Former Blackwater CEO says his mercenaries could have stopped ISIS if not for Obama

At the Maverick PACs annual conference Friday night, Blackwater founder and former CEO Erik Prince said it was a shame the (Obama) administration crushed my old business, which could have easily defeated the Islamic State, The Daily Beast reports.
Blackwater, Prince said, couldve solved the boots-on-the-ground issue. We could have had contracts from people that want to get there as contractors. You dont have the arguments of U.S. active duty going back in there.
His mercenaries could have gone in there and done it, and be done, and not have a long, protracted political mess that I predict will ensue.
Prince sold the company, which has since changed its name to Academi, after the incoming Obama administration severed the U.S. governments ties with it.
