Since the first case was filed by Iraqi civilians against Prince and Blackwater over the killing of seventeen Iraqis at Baghdad’s Nisour Square on September 16, 2007, the company’s high-powered lawyers have fought feverishly to have that and four other cases dismissed. Now, facing a crucial August 28 hearing in federal court in Virginia, they are putting forward a new argument: instead of Prince and Blackwater standing trial, the US government should be the defendant.

I will never understand why some people spend all their time trying to discourage any hope of light and find such solace in darkness but then again I would never support the idea of killing for profit. Killing should be a personal matter. Anyone says any different has never killed and pisses in his pants at the thought of violence.
In other words there can be no defense of these clowns.
Not by gods or republicans.

“If Blackwater wants to be treated like a person, then its latest mutation, USTC, should be prosecuted, convicted and given the equivalent penalty of corporate capital punishment by revoking its charter and terminating its corporate operations.” RIGHT ON Nader!

I gotz no problem with killing for a living, hell bein a mercenary's my dream job! 6.5 humans is too much! But if they're going to kill someone, why don't they release them in Middle of Nowhere America "training operations" to kill off all these stubborn crazy idiotic rednecks! At least that way we could start with the humans on the bottom of the food chain.
