Go to this link to view a video of private security contractors in Iraq apparently randomly machine gunning people/vehicles on roads in Iraq. The Department of Defense(DOD) in the past month released this statement about the investigation into the shootings: "The U.S. military has concluded its investigation into a video that appeared to show private security contractors shooting at civilian vehicles on highways in Iraq and determined that no one involved will be charged with a crime, a military spokesman in Baghdad said. The investigation, which officials have not released publicly, began after the video was posted on an Internet site purportedly run by employees of Aegis Defense Services, a London-based firm with a $293 million U.S. government security contract." Oh yeah, the video is set to an Elvis Presley song, maybe that made it OK with DOD. http://www.crooksandliars.com/2005/11/27.html#a6076
