of the late John G. Schmitz, former California State Senator, Member of the U.S. House of Representatives, and U.S. Presidential candidate back in 1972. Columba Bush’s sister is married to John P. Schmitz, a beneficiary of the fellowship programs subsumed under the Carl Duisberg gesellschaft and the brother of Joseph Schmitz, currently the head of the Blackwater security outfit. John P. Schmitz has close links to the elder George HW Bush and the 9/11 Perpetrators

There is no doubt, that the before mentioned dubious company-cracker Law-firms are quite powerful and heavily involved in the Blackwater Scandal.

Blackwater at Homeland.

Besides deploying its own mercenaries, Blackwater also trains American law enforcement personnel at all government levels. The Blackwater gang is reaching for power in domestic law enforcement, and the privatized police functions would be amalgamated with anti-immigrant vigilante mobs.

EIR has established that the Greg Ahlemann incitement-candidacy is part of an international theocratic, fascist underground, connecting the Blackwater corporate leadership to armageddonist Protestant and Catholic operatives.³

Blackwater’s Agenda also includes to take over the US Border Patrol through Privatization, although this deal seems to have been gone to another contractor.

Will the Forced Laborcamps headed by FEMA Chief Operative Chertoff, that have already been constructed over the last decades , once inaugurated (Possible through a Bill signed by President G. Bush) also be manned by Blackwater Personnel ? That seems a really good question that many would have liked seen being asked in Congress.

The Blackwater Scandal draws some interesting parallels to the Pre-World War II Brownshirt Militia Period in Germany. Most likely, we will of course not learn much from History as usual.

The Outsourcing of Intelligence and Banana shaped unmanned Spy Crafts

Blackwater is taking on Intelligence as well, with Total Intelligence Solutions . With former CIA spooks and Cofer Black’s excellent Experience and connections in Counter Intelligence the company can now run interrogations and detention of suspects and try some waterboarding on them. Robert Richter, a former CIA Official is the Chief Executive according to the Washington Post.
It doesn’t take a lot of imagination, to conclude, what would happen in the near future, if the Blackwater Group of Companies would/could have access to National Security Infrastructural Resources as well.

In a major new outsourcing deal reported by only a few outlets, including the Army Times, Blackwater will divvy up a $15 billion pot of government gold, along with four huge defense contractors: Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, and Arinc.

Blackwater claims to be building remote-control spy airships. Purty darn good for an army based in a little North Carolina town — no, it’s Currituck, not Mayberry.

Arinc, a Maryland-based major supplier of airplane surveillance and passenger-counting equipment, is particularly stoked about the deal, which it announced on the sixth anniversary of 9/11.⁴
