I mean what the fucking fuck. Here’s a new scandal I didn’t even know about and good God how many more of these are we gonna find already?!

Crooks and Liars » Iraq Embassy Oversight Hearing: I believe these men were kidnapped by First Kuwaiti to work at the US Embassy…

I’m watching the vid, so if you don’t want to, here’s the guy’s story: he was contracted by First Kuwait as a medical tech and told to go to Baghdad. A manager asked him to escort 51 Philipino nationals, make sure they got on the same plane…but when he got to the airport he noticed that their tickets said they were going to Dubai. He asks a manager why this is, and he’s told 1) their passports don’t allow them to go to Iraq, so they have to say that, and 2) he shouldn’t tell them they’re going to Baghdad. He learned later that they were expecting to go to work at Dubai hotels.

Rory Mayberry: “Mr. Chairman, when the airplane took off and the captain announced that we were heading to Baghdad, all you-know-what broke out on the airplane. The men started shouting, it wasn’t until the security guy working for First Kuwaiti waved an MP5 in the air that the men settled down. They realized that they had no other choice but to go to Baghdad. Let me spell it out clearly: I believe these men were kidnapped by First Kuwaiti to work at the US Embassy… I’ve read the State Department Inspector General’s report on the construction of the embassy. Mr. Chairman, it’s not worth the paper it’s printed on. This is a cover-up and I’m glad that I’ve had the opportunity to set the record straight.”
