	Executive Outcomes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Executive Outcomes (EO) was a private military company, or mercenary company, founded by Eeben Barlow in 1989 and ceasing to exist in 1999.
		The line between Sandline, Executive Outcomes, and associated companies was sometimes blurred by a complex web of interoperation, ownership, multinational holdings, and what may be deliberate obfuscation.
		Executive Outcomes ceased trading on January 1, 1999, as South Africa passed an anti-mercenary law, though apparently its Pretoria, South Africa office remained open for some time.

	The Truth Seeker - Executive Outcomes ties lead to London and Bush
		Executive Outcomes is the mercenary arm of a vast network of British-South African corporations dealing in gold, diamonds, and oil, primarily, but not exclusively, in Africa, that come under the umbrella of Strategic Resources Corporation, headquartered in Pretoria, South Africa.
		Executive Outcomes was incorporated offshore, on the Isle of Man, in 1993, by Anthony Buckingham, a British businessman, and Simon Mann, a former British officer, the {Observer} reported, based on a leak to it from British intelligence.
		Executive Outcomes' presence in Uganda shows that it is key to the mercenary war waged by entities such as Barrick Gold and Anglo American Corp., to seize the mineral-laden eastern Zaire and the gold- and oil-rich south of Sudan.

	Sandline International - Links headings
		Executive Outcomes' operations in Angola were paid for by the client state and not by Ranger or Branch Energy.
		Executive Outcomes' services in Angola (and elsewhere) were remunerated in monetary form by their client governments and the suggestion that any commercial entity such as Branch Energy received mining concessions in payment is therefore entirely wrong.
		Teleservices of Angola is not a subsidiary of Executive Outcomes.

		Roosevelt signed the executive order primarily to ensure that there would be no strikes or demonstrations disrupting the manufacture of military supplies as the country prepared for war.

	Conflict, Inc.: Selling the Art of War - Howe Interview
		In Sierra Leone Executive Outcomes went in and forced a pretty bad rebel group to accommodate for a peace settlement, and very soon thereafter there were democratic elections and the new government came in.
		Executive Outcomes apparently was involved in some human rights abuses in Angola but did fairly well in Sierra Leone, and much better than Sierra Leone in military or the guerilla insurgency, called the RUF (R-U-F).
		Several months after Executive Outcomes left Sierra Leone there was a coup, and that country is probably in a worse position than it was during the war.

		The military and the use of military force are subject to strict executive control, flowing from the head of state to cabinet to the minister of defence to the chief of the armed forces.
		In short, Executive Outcomes' protestations of innocence and goodwill provide scant assurance because they cannot be scrutinised and checked by a proper authority.
		Executive Outcomes and others who favour the privatisation of security in Africa insist that mercenaries fill a critical need in countries whose governments or armed forces are unable to provide even the most basic security to citizens.

	Sandline International: Comment
		Fact: I cannot speak for ECOMOG but, as far as Executive Outcomes is concerned, the company was called in by the government under specific contractual terms to remove the threat posed by the RUF which, as has since been widely reported, it successfully accomplished.
		Fact: To lump Executive Outcomes in with the murderous thugs of the RUF is to present the company in an extremely disreputable light.
		Thirdly, Executive Outcomes' payments were being underpinned by the IMF who were shocked when informed that the government had terminated their contract even before the promised but eventually cancelled arrival of an international peace monitoring group.

		At the center of this amazing story is Barlow's highly successful private corporate army, Executive Outcomes (EO), which is on the verge of securing victory in the nation of Angola for the Marxist MPLA over the anti-Communist UNITA forces of Jonas Savimbi.
		Executive Outcomes provides a major connecting point in the strange relationship which has drawn together the Angolan Communist regime, leading corporate entities of the capitalist world, the Communist-dominated South African government, and former anti-Communist members of the SADF who now hire out as mercenaries to their former MPLA enemies.
		Following that equation, regardless of the outcome, the victorious new regime would be compliant with the desires of its internationalist masters.

		In a recent interview, Van den Bergh, spokesman for EO, poured out derision for the United States, lying that it was the U.S. who had replaced one dictator for another in Zaire, a blatant falsehood which covers for Britain's central role in the Great Lakes genocide.
		Executive Outcomes' famous contracts in Angola and Sierre Leone were coordinated by SAS veteran Tony Buckingham with EO's Eeben Barlow.
