A long time coming, but good that they received long sentences.

WASHINGTON — One by one, four former Blackwater security contractors wearing blue jumpsuits and leg irons stood before a federal judge on Monday and spoke publicly for the first time since a deadly 2007 shooting in Iraq.

The men had been among several private American security guards who fired into Baghdad’s crowded Nisour Square on Sept. 16, 2007, and last October they were convicted of killing 14 unarmed Iraqis in what prosecutors called a wartime atrocity. Yet on Monday, as they awaited sentences that they knew would send them to prison for most if not all of their lives, they defiantly asserted their innocence.

Justice would be handing them over to the Iraqis.

 

[ABikerSailor]

You know.......you're right Mr.B. Justice WOULD be handing them over to the Iraqis, because after all, the crime was committed in their country.

They were protecting American workers. You know how liberals hate American workers. Their greatest day was when American workers were disembowled and hanged from a bridge.

“Even though it’s a long time ago, it’s affecting us today.”



Former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chafee announced he was forming a presidential exploratory committee last week, and he’s wasting no time going after Hillary Clinton.

In an appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe Friday, he suggested that Hillary’s vote for the war in Iraq makes her a poor choice for president.
