Whoawhoawhoa…

DynCorp has been hired to provide logistic support for the AU’s (and the UN’s?) peacekeeping mission in Somalia.  According to Forbes, it’s not clear whether or not there will be private American boots on the ground or if it will be limited to planning/supply, but either way: this seems dangerous to me.  We’re allowing a private corporation to the be the de facto political and military representative of the federal government in a war-torn region.  What happens when they kill the sacred cow?

((I know, I know, the sacred cow’s are in India.  The idea still applies))
