Blackwater Protest Action Statement

As people of faith who wish to shed light and enkindle hope, we come today to the headquarters of Blackwater Worldwide in an act of nonviolent protest, appealing to Blackwater personnel to disassociate themselves from a corporation which:

• Operates in connivance with the U.S. Military to prosecute the illegal, unjust, aggressive war against Iraq in order to secure American imperial objectives in the Middle East;

• Reaps huge revenues amounting to billions of dollars, in effect robbing the American public of valuable resources needed for the basic necessities of life: food, shelter, health care, etc;

• Murders innocent Iraqi noncombatants, including children, women and the elderly;

• Performs these evil deeds without any accountability and operates with complete immunity;

• Works side by side and colludes with the world's number one terrorist, the United States Govenment.
