That. Is incorrect. Blackwater's main purpose is to guard high level targets because we don't trust the Army to do so. That's a criticism of the Army. But the charge that Blackwater's forces make up for lack of soldiers is just not true.
This is all concluded based on my review of media sources, so its probably got some flwed info in it, I'd say about the same percentage as your response to it will.
