The "trophy" video scandal

I know a couple of private security guards in Iraq -- truly honourable men doing dangerous and difficult work.

Unfortunately, this gives them all a bad name and is otherwise truly repugnant: "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."

Nice, eh?
