Direct Action: Pentagon Contractor Softened Up San Francisco style
6/2/04: Today at 8 a.m., Direct Action to Stop the War held an emergency protest and street theatre at the San Francisco office of military and homeland security contractor CACI ("khaki"). Ostensibly an "information technology" firm, CACI has profitted from at least $45 million in contracts for "intelligence work" in Iraq, where, as the Bay Guardian reported last week, CACI employees have been implicated in the Abu Ghraib prison torture scandal. On 6/1, S&P changed its outlook on CACI's junk credit rating to negative, amid concern that five investigations into the company's work for the U.S. military in Iraq will find that its employees participated in abusing prisoners.
