of the 100,000 or so Blackwater security guards in Iraq.
how many have been charged with any crimes towards Iraqis?
zero.
so theyre all either a bunch of angels or something stinks.
and I dont believe theyve never opened fire either..

in Najaf in 2004 when Bremer tried to crack down on Al Sadr and hugely miscalculated the response - you had a situation when a US marine was asking a Blackwater guy for permission to open fire on the crowd (which was granted)

they are certainly not being prosecuted either under Iraqi laws, or US martial law.
