Blackwater
Book • 2007
In 'Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army', Jeremy Scahill explores the rise of Blackwater USA, a private military company that played a significant role in the Iraq War and the War on Terrorism.
The book delves into the company's involvement in controversial incidents, such as the Nisour Square shooting in Baghdad, and critiques the outsourcing of military functions to private entities.
Scahill argues that Blackwater's activities reflect broader issues in modern warfare and the privatization of military power.
