Another Bush lie revealed
If Iraq is a sovereign state as Bush has been claiming for several years the Blackwater narrative would be entirely different. The very definition of a soverign state requires that its government have a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. If this were so, there would be no controversy and negotiations about whether Blackwater will continue to play a role in Iraq. Furthermore, there would be no question at all over whether Blackwater is answerable to Iraq's justice system.
