Blackwater License Being Pulled in Iraq - New York Times: "The Iraqi government said Monday that it was revoking the license of an American security firm accused of involvement in the deaths of eight civilians in a firefight that followed a car bomb explosion near a State Department motorcade. The Interior Ministry said it would prosecute any foreign contractors found to have used excessive force in the Sunday shooting. It was latest accusation against the U.S.-contracted firms that operate with little or no supervision and are widely disliked by Iraqis who resent their speeding motorcades and forceful behavior."
The government's secret, unaccountable army strikes again. They are nearly immune from their mistakes, as far as the US Government is concerned, but at least the Iraqi's can do something, small as it is.
