DESCRIPTION:Lecture and Book Signing: \nInitially released on March, 2007, a fully 
 revised and updated paperback \nedition of Blackwater featuring an exposé 
 on "Baghdad's Bloody \nSunday," a shooting spree carried out by Blackwater 
 in Baghdad's Nisour \nSquare on September 16, 2007 will be released June 1 
 and available for \npurchase at the book signing. \nBlackwater Worldwide is 
 the \nfastest-growing private army on \nthe planet, with forces capable of 
 \ncarrying out regime change \nthroughout the world. \nBlackwater protects 
 top US \nofficials in Iraq and yet we \nknow almost nothing about \nthe 
 firm's military operations \nin Iraq, Afghanistan and \ninside the US. 
 Founded by \nthe son of a wealthy \nconservative family known \nfor funding 
 far right-wing \ncauses -- megamillionaire \nand ex-Navy Seal Erik \nPrince 
 -- the company is \nintimately connected to the \nBush administration, and 
 as \na privatized army, \naccountable to no one.\n\nCitizens in Potrero and 
 San Diego \nwere successful in blocking Blackwater’s \nattempt to build a 
 training facility in Potrero! \nNow Blackwater wants to open an indoor 
 \ntraining and shooting facility on Otay Mesa!  \nLocated just 500 yards 
 from the international \nborder, this new facility would exacerbate the 
 \npotential for increased human and civil rights \nviolations to both 
 migrants and members of \nborder communities.   \nCome, listen and learn 
 about Blackwater and \nwhy this company, with its lack of transparency 
 \nand accountability, is bad for San Diego and \nwhy private companies like 
 Blackwater who \nprofit from war, suffering, insecurity and civil \nunrest 
 undermine our democratic values. \n\n
