Based on alleged sworn declarations by 2 Blackwater (XE)employees in federal court, the firm used child prostitutes at its compound in Baghdad's fortified Green Zone. The same folks who fought the Anti-Rape Amendment. Will congress stop their funding?

If this happened on a post, especialy the green zone! It would have been discovered and handled and the pepole who did it would be in body bags.

proof beyond two ex employees who are squirming to get a deal. plus you have to take the press with a big grain of salt!

+6 Seeya. I guess it's remotely conceivable that something like this happened.
.
But I've never seen sworn testimony relating to something like this that wasn't offered as part of a plea bargain on something.
.
Now, granted, I guess it's possible that these folks are whistleblowers. But, more often than not, witnesses like this fall into the category of unindicted co-conspirators of some sort.
.
It's impossible to get an idea of what this testimony means without knowing the context in which it was offered, so your skepticism is well-placed.

Congress will try, but there are still Republicans and very conservative Democrats who will attempt to spin it as the fault of "the liberal media" as opposed to the fault of those doing it.

i just saw that david vitter has already introduced legislation that pays halliburton $50 million in exchange for releasing marketing techniques that it used in its ploy.
.
in an apparently unrelated event, 250 republican senators and congressmen are taking a junket to iraq where they are going to personally interview these teens and pre-pubescent children.
