The guards of the minister of the displaced people and migrant opened fire randomly in downtown Baghdad. They killed a woman and injured six other civilians just because they wanted to open the street to pass quickly although the minister was not in the convoy. In Fact, he is not even in Iraq. The man is discussing the situations of the displaced Iraqi families in Ukraine. Isn't that odd? He is discussing the issue of the displaced families in Ukraine while his guards are killing innocent people in downtown Baghdad. The story reminded me of the crime of the Blackwater; the American private security company The only difference is the guards who opened fire we arrested. As an Iraqi; I really felt happy that the Iraqi forces responded quickly and arrested the guards and I hope to see them in court so soon.
We don't need Iraqi Blackwater. The wounds of the American Blackwater is still bleeding. I pray to see both the American Blackwater and any Iraqi Blackwater in One court. Free death must be stopped
dear anonymous
the investigations reports, the survivers and the eyewitnesses confirmed that there was no threat at all. The Blackwater guards killed innocent people for nothing. So, This is not a quick judge please try to be rational.
With Respect

First of all,why is everyone so quick to judge right away.Is it a fact that we know Guards from Blackwater just opened fire to get people out of their way, or were these people a threat that one of them could have been a suicide bomber, trying to get close to set off a bomb or throw a grenade or something of that fact?!The enviornment in Baghdad if youv'e alreday forgotten, is very hostile and at dead risk everywhere you turn.PLease Narrowminded people, let's get all the facts in before we start to judge.

When did this happen and who were the guards working for when they killed the civilians? I mean, what company where the guards working for, if not Blackwater? Also, I think at least one or two people from Blackwater may be convicted of murder from the Nisour Square massacres.

I am going to a protest this weekend against Blackwater. It is in Winston-Salem, NC.
They are murderers. They need to be brought to justice.
