Executive Outcomes

Executive Outcomes was very effective in proving governments with security using special forces. Bill Clinton shut them down and they were replaced with UN security forces which failed to provide any security. But EO was extremely effective at getting the job done. Where are these guys when you really need them?

I recall them being a South African company and they essentially won a couple of small wars for the side that hired them.

Believe me the company names change but these kinds of people are working more than they ever did before. The Russians have a huge bunch of eastern european types employed today.

A couple of interesting books on this subject....."Blackwater - Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army" and "Dirty Wars" by Jeremy Scahill.
