But I honestly don't care what happens to Blackwater because nobody told those mercenary dogs to open fire. | |

How do any of us really know what went down that day, what these guys saw, heard, sensed, etc. that made them react the way they did? They are employed to guard American diplomats in a WAR ZONE where no one is really sure who's side who is on. Everyone here in the States is just eating up whatever the liberal media tells them, and from what I've seen that is "Blackwater is a gang of bloodthirsty trigger-happy mercenaries" - Do you honestly believe these guys are over there running around looking to get into firefights? I seriously doubt it. These guys are trying to make a living with the skills they have, just like any of us. Quote:

Blackwater was hired by the US government to do the jobs that the military cannot do for fear of backlash...freakin' media is everywhere now. The Rule of Engagement for Blackwater was "If something looks suspect, ventilate it." Blackwater employees are Pros at what they do, I wouldn't be so quick to judge them. The problem is that the enemy isn't in a uniform, they're dressed like everyone else in the area. I didn't see a Saudi law firm sue the families of those that flew planes into the World Trade Center buildings on behalf of the thousands that died in the attack. I know guys that have done time in a Federal prison after being hung out to dry by the same government that hired them. One of'm was left for dead twice. This recent Blackwater BS is the same basic thing happening all over again. These guys are doing the job they were hired to do, then, when something hits the news, the Gov't "was unaware", "had no involvement", etc...and the guys from Blackwater will be the ones to pay the consequences instead of making the Gov't look bad. | |

All I can say is don't trust the media to give the strait up story concerning both sides. Reminds me of Vietnam where kids were thrown into no win situations not knowing who was the enemy and who was going to kill them. Then they come home to have people spit on them and call them baby killers. Don't pass judgement or hand out penalties based on what the media says or what the government says went on without their knowledge. Watching the news, reading the paper, and reading website blogs doesn't make you informed. |

You have to take anything the media (it's NOT just 'liberals', you know)says with a huge grain of salt. | |
