When the CIA 2004th renewed plan for the liquidation or arrest terrorists, went to the security company with good connections, the time known as "Blekvoter" (current name, "Xe Services LLC has taken since its members were accused two years ago killed 17 Iraqi civilians in Baghdad and filed a false report that they shot in self-defense).

With "Blekvoterov" lucrative job security for government and scattered contacts in crisis areas around the world, officials of the company offered the services of foreigners, supposedly skilled in trace terrorists in regions where there is lawlessness and countries whose governments the CIA has not cooperated.

Planning Project CIA death squads began after 11 attacks September 2001. The Agency wanted to attack the terrorists closer look, which would be provided an alternative to air attacks and avoided accidental civilian casualties.

"Blekvoter" has long had a close and intertwined relationship with the CIA. Several prominent members of the CIA were given important positions in this company.

At a time when "Blekvoter" 2004. began to cooperate with the CIA, the Agency is in force any long-term policy that senior officials who leave the work bans in private companies during the year from leaving the CIA. This period of former CIA Director Michael Hayden extended the 2007th to 18 months for those who leave the Agency before his retirement.
