Sons of Zayid: with an army of mercenaries

"The Colombians had entered the United Arab Emirates posing as construction workers. In fact, they were soldiers for a secret American-led mercenary army being built by Erik Prince, the billionaire founder of Blackwater Worldwide, with $529 million from the oil-soaked sheikdom.  Mr. Prince, who resettled here last year after his security business faced mounting legal problems in the United States, was hired by the crown prince of Abu Dhabi to put together an 800-member battalion of foreign troops for the U.A.E., according to former employees on the project, American officials and corporate documents obtained by The New York Times."  I have one thing to say to sons of Zayid: if the massive Egyptian army could not protect Mubarak from the wrath of his people, you think an 800-member gang can protect you?   (thanks Ahmet)
