I'm sure the Iraqis just love this:
"Iraq contractors say they'll keep working without immunity" by Christian Berthelsen/Los Angeles Times December 9, 2007
BAGHDAD - In interviews with the Los Angeles Times, four guards and four executives from different companies in the secretive world of security contracting agreed to share their thoughts about the impending crackdown on the grounds that neither they nor their businesses' identities would be disclosed.
Another contractor, who works for a British company:
"From an individual point of view, I don't think there will be a great reaction, because a lot of operators live for the day or the week, and as long as the money's there, there will always be people willing to work in this environment. [Losing immunity] does make people think twice, but when you bear in mind the personal risk people take in working here, it's probably low down on their list of priorities."
Among some, there was also frustration with the high-profile American security companies, particularly Blackwater, whom they accuse of an overaggressive attitude that created more problems than necessary, and with Iraqis who continue to approach convoys rapidly and provoke guards to fire despite more than four years of warnings.
Yeah, it is the IRAQIS FAULT Blackwaters and such are blowing them away!!!!
Or is it?

Operation Northwoods

Just who are the "gunmen" in Iraq, anyway?
One contractor said the debate over security company conduct was a luxury afforded by the newfound stability in the country, and one that was not contemplated when hundreds of Iraqis died on a daily basis.
Yeah, Iraq is so much better now!
Tired of that old saw of a lie!
And WTF is with the hundreds dead a day?
My Zionist-controlled MSM never reported that!!
One executive, who works for an American business under contract to the US government, said the company would have to reexamine whether it would remain operating in Iraq if immunity for its guards is withdrawn:
"We have to seriously think about whether we could do business in Iraq under those conditions. I think under normal conditions, no company would have a problem with its employees being accountable to local law. But the reason we're in Iraq is because normal conditions don't exist."
Then GET OUT!!!!!
And why don't normal conditions now exist in Iraq?
Because of some asshole's invasion of the place?
One contractor said the United States might have to hire the private guards and make them government employees so they would continue to receive diplomatic immunity."
Sort of a "private, public partnership," huh?
To absolve AmeriKa's HIRED KILLERS of any more MURDERS!
I am APPALLED!!!!
