Welcome To Your New World Order

A world where the State Department decides who gets tried for murder.

WASHINGTON - The State Department promised Blackwater USA bodyguards immunity from prosecution in its investigation of last month’s deadly shooting of 17 Iraqi civilians, The Associated Press has learned.

As a result, it will likely be months before the United States can — if ever — bring criminal charges in the case that has infuriated the Iraqi government.

“Once you give immunity, you can’t take it away,” said a senior law enforcement official familiar with the investigation.

And once you give a runaway executive power, you're not going to be very successful in taking it away, either. Oversight is good but it only goes so far without accountability.

Lawless bastards.
