Default Security contractors subject to U.S. prosecution

House moves to rein in security contractors - Politics - MSNBC.com

"WASHINGTON - The House passed a bill Thursday that would make all private contractors working in Iraq and other combat zones subject to prosecution by U.S. courts. It was the first major legislation of its kind to pass since a deadly shootout last month involving Blackwater employees."

It's about time.

Thanks for the update, this slipped under my radar. It's about damn time that these guys are held accountable for what they do.

Sadly, they wont be held accountable for the 11 people that they (may or may not have) shot in cold blood.

Yeah it's unclear whether or not U.S courts will have any jurisdiction in that incident or others before now.

It's perfectly clear. They wont.

No law can be passed in the US that applies retroactively.
