Quotes: “Nation States No Longer Have A Monopoly On Military Force….”

    This article just rehashes everything that I have posted previously about the Saracen International contract in Somalia.  What is quote worthy though is this gem below. The last sentence really cracked me up.

     Pass this one around folks, and I put this up on the Facebook Page for FJ as well. Hell, I would even say that this is the quote of the year. lol –Matt

     “Nation states no longer have a monopoly on military force, intelligence, diplomacy or anything else,” Mr. Clarridge said. “What’s going on in Somalia, where you have skilled contractors training a counter-piracy force, is an example of where the future of the military is going. No government or group of governments can get their act together to do it, but someone has to do it, and they are doing it.”- Duane Clarridge, From The Article “Private Firm Trains Somalis To Scuttle Pirates“, December 28, 2010
