Wasn't too interested in this story but the killing of the former New Zealand special ops guy & this statement has me wondering...

It seems like M23 fighters are nolonger taking Western mercenaries as prisoners in Eastern DRC conflict. The DRC hired mercenaries known as Blackwater headed by American former US Nevy SEAL, Erik Prince are right now dying like insects. https://t.co/zmuMvqzHbn

What does this guy know that we don't? He's giving the impression that the former New Zealand Special Ops guy was captured and then killed by the rebels. If that's true then its a whole new story. Another thing that has me spinning is that an undercover full effort is happening in Africa right now. Don't believe that all we have operating there is Erik Prince's boys. SOCOM is running ops all over the continent. France is going whole hog there too. Not sure but the Danes also have interests there and might be running ops. The Middle East is the attention grabber but things are brewing on the African continent.
