Though he sold the company in 2010, Prince has made a fortune from wars – from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Iraq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Iraq</span></a> to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Afghanistan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Afghanistan</span></a>. He has also attracted bad press: In September 2007, Blackwater employees escorting a convoy killed 17 Iraqis. They claimed it was an ambush, but Iraq claimed the killings were unprovoked. The Iraqi government refused to renew Blackwater’s license in 2009.</p><p>"Five years ago, well before anybody predicted Trump’s election, Prince visited Israel and was hosted by Harow.
