In 2010 testimony before the congressionally chartered Commission on Wartime Contracting, she noted that "contractors are a necessary reality of the United States missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, and perhaps similar, future missions." Aegis, she said, was a "threat driven and intelligence led" company with "seasoned professionals" and "exceptional performance." She added that the firm "regularly meets with Members of Congress, their staff and other key decision makers." Link Yes, nightly in fact. In 2007, Aegis won Pentagon renewal of a contract to run security services for reconstruction projects in Iraq, a deal "worth up to $475 million over two years," the Washington Post reported.

Theories linking Aegis to the failed Blue Mountain Group guarding the State Department's Benghazi mission have circulated on the Internet. Aegis issued a statement denying it.

#1  Aspen Healthcare, please meet CHAI. I must assume you've not previously been introduced. Would someone PLEASE investigate that noise? It could be a telephone! Oh, it's Doctor Shakeel Afridi, says it's urgent? Sorry, we're no longer taking calls from Doctor Afridi. |
