Iraq revokes security contractor license after shootout

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, considering that the US relies so heavily on Blackwater for security in Iraq.... will the US simply ignore the Iraqi government? Will Blackwater continue operations under a new corporate identity? I don't see them just pulling out...

I know what you are saying but it is all academic really as the Iraqi resistance is destroying piecemeal the American and stooges army.

Usa cannot last long past next year due to military and financial impossibilities.

that thinking only works if you presume the goal isnt to cause as much mayhem as possible and string out the conflict for long enough to get the military bases built and remove all the mineral resources before starting on the neighbours.
