John, interestingly, I tried to make the same link at the same website. I keep getting a "not found" message. Wonder why?

OT: Given that many of the people mentioned by name in the article had been connected to Executive Outcomes, and given that EO's past experince "protecting mines" throughout Africa, this is not an implausable story.

The plane's operator ... said the seized aircraft ... had been flying security men from South Africa to guard mines in Democratic Republic of Congo.

It does point out a bit of a problem, since these South African companies were supposed to have been shut down in 1999.
