‘Trophy’ video exposes private security contractors shooting up Iraqi drivers

Sean Rayment

A “trophy” video appearing to show security guards in Baghdad randomly shooting Iraqi civilians has sparked two investigations after it was posted on the internet, the Sunday Telegraph can reveal.

The video has sparked concern that private security companies, which are not subject to any form of regulation either in Britain or in Iraq, could be responsible for the deaths of hundreds of innocent Iraqis.</i>

An incident similar to this is what led to Iraqi’s hanging American contractors from bridges, which then led to our leveling Fallujah.

Here we go again?
