Do You Enjoy Being Shot At?
If you do, then International Executive Services, LLC, has the job opportunity of a lifetime!
You too can join other contracted employees in the Middle East fighting terrorists who plot against the United States! Dodge IEDs in the desert while making $134k - $200k per year with an 80 percent tax exemption! Do the job our military isn't getting paid nearly enough to do with equipment and weapons the 109th Congress wasn't ballsy enough to provide! The best part: Training only takes a grand total of eight weeks!
Sound like the job for you?
Not really.
The sad part is, it's all true. We have private contractors doing the military's job.
This International Executive Services LLC, website found at internationalexecutives.net, is now recruiting bodyguards to help be "part of the Security to help protect against anti terrorist that attempt to plot destruction against the United States." While they are clear to say that "[t]his site isn't a part of the U.S. Border Patrol or Homeland Security," this is clearly the job that these recruits are planning to do. It makes sense; we have corporations providing food to our troops, doing kitchen patrol, acting as mercenaries, torturing terror suspects, even taking over Walter Reed. Corporate armies are the next logical step, and it makes me sick.
They're advertising their jobs all across the country. I first learned about this on the Randi Rhodes Show on Air America, when a caller mentioned that this company was advertizing in the penny ads of a Brooklyn paper. I did a little digging (with some difficulty, because apparently International Executive Services is a business term and an unrelated non-profit organization in addition to this horrible company) and found that they also advertized for this position in Vegas (source), which means they could show up in Reno. On the company website detailing the position (source), the job requirements require the applicant to have 2 years experience in the military, 2 years experience as a police officer, or a 2-year degree in criminal justice. My guess is not too many applicants will have a degree.
By performing a WHOIS search of the domain (source), I found that the company that owns the domain name is TSV Group of White Plains, NY. According to their website (source), TSV Group is "a technology driven search and new media company that focuses on search marketing, local search and online comparison shopping," and apparently counter-terrorism contracts. They "[own] a network of local search and online shopping Web sites with millions of visitors each month, including more than 5,000 local-based Web properties." I checked their list of websites that they own, and International Executive Services is suspiciously absent from the list. Hmm...is it that they want to portray an image that doesn't involve crappy graphics of rotating handguns?
By the way, check out their photo gallery (source). Among pictures of these mercenaries in action include the stereotypical bald eagle superimposed on an American flag and a happy corporate woman on a laptop. That picture looks like it was stolen from a pay photo website...it even has a swirl watermark over it!
The point is: we don't need yet another contractor messing up a volatile Middle East situation. There's a reason why it takes a long time to train our soldiers. These mercenaries are luring our citizens into a dangerous situation where they are accountable to no-one and no government. We have enough to worry about from government mess-ups...we don't need World War III brought to you by TSV Group.

Before you go and talk shit about a company make sure your facts are straight. The International Executive Services LLC that offer the counter terrorism training is not the same as the non profit organization. The owner of the counter terrorism business says it recruits military personell to go to Iraq, but this company is a major scam artist. This owner Ricky Lee Coleman Jr has a criminal record for many things like weapons charges impersonating a police officer and credit card fraud. I have been witness to some of these events and guarantee that he is not legit. He has taken money away from thousands of American Veterans and has given them nothing but heart ache he has been known to drain the account of many of these dedicated american soldiers. They don't deserve to be treated like that. As for the other company, you have absolutely no right to accuse them of of being associated with Ricky Coleman. Just because they have the same name doesn't mean they are the same company. You could be sued for slander. I have been put in the same catagory as Ricky Coleman because of the business I am in. But unless you know what I actually do... no one has the right to put that negativity on my company. You should not be doing the same.. I believe you should publicly appologize for your mistake. Someone is paying for it right now.
I in no way meant to associate International Executive Services LLC with the non-profit organization of the same name. It was just poor wording on my part, which I will change to properly reflect in the post.
That being said, it appears as if we're on the same side of this debate. We agree that the company (not the non-profit) is a horrible institution. If you have any sources on your claims (which you should back up), please let me know.
Of course, it would be interesting to get sued for slander by a business term.
And I believe that the legal term you're looking for is libel, not slander.
