At the beginning of the Iraq occupation, the US government said that when the Iraqis wanted the Americans to leave, they would leave. Now the Iraqi government has rejected the licence of US security corporation Blackwater. Will the US government make good on its promise and pull Blackwater out of Iraq? |
More irony:
American Embassy officials have declined to give details of an investigation of the shooting on Sunday in Baghdad’s Nisour Square, but a preliminary report by Iraqi officials found that Blackwater guards had fired at Iraqis in their cars without provocation [italics added by SpinShield] Source: "Blackwater Resumes Guarding U.S. Envoys in Iraq" By ANDREW E. KRAMER - NY Times - September 22, 2007 The entire invasion/occupation occurred without provocation! So what's new??? |
