The Vatican has created an anti-terrorist unit in order to guard the Holy See and the pope from a possible attack.
Vatican security forces now include an anti-bomb squad and a rapid response team, according to Domenico Giani, the head of the Holy See’s 130-man gendarmerie.

The Vatican will also work more closely with Interpol to gather information on any threats, he said.

hey deltaboy, good to hear from you. is not blackwater?...

In October 2007, Blackwater USA rebranded themselves as Blackwater Worldwide. Blackwater is based in the U.S. state of North Carolina, where it operates a tactical training facility that it claims is the world's largest. The company trains more than 40,000 people a year, from U.S. or foreign military and police services, as well as other U.S. government agencies. The training consists of military offensive and defensive operations, as well as smaller scale personnel security. Technologies used and techniques trained are not limited by U.S. domestic law, although it is unclear what legal status Blackwater operates under in the U.S. and other countries, or what protection the U.S. extends to Blackwater operations globally

The Vatican will also work more closely with Interpol to gather information on any threats, he said.

The deal with Interpol, the pan-European police agency, will give the Vatican access to a large data bank of suspects and information on the latest anti-terrorism techniques.

“The teams report directly to the head of the Gendarmerie,” said Mr Giani in an interview with L’Osservatore Romano, the official Vatican newspaper.

Your article mentions this. Nothing about Blackwater or Bush. So I ask again. What does this have to do with Blackwater and Bush.

shoot me deltaboy.......................you are not going to get it out of me! ha! ha! ha! \

blackwater fights terriorist for us in iraq and on us soil. sounds like they would protect our pres since all our 500,000 troops are in various countries and we have no protection on us soil who do you think is going to protect the pres - the national guard? the citizens of the us or is it deltaboy?

so, the pope has his group.

Blackwater is currently the largest of the U.S. State Department's three private security contractors, providing a total of 987 contractors. Of the 987 provided, 744 are U.S. citizens.[9][10] At least 90 percent of its revenue comes from government contracts, two-thirds of which are no-bid contracts.[11] Blackwater Worldwide is currently contracted by the United States government to provide security services in the Iraq War.[1]

Blackwater or someone else...that's not really the point. Here comes dominionism.

Do you think Blair is after the presidency of the European Union? Wonder if he submitted his resume? The members of the European Union are located within the old Holy Roman Empire.
