WAAAA HHHOOOOOOOOOOO Blackwater is dead!

This is truly hilarious. Xe. Zee. Ooooooo. Super secret. I sure hope they didn't pay good money to get this "rebranding." There ain't enough lipstick in the world to make the stench of Blackwater smell any different.

XE.com is already taken. It's also the symbol for Xenon, an odorless gas. In it's gaseous state, Blackwater is certainly not odorless.

sign Z papers or else!

Blackwater will continue guarding U.S. officials in Iraq — under a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars — but its future will be focused on training, aviation and logistics, the company said.

"Security was not part of the master plan, ever," company president Gary Jackson said.

Yeah, ... sure.

Friends, Allies and Supporters,

While mercenary, violence for profit corporation Blackwater has changed its name to some allegedly cool, two-character element from the periodic table (Xe), their mission and worldview remains the same. Their contract with the State Department is good until May 2009, they're still positioned on our Mexican, US land and oceanic borders in hopes of gaining that sole source border militarization contract I'm sure they're lobbying for (go Womble Carlyle!), and they're training both miltary and civilian personnel on how to ignore rules of engagement and take full advantage of excessive deadly force (see Blackwater Worldwide testing combat shotgun AA-12 for the U.S. Armed Forces). And don't forget Blackwater is in Afghanistan and likely in Pakistan as well.

Despite owning and operating their own intelligence company, there was sheer stupidity on their part when they failed to do their homework to find out that they'll likely be sued for trademark infringment (see Defensive Domain Registrations: Blackwater vs. XE.com). Would you hire these guys to do your corprate inteligence and spying? Prospective customers beware!

Wherever Blackwater goes, we will follow. In that spirit we have re-branded ourselves Xe Watch. We will let the world know that Xe IS Blackwater, and that the ONLY change is their name. Otherwise its business as usual for the Prince empire.

FYI, rhere will be a Stop Blackwater Conference Apr 24, 2009 through Apr 27, 2009 in Stockton Illinois.

Peace,

Thank you for your tireless devotion to keeping the spotlight firmly planted on this malignancy in our midst.

While I haven't read every article from Blackwater Watch emails, I do save them for reference. North Carolina has a special responsibility to pay attention since we sponsor them in a way.
