Employees from the private security company Blackwater open fired in the streets in Iraq, twice in two days. One of the times, a Blackwater guard shot and killed an Iraqi driver Thursday near the interior ministry. Wednesday, a Blackwater protective convoy was ambushed in downtown Baghdad triggering a furious battle in which the security contractors, US and Iraqi troops and age 6-4 apache attach helicopters. Why do we have vigilantes working for the American government in Baghdad?
In addition, after the head of Sadr city insisted we leave Iraq, we bombed it. Bush is swaggering around acting victorious since he has gotten Congress to agree to no timetable over there. The New York Times is calling this a war without end.
