Is anyone surprised?

It's Iran/Contra all over again. We've got attacks against civilians to stir up dissent. We've got weapons moving in via the US (or at least its corporate subsidiaries). I'm sure it's only a matter of time before we find out that the drugs are moving in to the US (they certainly are from Afghanistan).

These are old US tactics, we've just gone and privatized them now. That works better anyway. Now the US government can claim legal ignorance, Blackwater will be protected (even more fully than a US citizen since as entities, corporations have more rights anyway).

Is this country hopeless?

I'm starting to think so.

Its okay though, they're brown and very far away.

That just makes me sick. Those people didn't deserve to die.

more people need to know about what their tax dollars are going towards. of course the corporate media doesn't spend much time on reporting this. they spend all their time on OJ and how ahmadinejad is bringing words of mass destruction to our universities.

Let's hope those responsible are brought to justice if they are guilty. I'm not making up my mind on this one until an investigation is complete though, and I encourage others to do the same.

No problemo.. just give them a presidential pardon.

Life is good.

Is there a way we can locate members of this phantom 27% that still blindly support this administration and beat the ever-loving ***** out of them?

Seriously, Im tired of being reasonable.

That is just sickening, those shooters should be here in court immediately on trial for their very lives with life imprisonment and death penalty being the only options available.

gee imagine how much worse things would be if they weren't there protected the public from the savage insurgents.

"The car with the dead couple continued to move, with its doors open and the bodies inside -- like a phantom vehicle"

*Shudder* Like the Ghost Car in GTA:SA? Spooky.

Signed, the youth of America, only able to connect with war on the level of video games.

I'm afraid when the current administration (directly or indirectly) causes atrocities like that it will infuriate those people and they don't forget. Years later they'll come back at us with something big and guess who will be protected...the administration. Guess will be be dying:....us. It ***** sickens me how this administration doesn't seem to show any remorse towards even it's own people or care that it's actions can hurt it's own people.

How can you do these things like in the above article and not expect as Ron Paul said, "Blowback"!!!

Where are these videos that the article speaks of?
I'm sure YouTube wouldn't host something like this... but it would be good to see what actually happened.

This is not the people's war and it's well beyond out of hand.

What a fine mess this administration has got us into, all for the sake of prolonging the inevitable crawl towards recession and fleecing our money reserves.

Obama seems poised to win (despite the rally for Ron Paul) and he will be faced with the impossible and blamed for it's failure.

What a sad state our country is in....

This is a message to Iraqis:

You have our support to engage all Blackwater mercenries wherever you find them in Iraq. We do not support these people they are not legitimate coalition soldiers, they are not our friends, they are taking our taxes and using them to recklessly kill innocent people in your country. They are the equivilent to your sectarian militias, please go ahead and protect your country from them, arm yourselfs and stand up for yourselves against Blackwater. Americans have the right to bear arms and protect themselves from foriegn attack, so do you, shoot to kill.

Ghost ride the whip?

Blackwater & Aegis ... inhuman, war-profiteering *****-piles ... burn in hell.

I bet this is nothing new for iraqis, I mean, a security company that is protected from iraqui and US law has no incentive to respect basic human rights. It is absolutley sick and disgusting to let this company run outside the law

blackwater in Spanish literally means ***** water, I don't think they ever thought of coming to latin america, thank god.

let's just hope the same thing doesn't happen to the people behind this senseless shootings.

Go Blackwater!

I hope those Blackwater thugs are hung by their entrails and dragged through the streets

Whilst these basically evil scum from Blackwater deserved to be executed by firing squad now this instant, the sad reality in life is , they have already been given the get out of jail free card , at every level by the US Military Command in Iraq and by Foggy Bottom as well !
There will be no justice for those they deliberately murdered in cold blood that fateful day !

"As they often do, guards from the US firm -- the largest private security operators in Iraq -- hurled water bottles at cars to stop traffic as they drove through."

This is the undercurrent of contempt, for the people they're supposed to be protecting, that leads to "accidents" like this.

Watch Blackwater drive around Iraq shooting at unarmed civilians with machine guns for sport, causing death & destruction to unarmed Iraqi civilians. This is your tax dollars at work.

This is even more proof that we (the US) has no business being in Iraq in the first place. Hired mercenaries is what they are by definition (Blackwater). And if the troops can't supply their own security then we two choices: either reinstate the draft or get the ***** out. And for the ***** that base our country's foreign policies on Pottery Barn's policies, go read some books & grow a brain. Lastly, who wants to spend a further trillion dollars of your hard earned tax money to stay in Iraq for however many years? This war is nothing like what we were told in advance in any respect. If the Dems only have one way to stop the war, which is to defund it, then that's what has to be done. Support the troops, by bringing them home now.
