Men killed in Falllujah were US mercenaries

A week ago, alternet ran a story about one of the many mercenary outfits being hired by the Pentagon in Iraq, using US tax dollars. Now it turns out that the 4 Americans which the Pentagon tried so hard to deny a connection to, killed
in Fallujah today, were exactly this kind of mercenary, based in North Carolina. No medals, no military honor guard, no thank you letter from the President to their families. This is Rumsfeld’s vision of how to conduct a war.
