In 2008, two Blackwater employees were indicted for murder after a

facing several new civil lawsuits, including one put forth by the

The danger in this is we may be setting up the US Army for the same
type of thing. There is plenty of evidence that our military has shot
innocent people too.
We can't even start to address the number of innocents who get killed
in aerial attacks, going back almost 20 years in these ill thought out
mid east adventures.
That is the nature of a war where virtually all of the combatants are
out of uniform, fighting from the cover of civilian neighborhoods.


Might as well go all the way back to WW I. Lots of innocents killed with
artillery then. During WW II , there were lots more killed with bombs.
And of
course, there was Korea and Vietnam and probably Panama and a few
others. Many
like to think only the Bush regime was responsible for killing
civilians. Little
bit of bull**** there.


The difference is, you imbecile, that WW1/2 were not wars of choice;
whereas, Iraq was.


US could have stayed out of WW II. But the writting was on the wall
that if they didn't Britain, Italy and all the "old" countries would not
be there any more. Europe would be renamed the Natzi United Europe.
Would have had the a-bomb and jet fighters to go with them before the US
did.
