The good news about Blackwater is that as terrible as these allegations of atrocities may be, they have at least prompted the Iraqi government to stand up against an American company on behalf of their own people. This was an assertion of sovereignty by the Iraqi leaders, and it is this kind of strength that is needed if there is to be a new Iraq.
George W. may not have meant it for something like this, but this is an example of the Iraqi people standing up, so that we can stand down.
