    Better hope he isn't working for the insurgents either. Might make him a little biased, but since when did WaPo care about that?

    "dead and wounded people on the pavement." Yes, surprisingly, when you shoot at U.S. forces, you do seem to have an increased likelihood of ending up wounded. Or dead. But doesn't the article sound better when you word it like they were all orphans and school-crossing guards? Now if only he had worked in 'bloodcrazed mercenaries' as well, it might have sold even more copy.

    Funny I didn't see the words orphans or school-crossing guards in the article.

    Did see a lot of strawmen in your comment, though.

    Civilized nations don't need to resort to mercenary forces, so Iraq should have kicked the gung-hos out long ago.

    As for being trigger-happy, considering the US track record in Iraq, I'm completely content to believe that until evidence proves otherwise.

    The Iraqi Parliament finally stood up. Blackwater needs to go, but there is NO WAY that the US will allow them to be thrown out of the country.

    There is no way that they will let their Diplomats security forces be told to leave. Sucks but, true

    Blackwater has a at least 500 million in security contracts in Iraq. Dangerous bastards.

    Hell the Green Zone is Guarded by a company called Triple Canopy Inc.(Latin Americans)
