A couple of months ago some of you remember the video on the net showing video clips of shooting from a car against Iraqis in the streets while Elvis music was playing in the background. Now finally the security firm has confirmed it was their people in that car. Iraqis lives are worth nothing, have a look at the film once again and see how they shoot at innocent Iraqis. And their argument for doing it is that it might be an insurgent. So let’s start a security firm and move the business to London and Washington. Lets go around with guns and shoot who ever we believe is a threat to us. Then when people complain we’ll just deny it a couple of months call it anti propaganda news until we find the next step is to do an internal “investigation”. This will find that we have the right to protect ourselves even if we make “mistakes” and that it is the terrorist’s fault. If US people and British people don’t want to get killed well either leave the country or stay indoors because we aren’t leaving from your cities or streets; there is too much money profits for us to be made here for your lives to matter. But that is the truth that nobody talks about; no we are in your streets to protect you and since we are such a nice bunch of people you have to forgive us for shooting at you every now and then.
So this private army that runs around in Iraq, how long will Iraqi politicians continue holding them immune as Bremer wanted? I guess as long as our politicians know that they would be leaving Iraq ASAP if it wasn’t for these occupation troops and their mercenaries protecting them day and night.
Iraq is a mess, and in the corridors of power there are ugly games of personal gain going on, profits on all levels are being made while ordinary Iraqis blood is flooding the neighbourhood's streets every second of the day.

Hi Nadia,
Pela liberdade de todos os povos do mundo!!!
Pela liberdade de cada indivíduo!!!
Bjos.
urbanoideiluminado, nice words.
However with regards to Iraq I don’t feel that contractors/mercenaries, occupation troops or Iraqi political parties militias are protecting freedom they are just protecting their own greedy interests and with it committing war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Thank’s for stopping by!
I think you have these people wrong. You are thinking of these people like they are like you, like they have similar codes of ethics and beliefs in society. You have to imagine a man who has nothing in his life but thrill intrigue and weapons, these are merceneries they don't believe in a society at all. They are put there by yet more men, if a little older, who have such a distorted view of the world they don't care for a future of it. No-one involved in any of the affairs going on in Iraq have the tiniest care for any Iraqi, it's obvious to anyone willing to see the grand scope of things. Why can't people see this? No one cares, no one in ultimate authority in america, in britain, in france give's a $hi£ about the people, it's all bo££ock$. The world is an overcrowded corporate run slave camp. There's no democracy in the west it's a mirage, always has been. The ruling powers have their own agenda and they do it. They do just enough to stop the people boiling over. Never Underestimate The Lenghts That These So Called Governments Will Go To.
Good post, as per usual. The "we'll investigate " BS also makes me angry. Unfortunately a lot of people seem to fall for it.
Bruno,
Nowadays the first thing that comes to my mind when someone says "democracy" is "we'll investigate". I mean Saddam was a fool not to make Iraq a democracy, he could still rule Iraq and just say “we’ll investigate” and when someone disagrees with him he’ll just say as Blair say “that is the beauty of democracy you can say what you want” and then he still does as he has decided.
Many of the democracies are acting as dictatorships these days. Here in Sweden there are talks about having teachers report on their students views, spying on people etc etc. I feel like I am back in Iraq in the 80:s and it scares me. It took me many years to feel okey speaking openly on the phone and gues what now what I thought had to do with dictatorship will start in Sweden, phone tapping.
i,
You are right the world is overcrowded and we are only getting more. This reminded me of a discussion I had with my husband about can the world go on with only the western countries people on this planet?
the people against people, divide and conquer, divide and conquer, divide and conquer, again and again the ruling power deals out propoganda BS and the people run around suspicious of everyone around them and we all fall for it, look the immigrants are invading, look over there bird flu everyone for themselves, whoaa look out he could be a terrorist, foot and mouth, BSE oooh the food commision is now our enemy, i love you all and i will not be separated from you by these lies, lies, lies.
I call these contractors "Merchants of Wars". I have another name I call them with but I prefer to keep inside me better than reveal it. On the way to work, once they were about to shoot just to protect an American official jerk. Iraqis blood is cheaper than his.
Baghdad Treasure, on Swedish TV they showed a short documentary about these "Merchants of Wars" more then a year ago, they focused on an Italian guy. This guy in my view should have been forbidden to have any weapon, he acted as if he was in a video game and a Hollywood film, and he was the "cool guy" with a "licence to kill" any Iraqi.
