The US Justice Department is trying its Blackwater slayings case in the newspapers. The Doser sees that as another reason that the government's case must be weak. The first reason is that they charged the men with manslaughter for a case which would have brought a murder charge - if the government had the case it is touting to the press.
The fired Republic Windows and Doors workers, of Chicago, Illinois, are trying to revive a revered historic conduct that could constipate the down-sizing process. It is the worker sit-in! The Doser thinks it may be successful ..... but only if Republic wants to make windows and doors more than it wants to stiff its workers.

Blackwater is part of the approximately 130,000 mercenaries that we have in Iraq and there has been some question about whether they are subject to military regs or if they above the law and need only abide by their own rules. If I were curious I would wonder where their funding comes from.
(C)ould (I) (A)dventure a guess ?
Blackwater has been hired by various companies and organizations (to include our Govt). They do what our military is not resourced to do, personal security of execs, NGOs and VIPs. I have seen some of their work, and was not impressed with their recklace and undisciplined behavior and tactics. They do fall under military jurisdiction, but this was not the case when this incident occured. This was one of the reasons they are.
Until that barn door was shut, the Guh-ment of course lacked any information that mercenaries have often acted in ways that suggest the need for a close rein on them.
