From 2017: Revealed: #Blackwater Founder #ErikPrince's Business Ties With #Netanyahu’s Disgraced Chief of Staff

U.S. businessman at center of storm over allegedly setting up back-channel between #Trump and #Putin has ties to #AriHarow and an Israeli financier

by Hagai Amit, Dec 6, 2017

"His involvement in foreign policy raises eyebrows because of his involvement in Blackwater (now known as #Academi), the multinational security firm that operates around the world. Though he sold the company in 2010, Prince has made a fortune from wars – from #Iraq to #Afghanistan. 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.

"Five years ago, well before anybody predicted Trump’s election, Prince visited Israel and was hosted by Harow. At the time, Harow was a businessman with a private investment fund as well as being chief of Netanyahu’s bureau. Harow tried to interest Prince in investing in Indigo Strategic Capital, a venture capital fund that Harow was co-managing with Dorian Barak.

"How much Prince invested in Indigo remains unknown, but it is known that through Indigo he invested in the Israeli companies #NowForce (security) and #AgentVi (real-time video analytics)."
