BlackWater - Condi's Criminal Conspiracy

What's the penalty for shooting up an intersection, killing 17 innocent people? If you're BlackWater, nothing. The State Department issued blanket immunity to all of the shooters before the FBI investigation had even began. We will probably never know how BlackWater thugs persuaded the State Department (It would be a shame if the next time our weapons discharge they are pointing at the ambassador's car instead of away from it. Get my drift?).

Actually, as you read through, the story line becomes familiar: in an effort to determine the truth of a matter, immunity is granted to those involved, to encourage full cooperation. (With an exception retained for particularly gross offenders.) In other circumstances this would be called a "truth and reconciliation commission." South Africa set up one after apartheid fell. The same arrangement is fairly common in America in certain types of investigations. This is not the shocking news its being made out to be.
