DESCRIPTION:
Blackwater Book Tour Coming to California, as Blackwater Comes Under Fire in the State

As local residents and their Congressman move to block Blackwater's expansion plans, Jeremy Scahill author of NY Times Bestseller Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army launches State-wide book tour of California April 26th – May 6th.

The San Diego Union Tribune reported the proposal by Blackwater USA to "build a training center on a 800-acre former chicken and cattle ranch in the rural-town of Potrero in San Diego County has torn apart the tiny community and brought protests by those opposed to the company's government contracts in Iraq."

San Diego County's "Rep. Bob Filner says he is exploring legislation that would block a controversial proposal for a major defense contractor's training camp in the backcountry community of Potrero."
