US Recruiting Retired Pakistani Military Officers

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan—Despite denials by the US Embassy in Islamabad, this incident exposes the presence of American private security operations similar to Blackwater in Pakistan.  The embassy and US citizens working for either the US government or the US military are recruiting retired and well connected Pakistani military officers in order to build a network of informants and special operations agents inside Pakistan.  This is tantamount to creating a US military presence in Pakistani cities without sending the US army into Pakistan.  To camouflage this effort, US government media management teams are using the mainstream US media to churn out stories that seek to discredit these reports as ‘conspiracy theories’.
