It's all garbage posturing because they already screwed up the case.

Either government incompetence (your tax buck at work) -- or worse, and neither explanation is a good one.
"Ex-leaders of security firm could be charged; In ’08, arms found at Blackwater site" by Devlin Barrett and Mike Baker, Associated Press | March 24, 2010
WASHINGTON — Federal prosecutors are considering weapons charges against former executives at Blackwater Worldwide over allegations the private security company illegally stockpiled automatic rifles at its North Carolina headquarters.
Then they get out on the black market and are bought by the "terrorists," huh?
Good way to make some dough and keep the wars going forever, 'eh?
Senior Justice Department officials are reviewing a draft indictment against former president Gary Jackson, onetime Blackwater general counsel Andrew Howell, and a third man who used to work at the firm’s armory, people close to the case said. A decision is not expected until at least next month.
This isn't going forward.
Blackwater has repeatedly been under federal scrutiny — from the FBI to Congress to agencies that have hired the firm. Some of the company’s guards have faced charges for their actions overseas, but Blackwater’s executives have weathered a range of investigations. Any indictment would be unwelcome news at a business trying to rehabilitate its image since a 2007 shooting involving Blackwater guards in Baghdad left 17 people dead.
Who does a paid killer call to do that?
Under a new name, Xe, the company is trying to win Defense Department approval to train police in Afghanistan. The contract could be worth up to $1 billion but has drawn the ire of some in Congress.
Had enough of the fooley fraud from the newspaper and Justice?
The potential charges stem from a raid federal agents conducted in 2008 that seized 22 weapons, among them 17 AK-47s.
You know, the kind of weapon the "enemy" uses.
Multiple law enforcement officials familiar with the case said investigators are trying to determine whether Blackwater obtained the official letterhead of a local sheriff to create false justification for buying the guns. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation....
Sort of like a Blackwater false flag, huh?
