Newspaper: Blackwater guards get target letters
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON --Half a dozen Blackwater Worldwide security guards have gotten target letters from the Justice Department in a probe of shootings in Baghdad that killed 17 Iraqis, The Washington Post reported.

The Blackwater guards are caught up in the investigation of shootings that took place last September when a Blackwater team arrived in several vehicles at an intersection in Baghdad where shooting erupted, leaving numerous Iraqis dead and wounded.

The Post described the six guards as former U.S. military personnel, but did not identify them by name.

1. Sample "target letter":
Dear Sir:

Please arrange a meeting with your fellow war-crimes offenders for the purpose of defining and refining your cover story. This will help us all put this whole dirty little incident behind us.

Thank you,
signed prosecutor xxxx


PS:
Remember: consistency, consistency, consistency!
