I don't know who is telling the truth here. The FBI investigators were not there on the day in question. This former army guy was. And so were people who, if they were firing on the motorcade, wouldn't necessarily be truthful during interviews.

Indeed. Which goes to the original point I was making about Blackwater -- that using a private contractor like that to provide security undercuts the counterinsurgency mission. The military will do a better job of internalizing the conflicting demands.

I don't necessarily disagree. But the Govt. hired them to do the job. They did their job and the incident occurred. If the govt. doesn't think that its prudent to use them in the future, then so be it.
