"SECURITY personnel from Blackwater USA have been involved in 56 shootings while guarding American diplomats in Iraq so far this year, the US State Department says."
"Reports on Thursday showed that Blackwater's rate of shootings was at least twice as high as those for other companies providing similar services to the State Department."
"In a separate issue a new study released on Thursday by Mr Waxman's oversight committee was highly critical of Blackwater's performance in a 2004 case in which four company contractors were killed in Fallujah in Iraq's Anbar province.
It said Blackwater had ignored "multiple warnings" of the dangers of going into Fallujah."

Seems to me there is something distinctly Iffy about Blackwater.
