CBS Webite with Zinni Article has this.....which Creeped me out!
I was reading the Zinni article on the CBS Link and to the right of the article was an ad that says: "Business Iraq." I decided to click on the ad, because I was curious. What I saw creeped me out so bad, I thought I would post, because some here might find this interesting.

I don't know if this will come through with my "cut & paste" but will give the links. This company specializes in "covert operations" for the
Executive and high level Investors who do business in countries where there are high security risks. But, they are advertising on CBS Website? VERY STRANGE. Like Spy Stuff strange.

A team of specialists will be tailored to your specific requirements, with information disseminated on a strictly need to know basis to ensure operational security.

Unlike many larger companies, you will liaise directly with the representative who will be personally co-coordinating and engaging in activities on your behalf (unless this is deemed inappropriate due to the nature of the operation).

Our operatives have conducted successful investigations and operations across Western Europe, in Russia and the former Eastern Bloc, the Middle East and North Africa, the Far East, and the Americas.

1. And here's the link to "Business Iraq" from the CBS site:

1. Business Facilitation Services.

Our personnel in London and Baghdad will work closely together to ensure that companies seeking to operate in Iraq have full business support, assistance and guidance at a local level, in order that their operations run as effectively and successfully as possible. When this is combined with the high-level status and contacts of some of our key personnel, advisors and contacts, we intend to ensure that our clients obtain the maximum return on their commitment to the re-construction and stability of Iraq.

2. Representation.

From our headquarters in Baghdad, we will represent clients in negotiations as directed, and lobby on their behalf as appropriate. Some opportunities are only available to companies that can arrange for a representative to attend the appropriate offices before a certain date, in order to register interest and receive the necessary information and official forms. Conversely, our London based personnel can represent Iraqi companies in business negotiations and dealings with foreign companies.

3. Due Diligence.

As with all business worldwide, foreign companies seeking to undertake business dealings with those inside Iraq are advised to conduct due diligence enquiries in order to establish the commercial suitability and viability of proposed partners and projects. At Mercury Professional Services Ltd, our personnel are experienced in undertaking these types of enquiries on behalf of large corporations worldwide, including FTSE 100 and S&P 500 companies.

4. Business Research.

Whether targeted by sector, specific opportunity, or more general research of viable business ventures. Our personnel on the ground in Iraq, in conjunction with the experience of our UK based operation, will conduct accurate, comprehensive business research using a costed methodology agreed with the client.

5. Market Surveys.

As an adjunct to Business Research, clients may require market surveys in order to establish an accurate picture of the situation on the ground inside Iraq with regards to the products, services or opportunities of specific interest.

6. Executive and Corporate Security.

As a provider of security services worldwide, and in conjunction with partner companies, we are able to provide security solutions that will enable us to co-ordinate all our clients' activities in Iraq and ensure that any unforeseen circumstances are resolved as quickly as possible. The deteriorating situation in Iraq has resulted in security becoming the primary issue for any company or organisation seeking to deploy personnel there.

3. Is this a "Professional Mercenary Group out of UK?
Our Principal is a former Royal Marines Commando, close protection operative, and consultant with a leading UK corporate investigations company. He has undertaken assignments for VIP's, FTSE 100 and S&P 500 companies as well as small and medium sized businesses and private individuals.

Due to the nature of our operations, further details regarding our personnel and partners is not disclosed here.

However, our widespread network of personal and business contacts includes investigators, law enforcement officers, intelligence services personnel, bodyguards, personal fitness trainers, chauffeurs, translators, helicopter pilots, ex-Special Forces personnel and a host of individuals with specialist knowledge and skills.

We have worked closely with many of these contacts on varied tasks both in the UK and overseas and will utilise their skills as appropriate to achieve our clients' objectives.

5. This group is part of a Worldwide Mercenaries for Hire Group called
"RISKS INCORPORATED."

Seems it's an International CACCI/Blackwater type operation which hires ex-military all over the world to handle "undercover" business for Executives and Corporations.

I guess no one here is interested in this but these very strange groups are advertising on the CBS Website and this "Risks Incorporated" advertised on Yahoo and says that you can't copy any of their website for any purpose. It sounds like a major Spook organization which spies on citizens all over the world. Like a CIA for hire.

Who knows what they are involved with, now that we know that "Mercenaries" were interrogating "detainees" in Iraq.

Heres the link to this group the photos and links are worth a look.

6. It is creepy. And the fact that they are so blatantly mainstreaming the
IDEA of it is even more creepy.

8. Perfect for use in the US
the CIA is forbidden by law to be involved in any stateside activities. So * can just hire a few of these guys to do what ever he wants stateside.

Does Wellstone mean anything???

9. That was my first thought. Wellstone, the Microbiologists and all the
other odd deaths for decades. Notice how their site features planes and helicopters in every ad?

We don't even have to worry about our CIA and Britain's MI-5 anymore. Governments and Corporations can just hire these Mercenary Spooks and they don't get caught. Just like the Mercenaries in Iraq aren't under the Geneva Convention Rules or our control.

This is very scary stuff here. I had no idea..and don't think many others do either about how widespread these Hired Guns are.

Everything is suspect when this kind of group is prowling the World.

:-(
