50 jobs in Iraq...

no

Nahh I am too young to die.

no, too much change to get killed, its not worth it IMHO

High powered riffle is worthless at close range..... I would hope they gave him a compact weapon with high rate of fire with decent accuracy and stopping power as well as teflon, if not then he should look into spending some of his money on his own equipment.

Bomb RESISTANT no such thing as proof.

I would go if I was well trained for it. Right now no way.

Yes my bad, Bomb Resistant car. But yeah he also has hand guns as well as his big bad ass rifle.

I think in all he has 3 guns. Still, it would scare the shit outta me :(

Keep us updated. :thumbsup


Oh, and post some new pics of your girl :Graucho

No hes just saying that since there is millions upon millions of drivers across america, that more deaths occur from vehicle accidents, then in the war in iraq.

I'll keep you updated for sure!! As for the new pics of my girl.....Lets just say the latest ones we took aren't for public eyes :Graucho

ha, you wouldn't get me to play in THAT sandbox for any amount of money.

i would take that $800 a day and spend $500 of it on hireing 30 iraquians to follow around the guy all day and form a human shield around the guy 24-7

nope

:1orglaugh

I know Brazlian Jiu-Jitsu... tell him to stay home and for $10k/month I will stay in his place... so he can make $15k without working at all

right, I guess you've never dealt with these psychos, have you?

Who do I call.Tax free money hell ya!

First off, is the gov of UK paying to protect oil companies?

Secondly, SAS, wow, he must know some shit.

Thirdly, no I don't think I would.


Lastly, to all you idiots who want to, do you think you're qualified? :winkwink:

Very well put:glugglug

I would too ...

We must install democracy in that country.

It will be infectious to all of the regions around it.

There is no turning back - the voice of peace from the Iraqi population must be heard.

If i can get you hooked upwith that job will you go? I will cover airfare and all cost....

I would have when I was his age. Good luck to him.

1. No the big Oil Companies are paying these guys themselves to protect their Important staff.

2. Yep he has very specialist training, also paid for by the Oil Companies.

3. Me either.

Why in the world would I take a cut in pay to go to Iraq?

With disregard to the fact I'd say no anyhow...

My friend cuts a few oilfields for a small time oil company here. $6000 for 1 days work.

$6000 cutting grass 1 day vs $800 in Iraq, Haliburton are cheapasses!

Firstly it would take a hell of alot more money for any sane person to even think about.

Secondly the going rate is like 80k.

Thirdly heres the same scenario.

Would you play roulette at 1:25000 for any number on the board but if the ball lands on "00" you get your head chopped off.

Thats about the rough odds..

Yes ...

For $800 a day 7 days a week, I might just do it.

Could I telecommute?

I would not.
I understand his choice though. He has developed skills and actually with protection (him) danger will lower...

I find it amazing the world's toughest army is over there yet it seems that the general population would not do it.

That speaks to courage of the United States Army.

Big Time ...

Thank you on behalf of all Canadians.

Thank you for your courage.

i would rather stay at home selling porn

3 guns don't matter, your dead once you run out of ammo :BangBang:

Do you think that those poor beheaded people didn't have protection?
And they became headless anyway.


It is not worth it!
How about if there is no re-encarnation and this is the only life we get?

Sc*ew that!

Poor & Alive is better than Semi-Rich & Dead!

Its a little less than I'd take, the current starting pay for working in the relatively safe (until today's bombing) Green Zone for U.S. personnel is around $305K after all the bonuses have been figured out.

I know you many of you are thinking, I'll go to Iraq and kick some ass, the private security contractors are neutered with their ROE, they can only carry .308 or smaller. No .50 Browning machine guns, no LAW rifles, they look the other way for hand grenades, but you're not supposed to have them.

The British have a different way of protection details, they keep things very low key, their hard cars (armored) are usually Land Rovers and will beat them up by smacking them into other cars.

The Americans drive shiny new Suburbans or Land Cruisers, always clean, they stand out like sore thumbs, the contractors call them bullet magnets. The Americans point their guns at everything, the Brits try to blend in.

You all might enjoy this from a contractor in Iraq,

Info from Iraq - From Someone who is Doing the Run and Gun

Tell him to look around because he can get more money than that if he is skilled. I know a guy making 10G a week (ex-SEAL) there right now.

I would for 100k

And yeah, I'd be strapped at all times, and I wouldn't trust anybody, especially Iraqi's. I'm not getting into any cars even if an Iraqi police officer tells me too. If he insists, I'm shooting him and anybody around him. I'm not getting my head cut off.

nope...

I'm not from an english speaking country, typos are in every sentence, live with it :thumbsup

not till it snows there

It's all about economics. Even truck drivers and service employees are getting paid a massive WAR premium because of the security situation in Iraq.

In fact, this premium is so attractive that HUNDREDS of Filipinos routinely disobey the Philippine government's warning against working in Iraq. Many even PROTEST this ban.

It's all about economics.

never

Actually, there was only one party of all the others who were beheaded that had security guards, and they were Iraqi's

Having just Iraqi's guarding you is akin to letting the coyote guard the chicken coop.

No principal with a tier one, (Special Operations, Intelligence community, SWAT backround) protective detail has been kidnapped in Iraq.

The terrorists are going after the soft targets, only the really dumb fuckers that want to see Allah and get their 72 virgins would shoot it out with a detail like this...

amen

and yet you cannot spell :winkwink:

have you been watching FOX news??

HAHA!! i tend to see FOX news just for the fun of it....then i read the swedish papers aswell as some other american internet news sites and FOX is way off on the war

I'll stick with taking videos of hot chicks in their panties and selling them on the Internet. Safer and pays more.
