The following was sent to us by an anonymous source in Iraq:
"On [Christmas] eve (2006) here in the Green Zone a Blackwater employee got
into a scuffle with an Iraqi personal guard that was guarding a judge and shot him ten times and killed him. The Blackwater employee was drunk. Why did he have his weapon on him? He has been whisked out of Iraq as fast as possible so the local authorities could not get a hold of
him.Blackwater is trying to keep it all hush-hush so the media doesn't find out about it and dirty their already dirty reputation. Now all the Blackwater employees are pissed off cause they have installed a no alcohol ban on all Blackwater employees.
Spread the word. I hope a reporter gets a hold of this story and runs with it. Please, someone please start asking questions."
Blackwater do it again? Blackwater from Hillah 21 Feb 08. 1 Iraqi man shot in the head and killed, his wife wounded, shot in the head. Have Blackwater with US State Department knowledge already flown the three men responsible out of the country?
AP story from 9/23/07...
Blackwater guards fired unprovoked
"BAGHDAD - Iraqi investigators have a videotape that shows Blackwater USA guards opened fire against civilians without provocation in a shooting last week that left 11 people dead, a senior Iraqi official said Saturday."
Rumors, huh?
This is not a rumor fuckfaces...I have been in the IZ for 20 months...This is real

Like you whinning dogs. Look at the people who blow up innocents. How dare you bitch about a few collateral damage victims. The people act like terrorists treat them with what they deserve. Kill them and let God sort them out.
Interesting but so far is just a rumor. Could be worth following up but it's not like there haven't been plenty of other murders in Iraq.......

The Democracy Now program with Amy Goodman has audio of a Lawyer for Blackwater reluctantly confirming this story while being questioned by a member of congress. Many details still aren't public, but the event is no longer "a fucking RUMOR," as I.conoplastic so eloquently put it.
Blah blah blah. Its a rumor just like anything else. How do you know the Iraqi didn't draw a weapon first? You won't find out either cause nobody else is trying to persecute our own Americans except for you liberals!
i agree, all you have done is say something without any kind of proof, are you over there?, do you know how important blackwater personal is in the iraq war?..maybe there's some bad people i dunno, but blackwater contractors risk their life for things rather it's their family, or just cause they wanna make iraq a better place. so fuck off!
It could also be fake.
If there's a murder charge to hang on someone, let someone have the balls to step up and name names, places, dates and times, not vague rumors and unsubstantiated allegations.
WHO got killed? WHERE? Exactly WHEN? All we get is why and what here, nothing about the perp or the order to relocate him.
Absent these, it's a fucking RUMOR.
Does anyone know if any blogs are devoted to documenting the wanton slaughter perpetrated by the mercenary armies the US has sent to Iraq to kill civilians?
Maybe iraqslogger doesn't know about this, since the evil and anti-American Blackwater has been so diligent in covering up their atrocities. No US media would ever touch a story like this unless shamed into doing so by other non-mainstream media first.
If this is a real story and not some rumor, why is no other blog investigating?
How come iraqslogger.com doesn't have this?
Aren't there any details to this supposed murder you can provide besides vague accusations?
I have sent this to a contact with Senator Webb. Let's hope they do something with it.
